Las Verdaderas Curanderas Songs

By Kike Pinto

Lyrics

Las verdaderas curanderas yo me supongo
hayan sido esas abuelas que trajeron medicina
(x2)

Luego escogieron las plantitas Mama Wilca, Ayahuasca Huachumita,
Chacrunita, Toé, Coca y Sairi (x2)

Chorus:
Porque, porque muy alegres,
Porque, porque no muy tristes
Walinemos en honor a nuestras abuelitas*
(x2)

Los verdaderos curanderos yo me supongo
hayan sido esos abuelos que trajeron ceremonia
(x2)

Luego escogieron las plantitas Mama Wilca, Ayahuasca Huachumita,
Chacrunita, Toé, Coca y Sairi (x2)

Chorus

La verdadera curandera yo estoy seguro
haya sido Pachamama que nos dio sus medicinas
(x2)

Luego nos brinda sus plantitas Mama Wilca, Ayahuasca, Huachumita,
Chacrunita, Toé, Coca y Sairi (x2)

Chorus

*this line is sung differently each time. 2nd time to "nuestros abueltios", third time to "nuestra
pachamama"

Translation

The true women healers, I suppose
Have been those grandmothers that brought medicine

Then they chose the plants: [plant list]

Because very happy
because not sad
[unknown] in honor of our grandmothers

The true healer men, I suppose
Have been those grandfathers that brought ceremony

The true healer, I am sure
has been our mother earth who gave us her medicines

Then she offered us the plants: [plant list]
