La exiliada del sur


Un ojo dejé en Los Lagos
por un descuido casual,
el otro quedó en Parral
en un boliche de tragos,
recuerdo que mucho estrago
de niña vio el alma mía,
miserias y alevosías
anudan mis pensamientos,
entre las aguas y el viento
me pierdo en la lejanía.

Mi brazo derecho en Buín
quedó, señores oyentes,
el otro en San Vicente
quedó, no sé con qué fin;
mi pecho en Curacautín
lo veo en un jardincillo,
mis manos en Maitencillo
saludan en Pelequén,
mi falda en Perilauquén
recoge unos pececillos.

Se m'enredó en San Rosendo
un pie el cruzar una esquina,
el otro en la Quiriquina
se me hunde mares adentro,
mi corazón descontento
latió con pena en Temuco
y me ha llorado en Calchuco,
de frío por una escarcha,
voy y enderezo mi marcha
a la cuesta 'e Chacabuco.

Mis nervios dejo en Granero,
la sangr'en San Sebastián,
y en la ciudad de Chillán
la calma me bajó a cero,
mi riñonada en Cabrero
destruye una caminata
y en una calle de Itata
se me rompió el estrumento,
y endilgo pa Nacimiento
una mañana de plata.

Desembarcando en Riñihue
se vio a la Violeta Parra,
sin cuerdas en la guitarra,
sin hojas en el colihue;
una banda de chirigües
le vino a dar un concierto;
con su hermanito Roberto
y Cochepe forman un trío
que cant'al orilla del río
y en el vaivén de los puertos.

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Inti-Illimani is a Latin American folk music ensemble from Chile, formed in 1967 by a group of university students. The group gained widespread popularity in Chile for their song «Venceremos» (We shall win!), which became the anthem of Salvador Allende's Popular Unity government. At the time of the September 11, 1973 Chilean coup, Inti-Illimani was on tour in Europe and was unable to return to their country where their music was proscribed by the ruling military junta. In Europe, their music took on a multifarious character, incorporating elements of European baroque and other traditional music forms to their rich and colourful Latin American rhythms - creating a distinctive fusion of modern world music. Inti-Illimani is perhaps the best internationally known members of the nueva cancion movement. Their name means 'Sun of the Illimani' in Aymara. Illimani is the name of a mountain in the Bolivian Andes. Representative tracks include: «Venceremos», «El pueblo unido jamás será vencido», «La flor de la vida».
