El Preso Numero Nueve (Prisoner Number Nine)

El Preso Numero Nueve
Joan Baez

Al preso numero nueve, ya lo van a confesar
Está rezando en la celda con el cura del penal
Porque ante este amanecer, la vida le han de quitar
Porque mató a su mujer y un amigo desleal
Dice, así, al confesar "los maté, si señor
Y si yo vuelvo a nacer, yo los vuelvo a matar

Padre no me arrepiento, ni me da miedo la eternidad
Yo sé que allá en el cielo el ser supremo nos juzgará
Voy a seguir sus pasos, voy a buscarlos al mas allá."
Ay. yayayayayyyyy

El preso numero nueve era un hombre muy cabal
Iba el noche del duelo, muy contento a su jacal
Pero al mirar a su amor, en brazos de su rival,
Ardió en su pecho el rencor y no se pudo aguantar.
Al sonar el clarín, se formó el pelotón
Y rumbo al paredón, se oye al preso decir:

Padre no me arrepiento, ni me da miedo la eternidad
Yo sé que allá en el cielo el ser supremo nos juzgará
Voy a seguir sus pasos, voy a buscarllos al mas allá.
Ay. yayayayayyyyy yaay

Prisoner Number Nine

Prisoner Number Nine
Joan Baez

To the prisoner number nine, they will now confess
He is praying in the cell with the chaplain of the penal
Because before this dawn, their life will be taken
Because they killed their wife and a disloyal friend
They say, thus, while confessing "I killed them, yes, sir
And if I were born again, I would kill them again

Father I do not regret it, nor am I afraid of eternity
I know that up in heaven, the supreme being will judge us
I will follow their steps, I will go look for them in the afterlife."
Oh. yayayayayyyyy

The prisoner number nine was a very honest man
He went the night of the duel, very happily to his hut
But when he looked at his love, in the arms of his rival,
Bitterness burned in his chest and he could not hold back.
When the bugle sounded, the platoon was formed
And heading to the wall, you can hear the prisoner say:

Father I do not regret it, nor am I afraid of eternity
I know that up in heaven, the supreme being will judge us
I will follow their steps, I will go look for them in the afterlife.
Oh. yayayayayyyyy yaay
