Paroles et traduction Carlos y José - Dados Cargados

Dados Cargados

A un lugar clandestino, a Horacio Aguirre invitaban
A una jugada de dados, que le tenían preparada
Al fin de tanto insistirle, la invitación acepto
Y a la voz del 7 al 11, la jugada comenzó

Horacio con mucha suerte, entro ganando en los dados
Pero en una parpadeada, le avientan dados cargados
Comenzó a cambiar su suerte, Horacio desesperado
Y empeño las escrituras, de su rancho "Los Arados"

Cuando Horacio perdió todo, los contrarios se miraron
Y en sus miradas decían, Horacio está terminado
Horacio así se decía, la suerte me ha abandonado
Por pura curiosidad, voy a revisar los dados

Lo que he perdido lo pago, les he jugado derecho
He revisado los dados, la traición tiene su precio
Saco su pistola Horacio, a sus contrarios mató
Querían verme la cara, y no se les concedió

Con el permiso señores, ya termine mi canción
Dicen que yo soy texano, soy de China, Nuevo León

Loaded Dice

They invited Horacio Aguirre to a clandestine place
To a dice game that they had prepared for him
After so much insistence, he accepted the invitation
And at the call of 7 to 11, the game began

Horacio, with great luck, started winning at dice
But in the blink of an eye, they rolled loaded dice on him
His luck began to change, Horacio grew desperate
And he pawned the deeds to his ranch, "Los Arados"

When Horacio lost everything, his opponents looked at each other
And in their eyes they said, Horacio is finished
Horacio said to himself, luck has abandoned me
Out of curiosity, I'm going to check the dice

I will pay what I have lost, I have played it straight
I have checked the dice, treachery has its price
Horacio drew his pistol and killed his opponents
They wanted to see me fall, but they were not allowed to

With your permission, ladies and gentlemen, I have finished my song
They say that I am a Texan, I am from China, Nuevo León
