Llanero Lullaby Lyrics. An original lullaby inspired by Venezuela’s Llanos, vast tropical grasslands home to the llanero cowboy tradition and its distinctive harp music. Joropo, the llanero’s signature musical style, is often considered Venezuela’s national genre, built around the arpa llanera harp alongside the cuatro guitar and maracas, and the llanero’s cattle-herding way of life on the open Llanos plains has much in common with the gaucho traditions found further south in Argentina and Uruguay. Here you will find the lyrics, meaning, and chords.
