Lyrics and translation Larry Hernandez - El 9

El 9

Lo conoci muy sereno
Llegaba en una blindada
Nos jalamos pa′ una fiesta
Los canelos ahi tocaban
Los alegres del barranco
Y el grupo cartel ahi staba
Fiel al señor manuel torres
Y es el famoso 9
Lo acompaña el chapo cuadros
Y confiansa son del jefe
Ese meli es mi amigo
No se enrreden les conbiene
Les va el filo del cuchillo
O tambn con R-15s
Aqui hay agua pa' que tomen
Dice el 9 y lo repite
Recordando las asañas
Y el meli aqui sigue firme
Le emos sufrido de todo
Y le emos ganado al tiempo
El tiempo no se remienda
Por eso vivo contento
Mas cuando ando en el comando
Con la muerte sorprendiendo
Ya pase caseta 4
Ya venimos por la libre
Aqui andamos vijilando
Y es para que no se arrimen
Al que sale de la brecha
Lo endereso con mi rifle
Se puso la cosa fea
Despues del enfrentamiento
Me la jugue con los guachos
Y de eso no me arrepiento
No hay mal que dure 100 años
Ni ensierro que sea eterno

9

I met him very calm
He arrived in an armored car
We're going to a party
Los canelos were already playing there
Los alegres del barranco
And the group cartel was there
Loyal to Señor Manuel Torres
And he's the famous 9
He's accompanied by Chapo Cuadros
And they both trust the boss
That Meli is my friend
Don't get me wrong, it's good for you
The sharp edge of the knife will get you
Or they can also get you with an R-15
Here's some water for you to drink
Says the 9 and repeats it
Remembering the great deeds
And Meli is still here, strong
We have suffered through everything
And we've won against time
Time cannot be fixed
That's why I live happy
Even more when I'm in command
Surprising death
I've already passed caseta 4
Now we're coming through the toll road
Here we are, guarding
So that they don't come near
Whoever leaves the gap
I'll set them straight with my rifle
Things got ugly
After the confrontation
I gambled with the guards
And I don't regret it
Nothing lasts forever, not even hardships
Nor imprisonment
