Below, I translated the lyrics of the song El Encuentro by Los Tipitos from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Rumbeando para Jáchal montao en burro talón y talón
Rumbeando for Jáchal riding a donkey heel and heel
Yo me encontré una dama solita su alma por el cañadón
I found a lonely lady with her soul in the canyon
Ahí nomás a la sombra y en las orillas de aquel arenal
Just there in the shade and on the shores of that sandbank
Se apareció rechoncha como una reina de aquel jarillal
She appeared plump as a queen of that jarillal
El que la dejó solita, de mí no se ha de quejar
The one who left her alone will not complain about me
No desprecio al que me invita y a las damas sé tratar
I do not despise the one who invites me and I know how to treat the ladies
Soy de Jáchal pa más señita, bien livianita conmigo ha de andar
I'm from Jáchal for more lady, very light with me she has to walk
Le acaricié su cuello, su lindo cuerpo temblando tanteé
I caressed her neck, her pretty body trembling I groped
Y en un envión sediento, mirando al cielo su boca besé
And in a thirsty jerk, looking at the sky, I kissed her mouth
Les diré que la dama de aquel encuentro por el cañadón
I will tell you that the lady from that meeting in the canyon
Era una damajuana con diez litritos de buen semillón
She was a demijohn with ten liters of good seed
Cuando voy y cuando vengo desde Jáchal a San Juan
When I go and when I come from Jáchal to San Juan
Con mi burro me entretengo siempre con el mismo afán
With my donkey I always entertain myself with the same eagerness
De encontrar un tonel bien lleno con vino bueno del viejo San Juan.
To find a well-filled barrel with good wine from old San Juan
