The Legend of the Huagapo Grotto
way up
The mountains of Peru
Between the walls of the Andes
Deep in the Palcamayo Valley in Tarma
There is a big round hole.
On the side of a mountain,
God help the person
Who gets lost in the Huagapo Grotto!
had me engaged
in the city of Tama
However, she had
supernatural forms:
she made me look
as if it wasn’t necessary
Like fish and bats
In the cave of Huagapo…
I discovered it-
Saturday night
with a partner
They call him bad Diego
the strongest man
in all the andes
I’d be better off fighting
A wild condor in the Huagapo cave!
That’s why I told them-
Your gonna pay
because I’m going to put
You in your grave!
So I stabbed him in the belly
Then he dragged it back
half dead and bleeding
To the cave of Huagapo!
I could not live
the way you treated me
I guess this showed him
I was bold and brave.
now i’m the most
Wanted man, in all the Andes
However, they will never find me.
As I am lost, in the cave of Huagapo!…

Spanish version
The Legend of the Huagapo Grotto
Well come to the mountains of Peru
Between the walls of the Andes
Deep in the Palcamayo Valley in Tarma,
There is a huge round hole
down the side of a mountain
God help the person who gets lost
In the Huagapo Grotto!
I had a girlfriend
In the city of Tarma, well
She had an absurd way:
she made me lucid
as if he were anyone
like fish and bats
In the Huagapo Grotto…
I discovered her -Saturday night-
with a boy
The one they called Diego “El Malo”
The strongest man in all the Andes
It would have been better if I had fought
With a wild condor
At the Huagapo Grotto!
So, I said it has the-
You are going to pay it
Because I’m going to put you in your grave!
Then I stabbed him in the stomach
And I dragged it back
half dead and bleeding,
In the Huagapo Grotto!
I couldn’t live like she brought me
I imagine this showed her
That I was brave and courageous.
Now be the man
Most wanted in all the Andes
Although, they will never find me
Since I’m lost
In the Huagapo Grotto!…
