Paroles et traduction Conjunto Rio Grande - El Ciego

El Ciego

De la sierra de Durango
Con Zacatecas pegado
Nació un bonito ejemplar
De sangre azteca el carajo
Nomas que nació sin ojos
Destino tan desgraciado

Pero un joven de quince años
Se encargaba de cuidarlo
Y le dijo a su papá
Que le regalara el cuaco
Y se lo llevo a un corral
A las orillas del rancho

Pedro lo enseño a correr
En carreras parejeras
Corría derecho el caballo
Difícil que me lo crean
Nunca se le tropezaba
Aunque el animal no viera

Y vámonos hasta Jerez primo Jose Martin Garcia

Pedro visito a Don Chon
Pa' amarrar una carrera
El señor tenia dinero
Propiedades dondequiera
Todo gracias a sus cuacos
Famosos por esas tierras

Aquel señor se burlaba
En su mente no cabía
Como había de ser posible
Lo que el muchacho queria
Jugar contra su caballo
Ya que el azteca no via

Señor tiene buen humor
Pedro Garcia le decía
Le apuesto las diez hectáreas
Que me dio mi abuelo un día
En cuanto las valoriza
Pongamos la fecha diga

Te dare treinta millones
Si ganas aunque no creo
Esta bien señor lo acepto
Pero llevare a mi perro
Es muy amigo del penco

A la orilla de la meta
Estaba ladrando el perro
Cuando se abrieron las puertas
Se rebelaba el secreto
El ciego llego primero
A donde ladraba el perro

Cuando un sentido te falla
Desarrollas otro bueno
El lo tenia en las pezuñas
Por eso salió ligero
Pedrito con troka nueva
Anda construyendo un lienzo

The Blind Man

From the mountains of Durango
Adjacent to Zacatecas
A beautiful specimen was born
Of Aztec blood, the guy
But he was born without sight
Such an unfortunate fate

But a young man of fifteen
Was in charge of taking care of him
And he said to his father
That he should give him the horse
And he took it to a corral
On the outskirts of the ranch

Pedro taught him to run
In head-to-head races
The horse ran straight
Hard to believe, I know
He never stumbled
Even though the animal couldn't see

And let's go to Jerez, cousin Jose Martin Garcia

Pedro visited Don Chon
To set up a race
The man had money
Properties everywhere
All thanks to his horses
Famous in those lands

That gentleman made fun of him
He couldn't wrap his head around
How it could be possible
What the boy wanted
To race against his horse
Since the Aztec couldn't see

Sir, you're in a good mood
Pedro Garcia said to him
I'll bet you the ten hectares
That my grandfather gave me one day
As soon as you value them
Let's set a date, say it

I'll give you thirty million
If you win, although I don't think so
Alright sir, I accept
But I'll bring my dog
He's a good friend of the horse

At the edge of the finish line
The dog was barking
When the gates opened
The secret was revealed
The blind man arrived first
To where the dog was barking

When one sense fails you
You develop another good one
He had it in his hooves
That's why he went fast
Little Pedro with a new truck
Is building a canvas
