Translation:
Mountain of Yucuninu, my appreciation is for you you feed so many animals, and when you burn you remain without forests, what sadness, what sadness
From you the trees grow, and also the drunk flower, the orchid, the cactus, the mushrooms and everything that is essential
Pine tree, so twisted & cracked you are the motherlode of luxuries
Your guardians watch over you, but don't pay attention, until they see you fall, when they see the voracious flames, then they remember you
You are what coffins are made from, and seats, and beds and everything
You are of vital importance, From you.. fire wood, building materials and the cross on top of the mountain.
You are used for everyhting that is why people take care of you you are the one who gives us beauty beautiful, beautiful Yucuninu!
Your beauty is bewitching when we see you from afar dressed in black and charred you will remain.
Traduccion:
Cerro de Yucuninu, mi aprecio es para ti tu alimentas a tantos animales, y cuando sufres incendios te quedes sin bosque que triste! que triste!
De ti crecen los arboles crece la flor de borrachitos la orquidea, el nopal, los hongos todo lo necessario
Arbol del Ocote! crucillo! engretado! madrono de lujos!
Un guardian te cuida y no te hacen caso hasta que te ven caer y ven bramas de tempestades entonces se acuerdan de ti
De ti convierten el ataud te ocupan como asiento te ocupan como cama te ocupan para todo
Eres de vital importancia de ti la lena, de ti el ocote de ti el cabon, arbol! tue eres la cruz del clavario
En todo eres ocupado por eso la gente te cuida tu eres quien nos da la belleza lindo! lindo! yucuninu
Cuando te vemos lejos, Tu belleza es encantadora de negro te vistes y negro te sequiras viendo
