Las Tres Tumbas (Ranchera Version)

Salieron de madrugada
Se oía el canto de los gallos
Iban a ser dos jornadas,
A lomo de sus caballos
La fiesta se celebraba,
En el rancho del pitayo

Su padre les dio un consejo
Cuando apartir se aprestan
Cuiden muy bien el pellejo
Por que la vida se acaba
En las palabras del viejo
Los tres hermano pensaban

Pedro le dice a Fabian
Dale un trago a Jose Luis
Que beba de ese mezcal
Pa ke se sienta feliz
Que ahorita nomas llegar
Nos vamos a divertir

Cuando arribaron al baile
A bailar se dirigieron
La muerte andaba en el aire
Ellos no la presintieron
Como les dijo su padre
Cuando del rancho salieron

Eran muchos los rivales
Viejos rencores surgieron
Rondando tras los jacales
Abrieron todos el fuego
Asi matan los cobardes
Cuando los acosa el miedo

Un viejito solitario
Sin esperanza ninguna
Cuida el rancho y tres caballos
Como toda su fortuna
Va al panteón de vez en cuando
A visitar las tres tumbas

Las Tres Tumbas (Ranchera Version)

We set out at dawn,
As the roosters crowed.
It would be a two-day journey,
On the backs of our horses.
The party was being held,
At the pitayo ranch.

Our father gave us a warning,
As we prepared to leave.
Take good care of your skin,
Because life can end
In the words of the old man.
The three brothers pondered.

Pedro says to Fabian,
Give Jose Luis a drink.
Let him drink that mezcal,
So he can be happy.
Because as soon as we arrive,
We're going to have fun.

When we arrived at the dance,
We went to dance.
Death was in the air,
But we didn't sense it.
Just like our father said,
When we left the ranch.

There were many rivals,
Old grudges surfaced.
Lurking behind the shacks,
They all opened fire.
That's how cowards kill,
When fear haunts them.

An old man, alone,
Without any hope,
Watches over the ranch and three horses,
As his entire fortune.
He goes to the cemetery from time to time,
To visit the three graves.
