Paroles et traduction Mariachi Cobre - La Rafaelita

La Rafaelita

En un pueblo de la sierra
De aquel lado de Sonora
Se mataron dos amigos
Por una malcornadora
Los dos eran trasteritos
Del real de Guanaceví
Y uno al otro le decía: "si para morir, nací"
Llegaron a una cantina
Tomando buenos licores
Y empezaron a cantar
Como buenos cantadores
Ramón le dijo a Cecilio: "cántame una cancioncita
Pero muy bien entonada a salud de Rafaelita"
Cecilio le contestó: "Eso si no me parece
Tocándome a Rafaelita el alma se me enardece"
Adentro de la cantina
Se echaron el desafío
Y se fueron a matar
Al otro lado río
Los dos traiban sus pistolas
Su parque y su carrillera
Pero quién iba a pensar
Que de esa pasión murieran
La de Cecilio era escuadra
La de Ramón 32
Pero las balas entraban
En el pecho de los dos
Cecilio cayó primero
Con la sangre a borbollones
Diciéndole a su rival: "así se acaban pasiones"
Ya con esta me despido
Paseándome por los pinos
Por una malcornadora
Murieron dos gallos finos

La Rafaelita

In a village in the sierra
On that side of Sonora
Two friends were killed
Over a troublemaker
Both were cowboys
From Guanaceví
And one said to the other: "If I'm born to die"
They went to a saloon
Drinking good liquors
And started to sing
Like good singers
Ramón said to Cecilio: "Sing me a little song
But very well sung to the health of Rafaelita"
Cecilio replied: "That's not something I like
When it comes to Rafaelita, my soul becomes inflamed"
Inside the saloon
They threw the challenge
And went out to kill
On the other side of the river
Both brought their pistols
Their ammunition and their bandoliers
But who would have thought
That they would die from that passion
Cecilio's was a square
Ramón's a .32
But the bullets entered
The chests of both
Cecilio fell first
With blood spurting
Saying to his rival: "That's how passions end"
Now with this, I say goodbye
Wandering through the pines
Over a troublemaker
Two fine roosters died
