Lyrics
Cuchillo 'e palo, platillo y loza,
ollita de barro, se le he comprado,
se le he comprado, a mi concinera
Y con mi caja vengo cantando,
coplas de Tilcara por que ya estamos,
por que ya estamos, en el medio del carnaval
Planta de ají, planta y tomate,
'onde estará mi concinerita ay, tomando mate? (bis)
Por que suspira mi fin de fiesta
a Doña Pispira, 'onde convidan,
'onde convidan, con queso de cabra
Hojita de coca, rami molido,
ramito de albahaca, se le he comprado
se le he comprado, a mi cocinera
Planta de ají, planta y tomate,
'onde estará mi concinerita ay, tomando mate? (bis)
Lyrics translation
Knife ' e stick, saucer and crockery,
clay pot, I bought it,
I bought it from my concinera.
And with my box I come singing,
Tilcara couples because we're already,
'cause we're already in the middle of the carnival
Pepper plant, plant and tomato,
'where Will my concinerite ay be, taking mate? (bis)
'Cause she sighs my end of the party
Dona Pispira, ' where they invite,
'onde invitan, with goat cheese
Coca leaf, ground rami,
basil sprig, I bought it.
I bought it from my cook.
Pepper plant, plant and tomato,
'where Will my concinerite ay be, taking mate? (bis)
