Che Apurahei Guaranime

This is the debut of my first song written in Guarani (with a little spanish). It was played at Peace Corps fundraiser in Asuncion. (unfortunately the video starts a little bit into the song)

The lyrics...roughly translated:

How´d you wake up?...woke up great because I got to sleep in late

Later on I´ll be workin on the farm

Drinking terere with my crew, and chattin it up

Chorus;

This is what life is like

Terere, in the shade, speaking guarani

I´m living care free/chilled out

Yo what up, how is going? Fantastic

Because I´m about to eat a kick ass bbq with my family

Later we´ll head to the soccer game, drink some beer and eat Chipa (a paraguayan bread)

Right on brother!

Chorus

I´m waiting for a girl to come through my window (a paraguayan joke)

¨Come over here for a minute¨ some good luck (The ¨come here...¨ also being a popular saying)

Unbearable is the heat here

Later on well hit the party and get sloppy drunk, Dance with beautiful women

Yeah, I´m happy in Paraguay

Chorus
