Ruca Lyrics

Vengo de la ciudad que no quiso vivir...
Tengo alma de invierno, soy un glaciar...
Se respira la rabia, el tedio, el ladrón...
Las calles desprecian, el ruido es dolor...
Y si pudiera vivir del sol, del cielo
Y si pudiera cargar y largar...

Arriba la nube, la tapa a ¡presión...!
Abajo el asfalto, el hoyo, el ¡hedor...!
Y cuando viaje al pulmón veré tu pobreza
Y cuando vea en tu mundo ¡querré...!

¡Ruca, mi ruca!
¡Ruca, tu ruca!
¡Ruca, nuestra ruca!
¡Ruca, mi ruca!

Recíbeme Mapu, recíbeme ¡Che...!
Te ofrezco mi alma, mi fuerza, mi ¡fe...!
Siento el orgullo indómito en ti, bravura
Me entrego a tu mundo a luchar al patrón...

Siento el orgullo indómito en ti, bravura
Me entrego a tu mundo a luchar al ¡patrón...!
Y al que invada...

¡Ruca, mi ruca!
¡Ruca, tu ruca!
¡Ruca, nuestra ruca!
¡Ruca, mi ruca!

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Well, later I will going to post my impresions, but for all yours, now I will translate you some words, but only the words in the other language, mapudungun, you must need use a translate page or something for the spanish, or wait my vacations, XD

Ruca is the house of the mapuche people, you can translate ruca to house, but I don't know if that is the best... Mapu means floor, dirt, something like that, obviusly that have a more nationalist, I don't know if that word is fine in that case, significate, but I can't explain in english... Che means people. Mapuche means something like people of the earth, mmm, people of that land... eh, that is the term for mapu (see before that), XD

Well, that is... that is... that is all, friends (mascala Porky, :P)
