Paroles et traduction Los Invasores de Nuevo León - Todos Eran Valientes

Todos Eran Valientes

Eran hermanos y fueron valientes,
Todos vivieron con resolución.
Que fueron cuatro, platica la gente
Y cayó sobre ellos una maldición.

Primero que a todos
Mataron a Antonio
Con rinches de Texas a tiros peleó.
Según la leyenda traía al demonio
Pero allá en el río su tumba quedó.

En un duelo a tiros mataron a Marcos
Y fue en un domingo al atardecer
Por tal de quedar y morir en sus brazos
Se agarró a balazos por una mujer.

A Juan lo cazaron un día en el campo
Venía en su caballo alegre y retozón
Ajeno a su suerte venía cantando
Sin ver que era blanco de infame traición.

Arturo, el más joven
Buscó la venganza
Pero a su destino no pudo escapar
Porque ya su suerte la tenía echada
Su vida marcada como los demás

La aureola que tienen crece con el tiempo
Y se hace leyenda y se hace canción
Los viejos del rancho saben que no es cuento
De aquellos valientes de gran corazón.

They Were All Brave

They were brothers, and they were brave,
All lived with resolute hearts.
They were four, as the people say,
And a curse fell upon them, tearing them apart.

First of all,
They killed Antonio,
He fought with Texan rangers, guns ablaze.
Legend says he carried the devil within,
But down by the river, his grave remains.

In a duel with guns, they killed Marcos,
And it was on a Sunday, as the sun descended.
To stay and die in her arms,
He took up his gun, for a woman he defended.

Juan was hunted down one day in the fields,
He rode his horse, joyful and free.
Unaware of his fate, he came singing,
Not seeing he was the target of vile treachery.

Arturo, the youngest,
Sought vengeance,
But from his destiny, he could not escape.
For his fate was already cast,
His life marked, just like the rest, by a cruel shape.

The halo they bear grows with time,
And becomes legend, becomes a song.
The old folks of the ranch know it's no tall tale,
Of those brave men with hearts so strong.
