Lyrics and translation La Fiera de Ojinaga - El Rezado
Una
vez
de
madrugada
One
time
at
dawn
Venia
del
barrio
& en
una
casa
I
came
from
the
neighborhood
& in
a
house
Escuche
algo
raro
I
heard
something
strange
Y
enseguida
con
cuidado
And
then
with
care
Me
fui
acercando
I
walked
closer
Por
la
rendija
seguia
mirando
Through
the
crack
I
kept
looking
Eran
un
par
de
comadres
There
were
a
couple
of
comadres
Que
habian
prendido
unas
cuantro
velas
Who
had
lit
some
four
candles
& Un
retrato
estaban
velando
& A
portrait
they
were
keeping
vigil
over
Con
la
cabeza
pa
bajo
With
its
head
facing
down
Con
alfileres
lo
habian
clavado
With
pins
they
had
nailed
it
Y
las
comadres
seguian
resando
And
the
comadres
kept
praying
Y
una
le
preguntaba
And
one
would
ask
& La
otra
le
contestaba
si
& The
other
would
answer
yes
Y
una
le
preguntaba
And
one
would
ask
& La
otra
le
contestaba
si
& The
other
would
answer
yes
Animas
almas
benditas
& fulanitas
Holy
souls
& my
so-and-so
Cuanto
me
quieren
no
tengo
Much
as
I
love
him,
I
don't
have
Aliento
contra
mujeres
Any
breath
against
women
Que
esta
muy
lejos
& de
una
vez
Who
is
far
away
& at
once
Arrepentido
venga
a
mis
pies
Repent
and
come
to
my
feet
Que
trabajando
consiga
plata
That
working
hard
he
may
earn
money
& Que
la
traiga
para
la
casa
& That
he
may
bring
it
home
Siga
qe
siga
pero
ay
amiga
ruega
por
el
Go
on
& go
on
but
dear
friend
pray
for
him
& Nada
le
digas
amenn!!!
& Don't
tell
him
anything
amenn!!!
(Y
zapateale
Comprade.
Pura
fiera
de
Ojinaaaga
mi
primo)
(And

my
friend.
Pure
beast
of
