Canción del derrumbe indio [English translation]

Close, close to my heart,

close, close to me.

Charango, charanguito

What sweet voice!

Help me grieve

the joy I lost.

Charango, charanguito

What sweet voice!

I had an Empire of the Sun,

large and happy.

The white man took it from me,

charanguito.

My fallen people cry

for another civilization.
