Текст и перевод песни Julión Álvarez y su Norteño Banda - Perro De Cadena

Perro De Cadena

Esta un retén federal, Tino le dijo a su gente
Yo no permito que nadie, venga a proponerme un trueque
Porque el picante que ofrecen, yo lo hago en mi molcajete

Ese retén es camuco, porque quieren darme piso
Me lo dijo un pajarito, traiba un recado en el pico
Lo que quieren es la plaza, quieren acabar conmigo

La sangre ya me esta ahogando y me cosquillean las manos
Defenderemos la plaza, que tanto nos ha costado
Vamos a calar los cuernos, que antenoche comerciamos

Ay que bonitos balazos, que silbaban en la sierra
Los compañeros de Tino, corrieron como gacelas
Dándole a Tino en el blanco, muerto quedo en la vereda

Vale mas morir peleando, y no vivir humillado
Tino nos dejo el ejemplo, al defender su poblado
Si supiera que su gente, toda se le ha malogrado

Quedo con su cuerno a un lado, abrazándolo con fuerza
Todos lo vieron peleando, como perro de cadena
No como otros que corrieron y hoy viven en la vergüenza

Dog on a Chain

There is a federal checkpoint, Tino told his people
I don't allow anyone, to come to me with a bribe
Because the spice they offer, I make myself in my molcajete

That checkpoint is dodgy, because they want to bring me down
A little bird told me, it brought a message in its beak
What they want is the square, they want to do away with me

The blood is already choking me and my hands are tingling
We will defend the square, which has cost us so much
Let's put our horns to the test, that we traded the other night

Oh how beautiful the bullets, that whistled in the mountains
Tino's companions, ran like gazelles
Hitting Tino in the heart, he was left dead on the path

It's better to die fighting, than to live humiliated
Tino left us an example, by defending his town
If only he knew that his people, have all gone astray

He was left with his horn to one side, holding it tightly
Everyone saw him fighting, like a dog on a chain
Not like the others who ran away and now live in shame
