Paroles et traduction Antonio Aguilar - La Culebra Pollera

La Culebra Pollera

La Culebra Pollera.

Andándome yo paseando,
Me encontré yo una muchacha,
Me dijo donta el cuchillo,
Le enseñé la pura cacha,
Si quiere lo afilaremos,
Pa' darle vuelo a la ilacha,

Ayer te estuve esperando,
Y me dejaste plantado,
Dime si ya no me quieres,
O que es lo que te ha pasado,
Buena jugada me hicíste,
Procura andar con cuidado,

Música.

En la barranca te espero,
Abajo de los Huizaches,
Como que te hago una seña,
Como que chiflo y te sales,
Como que vas a la leña,
Si no éres tonta ya sabes,

En el filo de una daga,
Se anda paseando la muerte,
Anda dile a tu marido,
Que a la noche vengo a verte,
A ver si sale un maldito,
Que quiera rifar su suerte,

Música,

Suspiro que desde adentro,
Te sales a divertir,
Si no has de lograr tu intento,
Deja mi vida vivir,
Suspiro metete adentro,
No andes dando que decir,

Ya con esta me despido,
Al pie de la nopalera,
Me voy cantado el corrido,
De la culebra pollera,
Haber si tu consentido,
Se hace mas a mi manera...

The Hen Snake

The Hen Snake.

As I was walking,
I found a young woman,
She said, "Lend me your knife",
I showed her the handle,
If you want, we'll sharpen it,
To give the ilacha flight,

I waited for you yesterday,
And you left me stranded,
Tell me if you don't love me anymore,
Or what has happened to you,
You played me well,
Be careful,

Music.

I'll wait for you in the canyon,
Under the Huizaches,
I'll give you a sign,
I'll whistle and you come out,
Like you're going for firewood,
If you're not stupid, you know,

On the edge of a dagger,
Death stalks,
Tell your husband,
I'm coming to see you tonight,
To see if a bastard comes out,
Who wants to risk his luck,

Music,

Sigh that comes from within,
You come out to have fun,
If you're not going to succeed,
Let me live my life,
Sigh, go inside,
Don't go spreading gossip,

Now I say goodbye,
At the foot of the nopalera,
I'm going to sing the corrido,
Of the hen snake,
Let's see if your sweetheart,
Becomes more like me...
