Paroles et traduction Lupe Tijerina - Lamberto quintero

Lamberto quintero

Un día 28 de Enero, como me hiere esa fecha
A Don Lamberto Quintero lo seguia una camioneta
Iban con rumbo al Salado no′mas a dar una vuelta.

Pasaron el Carrizal, iban tomando cerveza
Un compañero le dijo: nos sigue una camioneta
Lamberto sonriendo dijo: pa' que son las metralletas

Ya cerquita del Salado rugieron dos R-15
Ahí dejaron un muerto enemigo de Lamberto
Quisiera que fuera cuento pero señores es cierto.

Un hombre fuera de serie, alegre y enamorado
Platicando con su novia, el estaba descuidado
Cuando unas armas certeras la vida le arrebataron.

Clinica Santa María tu vas a ser mi testigo
Dos dias despues de esa muerte vuelven a sonar los tiros
Ahí murieron 10 hombres por esos mismos motivos.

Puente que va a Tierra Blanca tu que los viste pasar
Recuerdales que a Lamberto nunca se podra olvidar
Yo por mi parte aseguro que hace falta en Culiacán.

Lamberto Quintero

On January 28, a date that makes me ache
Don Lamberto Quintero was shadowed by a pickup truck
They were heading to Salado just for a quick drive.

They passed Carrizal, drinking beer
A mate said: "We're being trailed by a pickup truck"
Lamberto smiled and said: "That's what these machine guns are for"

Just before reaching Salado, two R-15s roared
They left an enemy of Lamberto dead right there
I wish it were a tale, but dear friends, it's true.

An extraordinary man, always cheerful and in love
Chatting with his sweetheart, he let his guard down
When deadly firearms took his life away.

Santa María Clinic, you were witness
Two days after his death came more gunshots
Ten men died for the same reasons.

Bridge to Tierra Blanca, you saw them pass
Remind them that Lamberto will never be forgotten
For my part, I swear that his presence is missed in Culiacán.
