De los aires vallenatos

La puya es la más templá
The puja is the most templá
Creo que vengo preparado
I think I come prepared
Para poderla ejecutá
To be able to execute it
Aunque muy poco es grabá
Although very little is recorded
Dizque porque no se vende
So it is not for sale
Pero hay que tener presente
But you have to keep in mind
Que hay que saberla tocá
What is there to know?
La puya vallenata esta olvidá
The puya vallenata is forgotten
Porque nadie la quiere ya grabá
Because nobody wants it, record it
Con la puya se alegra el Festival
With the puja the Festival rejoices
Sin la puya no se puede ganá
Without the puja you cannot win
Canto y toco el acordeón
I sing and play the accordion
Que es la unica herencia mía
What is my only inheritance
Quiero mucho este folclor
I love this folklore
Que es parte de mi alegría
Which is part of my joy
Por eso sigo tocando
That's why i keep playing
Son, paseo, merengue y puya
They are, paseo, meringue and puja
Como soy buen provinciano
As I am a good provincial
La toco con sabrosura
I touch it with flavor
La puya vallenata esta olvidá
The puya vallenata is forgotten
Porque nadie la quiere ya grabá
Because nobody wants it, record it
Con la puya se alegra el Festival
With the puja the Festival rejoices
Sin la puya no se puede ganá
Without the puja you cannot win
