Текст и перевод песни El Respeto Del Norte - Carrera a Muerte

Carrera a Muerte

En la raya dos caballos
En la meta dos pistolas
En el pueblo no habia feria, en el llano no habia bola
Era una carrera a muerte, era una carrera a solas.

Juan Pedro dice a Jacinto
Vamos a hecharnos un trago, porque si te falla el pinto en esta noche te acabo
Y yo se bien que ni el vientooo le gana a mi colorado

Entonces dice Jacinto, mientras que Pedro bebia
Que Dios te lleve a su reino, y perdone tu osadia
Voy a ganar la carrera
Y esa mujer va a ser mia.
Y estando la luna llena
Brindaron por la Maria, era la hembra bonita que los dos hombres querian
Y estando la luna llena los dos a un tiempo contaron
Y donde hicieron el brindis la polvadera dejaron

Pasadito el medio llano, los caballos se frenaban
Como si ya presintieran que la muerte se acercaba
Y al llegar a la meta
Esa carrera empataban
Y estando la luna llena descolgaron sus pistolas
En el pueblo no habia feria, en el llano no habia bola
Estando la luna llena cinco balazos sonaron
Tres acabaron con pedro dos a jacinto mataron.
Dos amigos, dos caballos dos pistolas y un amooor
Los amigos ya murieron las pistolas se perdieron los caballos sepa Dios
Dos amigos, dos caballos dos pistolas y un amooor
Los amigos ya murieron las pistolas se perdieron, la maria se encuentra en flor

Race to Death

Two horses on the line
Two pistols at the finish line
There was no fair in town, no ball in the plains
It was a race to death, a race alone.

Juan Pedro tells Jacinto
Let's have a drink, because if your horse fails tonight, I'll kill you
And I know that not even the wind can beat my brown horse

Then Jacinto says, while Pedro was drinking
May God take you to his kingdom and forgive your audacity
I'm going to win the race
And that woman is going to be mine.
And with the full moon shining
They toasted to Maria, the beautiful woman that both men wanted
And with the full moon shining, they counted down at the same time
And where they toasted, they left a cloud of dust

Halfway across the plains, the horses slowed down
As if they already sensed that death was approaching
And when they reached the finish line
They tied in that race
And with the full moon shining, they took down their pistols
There was no fair in town, no ball in the plains
With the full moon shining, five bullets rang out
Three killed Pedro, two killed Jacinto.
Two friends, two horses, two pistols, and one love
The friends are dead, the pistols are lost, the horses God knows where
Two friends, two horses, two pistols, and one love
The friends are dead, the pistols are lost, Maria is in bloom
