English Translation
Children of the Sun
I am a son of the Sun, going to those of my race.
I'm one of the children of the Sun, going to my people
I'm a child of the sun, coming for a purpose.
I'’ve come to find and gather the people of the Inca nation.
My purpose is to teach our values, and our Quechua language.
Inca child, like myself, in what country are you crying?
Child of the Sun, like myself, listen to my cry
If you listen to my calling, come back to our homeland and culture.
If you listen my calling, come back with our people and remake our nation.
I want to teach my people our traditions:
Don'’t steal, don'’t be lazy, don'’t lie, and don'’t be dirty.
Neither steal, nor be lazy, so that we may live well.
Be truthful and clean, so we won'’t be lost.
Inca people, you are alone in this world, hold my hand.
Inca child, you are not part of this world, come home with me.
If you come and hold my hand, I'’ll take you to our homeland.
If you come with me, I’'ll teach you our Inca language.
Death o death, do not take me away yet,
I still have a long way to go, I'm searching for my people.
I still have a long way to go, teaching the Inca way.
Traducción a Castellano
Los Hijos del Sol
Soy un hijo del Sol, que voy en busca de mi raza.
Soy uno de los hijos del Sol, que voy hácia mi gente.
Yo soy el hijo del Sol, que he venido por una razón
He venido en busca de mi gente de la nación Inca.
Mi propósito es enseñar nuestros valores, y nuestro idioma Quechua.
Niño Inca, como yo, en qué pueblo estás llorando?
Hijo del Sol, como yo, escucha a ésta mi llamada.
Si escuchas a ésta mi llamada, regresa a nuestra tierra y nuestra cultura.
Si escuchas a ésta mi llamada, regresa con nuestra gente y rehagamos nuestra nación.
He venido para enseñar a la gente nuestras tradiciones:
No robar, no ser flojo, no mentir, y no ser sucio.
No robar ni ser flojo, para que de esa manera vivamos bien.
Ser honesto y limpio, de ese modo no andemos perdidos.
Gente Inca, que te encuentras sólo en éste mundo, tómame la mano.
Niño Inca, que no formas parte de éste mundo, ven conmigo a casa.
Si tú vienes y me tomas la mano, te llevaré a nuestra tierra, con lo nuestro.
Si tú vienes conmigo, te enseñaré nuestro idioma Inca.
Muerte o muerte, todavía no me lleves.
Aún tengo mucho que caminar, ando buscando mi gente.
Aún tengo mucho por recorrer, enseñando el idioma Quechua.

Let Her Leave (My pigeon)
Let my little pigeon fly away, she did not appreciate my love.
When she gets to a dry lake, she will wander around looking for water to drink.
When she rests up on a dry tree, she will fly from branch to branch looking for food.
She will pay for the tears of her lover, crying like a river, like the rain.
Traducción a Castellano
Déjala que se Vaya (esa paloma)
Que se vaya esa paloma, ella no supo hacerse querer conmigo.
Cuando llegue a una laguna seca, allí en la pampa va estar rodando buscando agua.
Cuando llegue a un árbol seco sin hojas, de rama en rama va estar volando.
Pagará las lágrimas de su amado llorando como el río o como la lluvia.

Sun of the Andes of the Aymaras and the Quechuas,
Rain from heaven, flight of condors,
When I see you again my hair will be like the Illimani*
Taita Inti*, Pachamama*, I am your son,
On my knees I implore you for my happiness.
Where are you my brothers, glory of the earth,

We want to live to sing your praises.

Juanito - Bolivian Song
Walking with his llama, his woollen bag full of dried meet and dried potato,
Juanito is going to the festival in the plains.
Skirts of all colours at the festival in the plains.
Little guitars play the rhythms of the high platau.
After walking so long, he fell asleep in the shade of a tree.
During his short nap his llama ate his food
and in his dream his llama ate all the dried meat and potatoes.
Juanito was so surprised that his dream was true.
"Why have you eaten it all, little llama?
Now I'll be hungry, I'm going to complain to the everything around us.
When Juanito arrived at the festival, he began to sing and drink the local beer.
He invites his llama to share his drink from his bowl, to forget their hunger.
After drinking so many bowls, the llama and Juanito are completely drunk.
They now return to the village, happily, drunkenly, dancing and whistling.
Juanito - Canción Boliviana
Va marchando su llamita Juanito, su c'huspita lleno de charque y chuño;
p'ala pampa fiesta, polleras multicolores, p'ala pampa fiesta sicuris charanguitos.
Después de tanto caminar Juanito, a la sombra de un arbolito duerme y en su corto sueño,
su llamita comió el charque y en su corto sueño su llamita comió el chuño.
Tanto fue la sorpresa de Juanito que su sueño a sido realidad,
por que has comido, llamita, ahora tengo hambre, a la pampa Mamita ahora me voy a quejar.
Llegando a la pampa fiesta Juanito, va cantando y tomando chichita,
en su tutumita invita a su llamita, para olvidar todo el hambre que tenían.
Machaditos la llamita y Juanito, después de tomar tantas tutumitas,
ahora se van al pueblo, muy contentos y machados,
ahora se van al pueblo bailando y silvando.

