Текст и перевод песни Los Cadetes De Linares - Los Dos Amigos

Los Dos Amigos

Estos eran dos amigos
Que venían de Mapimí
Que por no venirse de Oquis
Robaron, Guanaceví

Ellos traiban dos caballos
Un oscuro y un jovero
En el oscuro cargan ropa
Y en el jovero el dinero

También traiban maquinaria
Y muy buenas baterías
Para desclavar los rieles
Y hacer los cambios de vía

Martín le dice a José
No te pongas amarillo
Vamos a robar el tren
Que viene de Bermejillo

Amarillo no me pongo
Amarillo es mi color
He robado trenes grandes
Y máquinas de vapor

Válgame el santo niñito
Ya agarraron a José
En la esquina del mercado
Lo ataron y se les fue

Sería por sus oraciones
Que su madre le rezaba
Sería por su buena suerte
Que a José no le tocaba

The Two Friends

These were two friends, my dear,
Coming from Mapimí,
And not wanting to come empty-handed,
They robbed Guanaceví.

They had two horses, you see,
A dark one and a sorrel,
On the dark one they carried clothes,
And on the sorrel, the money, my love.

They also had tools, it's true,
And very good batteries,
To pull up the rails, my sweet,
And make the track changes.

Martín says to José, my dear,
"Don't turn yellow on me,"
"We're going to rob the train, my love,
The one coming from Bermejillo."

"Yellow I won't turn, my sweet,
Yellow is my color,"
I've robbed big trains, you see,
And steam engines, my dear."

Bless the holy child above,
They've caught José, it's true,
On the corner of the market, my love,
They tied him up and he got away.

It must have been her prayers, you see,
That his mother prayed for him,
It must have been his good luck, my dear,
That José wasn't meant to be caught.
