Текст и перевод песни Chavela Vargas - Los Dos Hermanos

Los Dos Hermanos

Este es el nuevo corrido
Que yo les vengo a cantar
De dos hermanos muy buenos
Que tuvieron que pelear
Juan Luis, uno se llamaba
El otro José Manuel
Y empezaron las discordias
Por una mala mujer
Llegó Juan Luis a una fiesta
Con la mujer que el quería
Esto presente lo tengo
El año treinta corría
En eso llegó su hermano
Con su guitarra en la mano
Empezó cantando versos
Como retando a su hermano
Mira Juan Luis, que te digo
Esa mujer ya fue mía
No tengo la culpa, hermano
Eso yo no lo sabía
A su muy buena pistola
Jose Manuel echó mano
De dos balazos mató
A la mujer de su hermano
José Manuel, lo que has hecho
Hoy mismo te va a pesar
Mataste lo que quería
Con tu vida haz de pagar
Se salieron para afuera
Y se oyeron dos disparos
En el quicio de una puerta
Dos hermanos quedaron

The Two Brothers

This is the new corrido
That I sing for you
Of two very good brothers
Who had to fight
Juan Luis, one was called
The other José Manuel
And the discord began
Over a bad woman
Juan Luis arrived at a party
With the woman he wanted
This I know for sure
In the year thirty it happened
In that moment his brother arrived
With his guitar in his hand
He began singing verses
As if challenging his brother
Look Juan Luis, I'll tell you
That woman was already mine
It's not my fault, brother
I didn't know that
To his very good pistol
Jose Manuel reached
With two shots he killed
His brother's woman
José Manuel, what you've done
Today you'll have to pay for it
You killed what I loved
You'll pay with your life
They went outside
And two shots were heard
On the threshold of a door
Two brothers fell
