Paroles et traduction Los Relampaguitos - El Coyote

El Coyote

Le pinte un cuatro al coyote
Y me fui para la sierra

El coyote era un bandido
Nacido allá por mi tierra
Lo conocí desde niño
Fuimos juntos a la escuela

A las primeras lecciones
Se sabía lo que intentaba
Porque cantaba canciones
Peleando con su guitarra
Y aunque perdiera ilusiones
Con sus ojos no lloraba

Aquella noche de mayo
Le gusto mi María Elena
Pero yo llegue a caballo
Ya tenia cita con ella

Cuando baje de la sierra
Me encare con el Coyote
Y abrazando a Maria Elena
Le dije ya tiene nombre
Porque en la ermita sagrada
Nos caso el cura del monte

El agacho la cabeza
Y se fue cobardemente
Pero como era coyote
Se devolvió de repente
El me buscaba la espalda
Pero yo le halle la frente

Coyote, coyote altivo
Que no respetaste amores
Pudiendo se buen amigo
Te mataron tus traiciones

The Coyote

I drew a heart on the coyote
And I left for the country

The coyote was a bandit
Born in my homeland
I've known him since childhood
We went to school together

In the first lessons
You could see what he was trying
Because he sang songs
Playing with his guitar
And though he lost illusions
He didn't cry with his eyes

That May night
He was interested in my Maria Elena
But I arrived on horseback
I already had an appointment with her

When I came down from the mountains
I confronted the Coyote
And embracing Maria Elena
I told him she already had a name
Because in the sacred chapel
The country priest married us

He hung his head
And left cowardly
But since he was a coyote
He suddenly turned around
He was looking for my back
But I found his forehead

Coyote, haughty coyote
Who didn't respect love
Being able to be a good friend
Your betrayals killed you
