    La luna is a collection of new and classic lullabies in Spanish. La luna es una colección de canciones de cuna con ritmos andinos. Listeners will hear genres including loncomeo from Patagonia, candombe from Uruguay, huayno from the Andes and merengue from Venezuela. The songs come to life with the exquisitely performed instrumentation – soft strings of charangos, guitars, cellos and a Cuban tres; the deep boom of an ancient traditional drum (bombo leyero); and soothing and whimsical quenas and sikus (flutes and pan pipes).

lyrics

Words and music by Edson Velandia • Letra y música por Edson Velandia

La montaña por donde cae el sol,
Camino que lleva al río
La leña que llama al fuego,
Canción que espanta la tempestad

Las aves que anuncian la noche,
El viento que viene frío
La piedra donde se sienta Dios,
La calma del caracol

Duerme niña, que yo te nombro el paisaje
Duerme niña, que yo te nombro el paisaje

La cueva donde nació el ratón,
Camino que lleva al monte
El agua de los remedios,
Canción que arrulla la soledad

La nube que mira la luna,
Rumores de los cantores
Las tres estrellas de siempre,
El árbol matarratón

Duerme niña, que tiene sueño el cantante
Duerme niña, que tiene sueño el cantante

TRANSLATION:
The Mountain

The mountain the sun sets on
The path that leads to the river
The kindling that coaxes the fire
The song that chases away the storm

The birds that herald nighttime
The wind that arrives cold
The rock that God sits on
The calm of the seashell

Sleep, child. I will describe the landscape for you.

The cave the mouse was born in
The path that leads to the mountain
The water for healing remedies
The song that lulls loneliness

The cloud that gazes at the moon
The gentle sound of singers’ voices
The three stars that are always there
The Gliricidia tree

Sleep, child. The singer is getting sleepy.
