Текст и перевод песни Ramón Ayala y Sus Bravos del Norte - El Bandido de Amores

El Bandido de Amores

Todos atentos señores
Que voy a cantarles
Un nuevo corrido
De un hombre que era valiente,
Alegre y descente
De eso soy testigo.

Con las damas caballero
Amigos sincero
Fue de los mejores
Entre las hembras hermosas
Se ganó su apodo
El bandido de amores.

Cuando el bandido llegaba
La banda tocaba
Gabino Barrera
Porque era indio sureño
Y padre de muchos
Frontera a frontera.

Un día domingo en el pueblo
Conoce a una chula
Saliendo de misa
Reverencio su sombrero
Y la chula coqueta
Con el se desliza.

Ya por la noche en la feria
Andaba en sus brazos
Estando pedida
No imaginaba mi amigo
Que por esa hembra
Perdierá la vida.

Cuando el bandido bailaba
La banda tocaba
Gabino Barrera
El novio andaba tomando
Decía al cantinero
Mi novia me espera.

Luego se va para el baile
Descubre a la ingrata
Hallá entre la bola
Se le acercó por la espalda
Y contra el bandido
Vació su pistola.

El novio ya esta en la cárcel
El bandido muerto y la coqueta sola,
El novio ya esta en la cárcel
El bandido muerto y la coqueta sola.

The Bandit of Love

All attention gentlemen
Because I am going to sing to you
A new corrido
Of a man who was valiant,
Cheerful and decent
Of that I am witness.

A gentleman with ladies
A sincere friend
He was one of the best
Amongst beautiful women
He earned his nickname
The bandit of love.

When the bandit arrived
The band would play
Gabino Barrera
Because he was a southern Indian
And father of many
From border to border.

One Sunday in town
He met a beautiful woman
Leaving church
He tipped his hat
And the flirtatious beauty
Slipped away with him.

Later that evening at the fair
He was in her arms
Even though she was engaged
My friend never imagined
Because of that woman
He would lose his life.

When the bandit danced
The band played
Gabino Barrera
The groom was drinking
He told the bartender
My girlfriend is waiting for me.

Then he went to the dance
He discovered the ungrateful woman
In the middle of the crowd
He approached her from behind
And emptied his gun
into the bandit.

The groom is now in prison
The bandit is dead, and the flirtatious woman is alone,
The groom is already in prison
The bandit is dead, and the flirtatious woman is alone.
