Blue Bay Pulpero

Blue Bay “Pulpero”

Antonio Federico is a construction-worker and enthusiast of the guitar and local folkloric music.

As a tribute to his uncle and the “pulperos” who wrote the following lines:

 

Walking along the coast

You’re looking for

Your daily support

You may find your octopus…

Be it cold, be it hotTide after tide

You gather them together in the sea

Blue Bay “Pulpero”

The kook keeps on knocking

Again and again on the pai

lUntil it’s fullTired, you return to your ranch

Dear “pulpero” friend

When the sun rises at dawn

The stones shine with their beauty

You walk and walk

with your faithful

hook by your side

hopingTo find your “treasure”

under a rock

A few octopus to put food on your table.

 

Antonio Federico.
