And up there he slept.

I am not going to do anything to you (Lit. I am going to do you nothing.)

But after that, when you go out, you go out there in the pampa, you arrive home,

If you don't do that, you are going to get lost again and this time, I will not take you out of it.

That's why they named the dancers "Japutuqui", they said.
