Paroles et traduction Chayito Valdez - Siete Leguas

Siete Leguas

Siete leguas el caballo,
Que Villa más estimaba,
Cuando oía silbar los trenes,
Se paraba y relinchaba,
Siete leguas el caballo,
Que Villa más estimaba.
En la estación de Irapuato,
Cantában los horizontes,
Ahí combatió formal,
La brigada Bracamontes,
En la estación de Irapuato,
Cantában los horizontes.
Oye tú Francisco Villa,
Que dice tú corazón,
Ya no te acuerdas valiente,
Que atacáste paredón,
Ya no te acuerdas valiente,
Que tomáste a Torreón.
Como a las tres de la tarde,
Silbó la locomotora,
¡arriba, arriba muchachos!,
Pongan la metralladora,
Como a las tres de la tarde,
Silbó la locomotora.
Adiós torres de Chihuahua,
Adiós torres de cantera,
Ya vino Francisco Villa,
A quitárles lo pantera,
Ya vino Francisco Villa,
A devolver la frontera.

Seven Leagues

Seven leagues the horse,
That Villa most esteemed,
When he heard the train whistle,
He stopped and neighed,
Seven leagues the horse,
That Villa most esteemed.
At the Irapuato station,
The horizons were singing,
There he fought formally,
The Bracamontes brigade,
At the Irapuato station,
The horizons were singing.
Listen to me, Francisco Villa,
What does your heart say?
Do you not remember, brave one,
That you attacked Paredón,
Do you not remember, brave one,
That you took Torreón.
At around three in the afternoon,
The locomotive whistled,
All aboard, all aboard boys!,
Load the machine gun,
At around three in the afternoon,
The locomotive whistled.
Farewell towers of Chihuahua,
Farewell stone towers,
Francisco Villa has come,
To take away what is yours,
Francisco Villa has come,
To return the border.
