Текст и перевод песни Los Cuates de Sinaloa - El Diez de Mayo

El Diez de Mayo

Era un diez de mayo estando yo preso
Cuando un telegrama a mi celda llego

Era mi padre, quien lo mandaba
En el me decía, tu madre murió

En aquel instante grite al carcelero
Me diera permiso, para irla a ver

Pero me ignoraron, no me hicieron caso
Y yo con mi pena, sin saber que hacer

De pronto se vino, a mi un pensamiento
En aquel instante acabo lleve

Mate a un centinela, y no me arrepiento
Porque yo a mi madre, tenia que ir a ver

Oí unas sirenas, y gritos de alerta
Y yo presuroso, corrí sin parar

Llegando a mi casa, al abrir la puerta
Estaban dos guardias, junto a mi mama

Después de besarla, me detuvieron
Diez años me dieron, aquella acción

Así pude darle, el ultimo beso
Que importa morirme, aquí en la prisión

The Tenth of May

It was the tenth of May, and I was in prison
When a telegram arrived at my cell

It was my father who sent it
He told me, your mother died

At that moment, I yelled to the jailer
To give me permission, to go and see her

But they ignored me, they didn't pay attention
And I, with my sorrow, not knowing what to do

Suddenly, a thought came to me
In that moment, I decided

I killed a guard, and I don't regret it
Because I had to see my mother

I heard sirens and shouts of warning
And I, in a hurry, ran without stopping

Arriving at my house, when I opened the door
Two guards were there, next to my mom

After kissing her, they arrested me
They gave me ten years, for that act

That's how I was able to give her, the last kiss
What does it matter if I die, here in prison
