Lyrics and translation Luis Coronel - El Coronel

El Coronel

Cuando me llego la noticia que mi padre fallecio,
Empeze a jalar el cuerno como el me lo encarg
Para recordar momentos que con el pasaba yo

Eran la seis de la manana cuando mi tio me dijo
Que mataron a mi padre, yo no le habia creido
Hasta que llego mi madre y dijo que no seguia vivo

Es muy feo perder un padre y feo dejar un hijo
Pero la vida es muy corta as como el siempre nos dijo,
Sus ultimas palabras fueron "cudate mucho mi nio"

Y esto es para usted jefito
Donde quiera que se encuentre
En mi mente siempre lo llevare,
Y puro nel

No hay manera de olvidarlo
Siempre estubo alli conmigo
En la buenas y en las malas desde que yo eran un chiquillo
No hay reclamos en la vida mas que matar al maldito.

A los dos les agradesco por saber como cuidarme,
No rajarmele a cualquiera es herencia de mi padre,
Sigue con la frente en alto son palabras de mi madre
El se encuentra ya en las nubes con el senor de los cielos
Guarda mucho los momentos y tambien bellos recuerdos,
Un saludo pa mi padre espero y pronto nos vemos

Colonel

When I heard the news that my father had passed away,
I started to play the horn like he asked me to
To remember the moments that I spent with him

It was six in the morning when my uncle told me
That my father had been killed, I didn't believe it
Until my mother came and said that he was no longer alive

It is very difficult to lose a father and ugly to leave a child
But life is very short as he always told us,
His last words were "take good care of yourself my child"

And this is for you, my dear
Wherever you are
I will always carry you in my mind,
And pure nel

There is no way to forget you
You were always there for me
In good times and bad times since I was a child
There are no complaints in life other than killing the evil one.

I thank you both for knowing how to take care of me,
Not giving up on anyone is my father's legacy,
Keep your head up, those are my mother's words
He's already in the clouds with the Lord of Heaven
Keep the moments and beautiful memories in your heart,
A greeting to my father, I hope to see you soon
