about

And La Pomeña is a famous zamba that tells the story of a COPLERA in carnival times. The author of the lyrics was Manuel J. Castilla and the music was the work of Gustavo "Cuchi" Leguizamón. Eulogia Tapia currently lives in a field post, just far from the town of La Poma, in the north of Salta.
The beautiful of Alba's voice enhances the Leguizamon's composition as well as the delicate acoustic guitar interpreted by Romanian/American guitarist Gabriel Datcu. All the graphic material was created by Mexican artist Esperanza Gama, Esperanza made this beautiful cover inspired in Alba Guerra with whom we all had the luck to share not only a SHORT PERIOD OF OUR LIVES but also something for ever " FRIENDSHIP"

lyrics

Eulogia Tapia in La Poma
Eulogia Tapia en La Poma

To the air gives its tenderness
Al aire da su ternura

If S he pases on the sand
Si pasa sobre la arena

The wheat that she is cutting
El trigo que va cortando

Matures by her waist
Madura por su cintura

Looking at alfalfa flowers
Mirando flores de alfalfa

His black eyes turn blue
Sus ojos negros se azulan

Looking at alfalfa flowers
Mirando flores de alfalfa

His black eyes turn blue
Sus ojos negros se azulan

The willow tree in her house
El sauce de su casa

Is crying
está llorando

Because they rob you Eulogia
Porque te roban Eulogia

in the Carnival
Carnavaleando

Because they rob you Eulogia
Porque te roban Eulogia

In the Carnival
Carnavaleando

The face is floured
La cara se le enharina

The shadow sands
La sombra se le enarena

Singing and disenchanting
Cantando y desencantando

The sorrows are tangled
Se le entreveran las penas

Singing and disenchanting
Cantando y desencantando

The sorrows are intertwined
Se le entreveran las penas
EulogiaComes on a white horse
Viene en un caballo blanco

The "CAJA" in his hands trembles
La caja en sus manos tiembla

And when the night sinks
Y cuando se hunde la noche

Eulogia is a brown dahlia
Es una dalia morena

And when the night sinks
Y cuando se hunde la noche

She is a brown dahlia
Es una dalia morena
The willow tree in your house
El sauce de tu casa

Is crying to you
Te está llorando

Because they rob you Eulogia
Porque te roban Eulogia

to the Carnival
Carnavaleando

Because they rob you Eulogia
Porque te roban Eulogia

To the Carnival
Carnavaleando
