Letra del Vals Pampa y cielo

Un ranchito clavado allá en la loma
Con su alero mirando al infinito,
A lo lejos, silbando está el boyero
Y mientras tanto el tero,
Con su andar ligero, va pegando el grito…

El rocío que humedeció los pastos
Se levanta en cuanto asoma el sol,
Y el hornero, revoloteando ansioso
Hará su nido hermoso,
Donde muy gozoso, cantará su amor…

Paz, hogar, trabajo y felicidad
Va brindando el campo en su soledad,
Ya los hombres con sus cantos al amor, volverán
Y los discos del arado, con ardor hundirán.
Luz de sol, brillando en la inmensidad
Con su gran fulgor.
Nuestra tierra, es tierra plena de esperanza
De cariño y de bonanza, cuna eterna del valor…
Nuestra tierra, es tierra plena de esperanza
De cariño y de bonanza, cuna eterna del valor.

Ya la pampa se doblará de trigo
Y el jilguero entonará su canto,
Y la vida bajo el azul del cielo
Con el calor del suelo,
Colmará su anhelo, alejará su llanto…

La calandria redoblará sus trinos
Y a su canto responderá el zorzal,
Y en los campos, el hombre entusiasmado
Arreando su ganado,
Reza emocionado, la canción triunfal…

English lyrics of the Vals "Pampa y cielo"

A little ranch nailed up there on the hill
With its eave looking out into the infinite,
In the distance, the cowherd is whistling
And meanwhile the lapwing,
With its brisk walk, goes about shouting…

The dew that moistened the pastures
Rises up as soon as the sun peeks,
And the ovenbird, fluttering anxiously
Will make its beautiful nest,
Where, very joyous, it will sing its love…

Peace, home, work and happiness
The countryside offers in its solitude,
Now men with their songs to love, will return
And the plow discs, with zeal will delve.
Sunlight, shining in the vastness
With its great brightness.
Our land, is land full of hope
Of affection and abundance, eternal cradle of courage…
Our land, is land full of hope
Of affection and abundance, eternal cradle of courage.

Soon the plains will bend with wheat
And the goldfinch will sing its song,
And life under the blue sky
With the warmth of the soil,
Will fulfill its yearning, will drive away its tears…

The lark will redouble its warbles
And the thrush will respond to its song,
And in the fields, the excited man
Driving his cattle,
Prays, moved, the triumphant song…

The mention of local birds and the daily rhythm of sunrise and agricultural labor reflects a deep appreciation and reverence for the simple, yet profound life of rural Argentina.
