Laurita Garza - Los Huracanes del Norte Übersetzung ins Englische

Laurita Garza

A orillas del Río Bravo, en una hacienda escondida
Laurita mato a su novio, porque ya no la quería
Y con otra iba a casarse, nomás por que las podía

Hallaron dos cuerpos muertos, al fondo de una parcela
Uno era el de Emilio Guerra, el prometido de Estela
El otro de Laura Garza, la maestra de la escuela

La última vez que se vieron, ella lo mando llamar
Cariño del alma mía, tú no te puedes casar
No decías que me amabas, que era cuestión de esperar

Tú no puedes hacerme esto, que pensara mi familia
No puedes abandonarme, después que te di mi vida
No digas que no me quieres, como antes si me querías

Solo vine a despedirme, Emilio le contesto
Tengo a mi novia pedida, por ti mi amor se acabo
Que te sirva de experiencia, lo que esta vez te paso

No sabía que estaba armada, y su muerte muy cerquita
De la bolsa de su abrigo, saco una escuadra cortita
Con ella le dio tres tiros, luego se mató Laurita

Laurita Garza

On the banks of the Rio Grande, on a hidden hacienda, my darling,
Laurita killed her boyfriend, because he no longer loved her, you see.
And he was going to marry another, just because he could, my sweet.

They found two dead bodies, at the bottom of a field, my love.
One was Emilio Guerra's, Estela's fiancé, you know.
The other was Laura Garza's, the school teacher, my dear.

The last time they saw each other, she sent for him, my darling,
Love of my soul, you can't get married, you see.
Didn't you say you loved me, that it was just a matter of waiting, my sweet.

You can't do this to me, what will my family think, my love?
You can't abandon me, after I gave you my life, my dear.
Don't say you don't love me, like you used to, my darling.

I only came to say goodbye, Emilio replied, you know.
I have my bride-to-be, my love for you is over, my sweet.
Let this be a lesson to you, what happened to you this time, my love.

He didn't know she was armed, and his death was very near, my dear.
From her coat pocket, she pulled out a small pistol, my darling.
With it she shot him three times, then Laurita killed herself, my love.
