Cuando viene de la Paz algÚn amigo
When some friend comes from Peace
Le pregunto si ha visto a Miguel Canales
I ask him if he has seen Miguel Canales
Dicen que en la montaña está perdido
They say that in the mountain he is lost
Que tiene mucho tiempo que no sale
That has a lot of time that does not come out
De su vida, de su vida, no se sabe
Of his life, of his life, it is not known
Porque Migue, en la montaña está perdido
Because Migue, in the mountains is lost
Dicen que tiene barba como un padre
They say he has a beard like a father
Dicen que tiene el pelo como un indio
They say he has hair like an Indian
Ay! que le estará pasando al pobre Migue
Alas! what will be happening to poor Migue
Que tiene mucho tiempo que no sale
That has a lot of time that does not come out
Apuesto a que si sabe que Yo vine
I bet you know I came.
De la motaña sale el pobre Migue
From the mountain comes poor Migue
Decíle que lo espero aquí en la Paz
Tell him that I wait for you here in La Paz
Que si no viene aquí yo voy allá
That if he doesn't come here I'll go there
Cuando sigo, cuando sigo preguntando
When I follow, when I keep asking
Me dicen que no tiene cuando venir
They tell me he has no time to come
Porque se ha convertido en hermitaño
Because he has become a hermit
De la montaña no quiere salir
He doesn't want to leave the mountain
Me le dicen, me le dicen a Miguel
They tell me, they tell me Miguel
Que se deje, que se deje ver la cara
Let him let himself be seen, let his face be seen
Qué si no viene aquí, yo voy por él
What if he doesn't come here, I'll go for him
Antes que se lo trague la montaña
Before the mountain swallows it
Que le estará pasando al pobre Migue
What will be happening to poor Migue
Que tiene mucho tiempo que no sale
That has a lot of time that does not come out
Apuesto a que si sabe que Yo vine
I bet you know I came.
De la motaña sale el pobre Migue
From the mountain comes poor Migue
Decíle que lo espero aquí en la Paz
Tell him that I wait for you here in La Paz
Que si no viene aquí yo voy allá
That if he doesn't come here I'll go there
