[Intro: Mercedes Sosa & Soledad]
So much time under your uncle, right?
(I’m taking the raft downriver, downriver, through the Upper Paraná)
How long I knew him, huh?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, we’re going into “Jangadero,” right?
Jangadero, jangadero
Of course, it has to be on the first page, huh?

[Verse 1: Milo j]
I’m carrying the raft downriver
Downriver, through the Upper Paraná
It’s the weight of the collapsed shadow

That will descend, searching for the horizon
Downriver, downriver, downriver
At the surface of the water, I’m bleeding this song
In the dream of life and work
My heart turns into a water hyacinth

[Pre-Chorus: Mercedes Sosa]
Raft, raft

[Chorus: Mercedes Sosa, Mercedes Sosa & Milo j]
My destiny on the river is to drift
From the depths of the lumberyard
With the longing for the water that goes away
From the depths of the lumberyard
With the longing for the water that goes away

[Verse 2: Mercedes Sosa & Milo j, Mercedes Sosa & Milo j]
Father river, your scales of living gold
Are the fever that takes me further
I follow your fugitive horizon
And the blood with the water It’s leaving me
Band, band, sun and moon, sky and water
Mirage that never passes
Skin of mud, fabulous lampalagua
The passion for sailing consumes me

[Pre-Chorus: Mercedes Sosa]
Jangadero, jangadero
Jangadero, jangadero

[Chorus: Mercedes Sosa]
My destiny on the river is to drift (Jangadero)
From the depths of the lumberyard
With the longing for the water that goes away
From the depths of the lumberyard
With the longing for the water
That goes away

[Outro: Mercedes Sosa & Milo j]
We got it in one, eh
It came out in one, eh, hahaha
Thank you very much (How beautiful)
How beautiful, no, no, beautiful, beautiful
How beautiful
I see you, I dream of you, and I miss you
