about

AYA Records presents Humazapas’ ‘Chichu Burru’.

‘Chichu Burru’ is the first single from their upcoming album 'Sara Mama'.

‘Chichu Burru’ is a musical composition in the Kapishka and Yumbo genre, dedicated to the Kichwa Cotacachi communities in the northern Andes of Ecuador.

In the Kichwa communities, the development of life depends on the world of humans, nature and deities, which is why when any activity is to be carried out within those territories, permission is requested from these worlds. ‘Chichu Burru’ is a ritual song to wake them up and talk to them. The lyrics of the song describe the transformation of the mountains and lagoons into birds of different colors, who dance and sing.

This theme was composed by Jesús Bonilla, the lyrics by mama Anita Farinango, and the music video for ‘Chichu Burru’ was directed by the Peruvian director Víctor Manuel Checa. This video shows the Kichwa marriage ritual "Ñawi Maillay" (facelift), where 4 children from the community escape to travel through the mountains of the Ecuadorian Andes until they reach the sacred lagoon of Kuykocha where they can play on the water with their little boats.

lyrics

Kichwa > English (Español Abajo)

Jagua lumapicha pishku jamzika ninanda tigrarinjun
In the mountains a little bird is dancing

Chaynitaka sukuyan, yashataka pukayan, ayayay
Chaynitaka sukuyan, yashataka pukayan, ayayay
On the horizon it grows dark, behind is the aurora, ayayay
Imbabura puntapi pukapishku shayajun ayayay
Imbabura puntapi pukapishku shayajun ayayay
On the peak of the Imbabura volcano a red bird perches, ayayay

Takita taki, takita taki, takita taki, takita taki
Takita taki, takita taki, takita taki, takita taki taaa
Sing the song, sing the song, sing the song, sing the song.

Mojandita urkupi yura pishku faguajun ayayay
Mojandita urkupi yura pishku faguajun ayayay
On Mount Mojanda a white bird is jumping, ayayay
Warmi rasu urkupi verde pishku silvajun ayayay
Warmi rasu urkupi verde pishku silvajun ayayay
On Mount Cotacachi a green bird is singing, ayayay

Takita taki, takita taki, takita taki, takita taki
Takita taki, takita taki, takita taki, takita taki taaa
Sing the song, sing the song, sing the song, sing the song.

Warmi rasitu, jauuu
Mama Cotacachi
Imbaburita, kaipi mary
Imbaburita is here
Yana luma, rrishka
Loma Negra has gone
Mojandita, Payka chayta
Mojandita, she is there
Kuikocha, Imbakucha
Lake Cuichocha, Lake San Pablo
Yaguarkuchapash
Lake of blood
Rrikcharichi, Shuk faltarami, shuk, shuk
Awaken, there’s one, one, one to go

Paykuna rrikcharishpaka
If they wake up
Ñukanchita manllachimungami
They will scare us
Pishkukunapash ashta kishijushpa tushunga
And the birds will dance happily

Yana loma urkupi, yana pishku fawajun ayayay
Yana loma urkupi, yana pishku fawajun ayayay
On Mount Loma Negra a black bird flies, ayayay
Aluburu lomapi, chichu burru shayajun ayayay
Aluburu lomapi, chichu burru shayajun ayayay
On Loma de Aluburu is the Chichu Burru spirit, ayayay

Takita taki, takita taki, takita taki, takita taki
Takita taki, takita taki, takita taki, takita taki taaa
Sing the song, sing the song, sing the song, sing the song.

Jagua lumapicha pishku jamzika ninanda tigrarinjun
Por las montañas un pequeño pájaro está bailando

Chaynitaka sukuyan, yashataka pukayan, ayayay

Por el horizonte se oscurece, por atrás la aurora, ayayay
Imbabura puntapi pukapishku shayajun ayayay
Imbabura puntapi pukapishku shayajun ayayay
En la cima del volcán Imbabura se posa un pájaro rojo, ayayay

Takita taki, takita taki, takita taki, takita taki
Takita taki, takita taki, takita taki, takita taki taaa
Canta la canción, canta la canción, canta la canción, canta la canción

Mojandita urkupi yura pishku faguajun ayayay
Mojandita urkupi yura pishku faguajun ayayay
En el cerro de Mojanda está saltando una pájara blanca, ayayay
Warmi rasu urkupi verde pishku silvajun ayayay

Laguna de sangre
Rrikcharichi, Shuk faltarami, shuk, shuk
Despierten, falta una, una, una

Paykuna rrikcharishpaka
Si ellos despiertan
Ñukanchita manllachimungami
Nos asustarán
Pishkukunapash ashta kishijushpa tushunga
Y los pájaros bailaran felices

Yana loma urkupi, yana pishku fawajun ayayay
Yana loma urkupi, yana pishku fawajun ayayay
En el Cerro Loma Negra vuela un pájaro negro, ayayay
Aluburu lomapi, chichu burru shayajun ayayay
Aluburu lomapi, chichu burru shayajun ayayay
En la Loma de Aluburu, se encuentra el espíritu Chichu Burru, ayayay

Takita taki, takita taki, takita taki, takita taki
Takita taki, takita taki, takita taki, takita taki taaa
Canta la canción, canta la canción, canta la canción, canta la canción
