Dos Amigos - Los Jairas Übersetzung ins Englische

Dos Amigos

Estos eran, dos amigos
que venian de Mapimi
que por no venirse de oquis
robaron Guanacevi

Ellos traiban, dos caballos
un oscuro y un jovero
en el oscuro cargan ropa
y en el jovero el dinero

Tambien traiban, maquinaria
y muy buenas baterias
para desclavar los rieles
y hacer los cambios de via

Martin le dice a Jose
no te pongas amarillo
vamos a robar el tren
que viene de Vermejillo

Amarillo no me pongo
amarillo es mi color
he robado trenes grandes
y maquinas de vapor

Valgame el santo ninito
ya agarraron a Jose
en la esquina del mercado
lo ataron y se les fue

Seria por sus oraciones
que su madre le rezaba
seria por su buena suerte
que a Jose no le tocaba

Two Friends

There were, two friends, my love,
coming from Mapimi,
so they wouldn't come back empty-handed,
they robbed Guanacevi.

They had, two horses, darling,
a dark one and a buckskin,
on the dark one they carried clothes,
and on the buckskin the money.

They also had, equipment, sweetheart,
and very good batteries,
to pull out the rails,
and make the track changes.

Martin says to Jose, my dear,
don't turn yellow,
we're going to rob the train,
that comes from Vermejillo.

I won't turn yellow, honey,
yellow is my color,
I've robbed big trains,
and steam engines.

Bless the holy child, my love,
they've caught Jose,
on the corner of the market,
they tied him up and he got away.

It must have been because of the prayers, sweetheart,
that his mother prayed for him,
it must have been his good luck,
that Jose wasn't meant to be caught.
