Текст и перевод песни Joan Sebastian - Medios Hermanos

Medios Hermanos

José y Alejandro no crecieron juntos
Por esas cosas de humanos
La mera verdad parecian gemelos
Pero eran medios hermanos

Hoy voy a cantarles y asi he de contarles
Como empezo la discordia
Por una Isabel que los dos conocieron
Y los dos hicieron novia

Decia la muchacha, decia sin desfacha
Que ella a los dos amaba
Y que al principio creyo que eran uno,
Ay que equivocada estaba

Una tarde junto al rio
Sobre los lomos de un potro
José apasionado besaba a la "Chabe"
Y en eso que llega el otro

"Y Ave María Chabelita
Que problemon"

Muy grande coraje cargaba Alejandro
Tambien muy grande cuchillo
Un odio en el alma que le habia infundido
Su madre desde chiquillo

Sobre la pareja lanzo su caballo
Cayendo los tres al rio
El agua teñida con la misma sangre
Chabela sola y con frio

Oiganme madres celosas,
Que triste se oye esta historia
Dos medios hermanos que no se quisieron
Que Dios los tenga en su Gloria

Half Brothers

José and Alejandro didn't grow up together
It's just the way things are
They looked like twins, really
But they were half brothers

Today I will sing to you about how it all started
How the discord began
Over an Isabel whom they both met
And both made their girlfriend

The girl would say bluntly
That she loved them both
And that at first she thought they were one,
Oh, how wrong she was

One afternoon by the river
On the backs of their horse
José passionately kissed "Chabe"
And that's when the other one arrived

"Holy Mary, Chabelita
What a problem"

Alejandro had great courage
And a great big knife too
A hatred in his soul planted by
His mother since childhood

He charged towards the couple on his horse
And all three fell into the river
The water stained with the same blood
Chabela was alone and cold

Listen to me, jealous mothers,
How sad this story sounds
Two half brothers who didn't love each other
May God have them in his Glory
