Текст и перевод песни Ramon Ayala y Sus Bravos Del Norte - Corrido De Macario Leyva

Corrido De Macario Leyva

Contratan dos pistoleros que de Acapulco vinieron
A darle muerte a Macario, el de rancho ganadero
Cuando llegaron al rancho, como no los conocian
Señora somos agentes, agentes de policia
Les contesto la señora, mi esposo se acaba de ir
Pasen pa' dentro señores, ya no tardara en venir

Cuando pasaron pa' dentro, se quitaron sus sombreros
Demonstrando a la señora que eran unos caballeros
Luego que lo ven venir, uno al otro se sonrió
El dinero esta en la bolsa, este tigre ya cayó...
Pero nunca se fijaron a tan humilde señora
Por la espalda les dio muerte con una metralladora

Decia Don Macario Leyva, venga mi esposa querida
Si no ha sido tu valor, estos me quitan la vida
Y asi termino la historia, de alla del rancho La Sagas
Se acabaron dos pistolas, de esas que matan por paga

Ballad Of Macario Leyva

They hired two gunslingers, directly from Acapulco Town,
To kill the wealthy rancher, by the name of Macario Brown.
Upon arriving at his ranch, and not being recognized,
They claimed to the rancher's wife, they were police in disguise.
The lady of the house replied, "My husband just walked out the door,"
"Come on in, gentlemen, he will be back very soon, I am sure."

As they entered the residence, they removed their hats with grace,
Bowing to the lady, showing her they were gentlemen, not a disgrace,
Waiting for her husband to stroll in, the two men smiled at each other.
Thinking, "The money is almost ours, this fool just met his undertaker."
But they never noticed the woman's eyes, holding cunning and deceit,
Because from behind, she quickly drew a machine gun and shot them at their feet.

Then Don Macario Leyva said, "Come here my dearest wife,
Without your bravery and quick thinking, these men would have taken my life."
And so goes the end of this tale, from a ranchito called La Saguas,
No more paid assassins, no more shooting, no more thugs.
