Corralero El - Antonio Aguilar traduction en anglais

Corralero El

"Jamas hay que despreciar
Al que ha servido toda una vida
Por que el que lo hace es muy cruel
Y nunca podra adivinar
Como sera su partida"

Esta muy malo el corralero,
Y alla en el potrero,
Como viejo está
Hay que ayudarlo a que muera,
Para que no sufra mas
Siempre fuiste el mas certero
Y por eso debes su mal aliviar

Como pretende que yo,
Que lo crié desde potrillo,
Clave en su pecho un cuchillo,
Por que el patrón lo ordeno,
Dejenlo no mas pastar,
No rechacen mi consejo
Que yo lo voy a enterrar
Cuando se muera de viejo

Junto al estero del valle,
Lo encontré tendido,
Casi al expirar,
Me acerque muy lentamente,
Y se lo quise explicar,
Pero al verlo resignado,
Me tembló la mano,
Y me puse a llorar

Como pretende que yo,
Que lo crié desde potrillo,
Clave en su pecho un cuchillo,
Por que el patrón lo ordeno,
Dejenlo no mas pastar,
No rechacen mi consejo
Que yo lo voy a enterrar
Cuando se muera de viejo

Esta muy malo el corralero,
Y alla en el potrero,
Como viejo está

The Corralero

"You should never look down on
Those who have given everything,
For those who do are cruel
And can't imagine how
They will depart this world"

The corralero is very ill,
And there on the pasture,
How old he is
We must help him to die,
So that he no longer suffers
You have always been the best,
And that is why you must end his suffering

How do you expect me,
Who raised him from a colt
To strike his chest with a knife,
Just because the boss ordered it?
Let him continue to pasture,
Don't turn down my advice
For I will bury him
When he dies of old age

Next to the streambed in the valley,
I found him lying down
Near death's door,
I approached very slowly,
And I tried to explain,
But seeing him resigned,
My hand shook,
And I began to cry

How do you expect me,
Who raised him from a colt
To strike his chest with a knife,
Just because the boss ordered it?
Let him continue to pasture,
Don't turn down my advice
For I will bury him
When he dies of old age

The corralero is very ill,
And there on the pasture,
How old he is
