Текст и перевод песни Ezequiel Peña - Valente Quintero

Valente Quintero

Aquí me siento a cantar
Con cariño verdadero,
Versos que le compusieron,
A Don Valente Quintero,
Llegó Valente a ese baile,
Y mandó a tocar el "Toro"
Si el mayor paga con plata,
Yo se los pago con oro,
Los músicos contestaron
"No la sabemos tocar"
Valente tu andas borracho,
Y vas a querer pelear,
! Y hay no mas ¡
Valente les contesto,
Yo no quiero averiguar,
Si no me tocan "El Toro",
Tóquenme "Eraquio Bernal",
El mayor les contestó bastante muy disgustado,
Valente tú no eres hombre,
Eres un ocasionado,
Valente le contestó,
Yo no soy ocasionado,
Con esta "45" no respeto ningún grado,
! Y arriba san josé de valle que también es pueblo oiga ¡
Se salieron pa' la calle,
Se apartaron de la bola,
Y a los poquitos momentos se oyen tiros de pistola,
Vuela vuela Palomita y si no vuelas detente,
Estas son la mañanitas del Mayor y de Valente

Valente Quintero

Here I sit so I may sing
With true love,
Verses I have composed,
For Don Valente Quintero,
Valente arrived at this dance party,
And ordered them to play "Toro"
If the mayor pays with silver,
I'll pay you with gold,
The musicians answered
"We don't know how to play that song"
Valente you're drunk,
And you're looking to fight,
! And that's it!
Valente answered them,
I don't want to argue,
If you don't play "El Toro",
Play "Eraquio Bernal",
The major replied quite displeased,
Valente you're not a man,
You're a troublemaker,
Valente answered him,
I'm not a troublemaker,
With this "45" I respect no rank,
! And up in San José de Valle, which is also a town, hear that!
They went out into the street,
They walked away from the party,
And a few moments later you hear gunshots,
Fly Fly Little Dove and if you don't fly, then stay,
These are the last moments of the Major and of Valente