Kechwa song "Solischa"
Sulischallay sulis, tustuncallay tustun
¿Mayqin tindapitah sinsillamuykiman?
Iskina tindayuh, hamunki niwaran;

Translation of "Solischa"
Money, my small change, just forty cents.
Where should I go to spend it?
The owner of the store on the corner asked me
to have some chicha* with him.
I think I shouldn't go, and I shouldn't spend it
with someone who I don't know.
Money, my few coins, just forty cents.
I want to buy things but it isn't enough,
My little coins, your so few.
I feel disappointed.
*note: chicha is a drink of fermented corn
Traducción de "Solischa"
Soles* solecitos míos, cuarenta centavitos míos;
¿en cual de las tiendas voy a gastarlos?
El dueño de la tienda en la esquina me dijo que fuera
a tomar chicha con él, hasta emborracharnos.
¡Qué voy a ir yo! ¡Qué voy a beber yo!
con gente desonocida, con gente que no conozco.
Mi dinero, mis pocos centavos, cuarenta centavitos.
¿En cúal tienda te voy a gastar?
Soles, solecitos míos, me duele el corazón.
Cuando quiero comprar y no alcanzas casi para nada.

LUCHIN, Cancion Chilena
Por Victor Jara.
Fragíl como un volantín en los techos de Barranca,
jugaba el niño Luchín con sus manitos moradas,
Con la pelota de trapo, con el gato y con el perro,
y el caballo lo miraba...
En el agua de sus ojos se bañaba el verde claro,
gateaba a su corta edad con el potito embarrado,
Con la pelota de trapo, con el gato y con el perro,
y el caballo lo miraba...
El caballo era otro juego en aquel pequeño espacio,
y al animal parecía le gustaba ese trabajo,
Con la pelota de trapo, con el gato y con el perro,
y con Luchito mojado...
Si hay niños como Luchín que comen tierra y gusanos,
abramos todas las jaulas pa' que vuelen como pájaros,
Con la pelota de trapo, con el gato y con el perro,
y también con el caballo.
Quechua translation of Luchin
Waira apananpaq hina chay Barrancas
wasi patapi uchuk Luchucha chiri kulli makichantin pukllachian
Chay saqsa pelotanhuan, misinhuan, allgonhuan,
caballotaq qawachian.
Chay ñawin yakunpitaq armaykun chay chuya
qomeruchuk wawaqa lloqayqaña map'a sikichantin
Chay saqsa pelotanhuan, misinhuan, allgonhuan,
caballotaq qawachian.
Caballopas kasqa wawak pukllananpaq
chaypiuywamantaq malliiqa llamkaynin
Chay saqsa pelotanhuan, misinhuan, allgonhuan,
Luchuchapas uqu sikintin.
Kichasun llapallan jaulakunata fawanankunapaq
pisqokuna hina.
Chay saqsa pelotanhuan, misinhuan, allgonhuan,
caballontinpas fawanankunapaq.
English translation of Luchin
Song from a shanty town on the outskirts of Santiago, Chile.
Fragile like a kite over the roofs of his town,
little Luchín played, his small hands blue with cold,
With a ball made out of rags, with a cat and with a dog,
a horse looked on...
His tears bathed his clear green eyes,His little body crawled along,
with its mud stained bottom,
With the rag ball, with the cat and with the dog,
and the horse looked on...
The horse was another playmate in that small space,
and the animal seemed to like that job,
With the rag ball, with the cat and with the dog,
and with little Luchín all wet and cold.
If there are other children like Luchín, eating earth and worms like hungry birds,
then lets open their cages so they may fly like birds,
With the rag ball, with the cat and with the dog,
and also with the horse.

Dreams of a Deer
Little deer, little deer, you are far from home.
You are crying like me, remembering your friends from the herd.
Little dear, little deer, you have come this far.
You are sad like me, remembering the mountains of your home.
You keep repeating "I’m leaving, I’m going back",
but they tied up your feet so you can not go back.
You keep saying I’m escaping, I’m going,
But they tied up your feet, so you can not escape.
But I’ll help you escape, I’m coming at midnight,
we will leave together.
Yes, you still can escape, I’m coming when the rooster crows,
we can escape together.
When we get to our mountains we’ll met our group,
we will sing and dance with the other deers.
When we get to our plains and return to our home,
we will talk and enjoy ourselves among all our relatives.

English Translation: "Who are the real Terrorists?"
By Ada Gibbons
The people in power call us terrorists.
They do the killing, then put the blame on us.
Andean brothers, this is nothing new.
As long as we are poor, we are unjustly accused.
Andean brothers, this is nothing new.
Our people suffer so much injustice.
Brothers, don't believe the government officials.
Brothers, don't trust those military people.
They are the ones who kill and torture us,
then blame it on the guerrillas.
They are the ones who kill and torture us,
because of that we should fight united.
Wake up Brothers, it's time to live.
Get up my people, and give us a hug,
For soon the masked soldiers will be here,
They will kill us, then wash their hands.
¿Quienes son los Verdaderos Terroristas?
Por Ada Gibbons
Los grandes nos acusan de ser terroristas.
Entre ellos se matan y luego nos hechan la culpa.
Hermanos del Ande eso no les sorprenda.
Mientras que seamos pobres nos culparan de algo.
Hermanos del Ande eso no les sorprenda.
Nuestros pueblos sufren muchas injusticias.
No crean hermanos a esos gobernantes.
No confien hermanos en esos militares.
Son los que nos matan, son los que nos torturan,
para luego culpar a los guerrilleros.
Son los que nos matan, son los que nos torturan,
por eso hermanos luchemos unidos.
Depierten hermanos que es hora de irnos.
Despierta mi pueblo denos un abrazo.
Ya muy pronto llegan cachacos enmascarados,
nos mataran a todos y se lavaran las manos.
