El changuito cañero [English translation]

Early in the morning

the kid goes with his dad,

they go wandering to the furrow

to peel canes of Tucuman.

The little girl cooks while,

his mom is washing,

and in the distance are heard

the machetes slashes in the reedbed

His dad is cutting and

the kid is collecting,

to load the carts

that will go to the sugar cane mill

The day is over,

there goes the kid with his dad,

and at the ranch are awaiting

mate cocido and hot bread
