Текст и перевод песни Sergio Contreras - La Leyenda

La Leyenda

Mira tu que cosa, más linda y sabrosa,
Rap latino y en andaluz...
Abro mi boca con la intencion de seguir la historia
Y para ti,"pa" ti, mi prosa.
Ven que hoy te canto de corazon a ti,
Ya esta bien amigo mio de tanto fingir
Rap latino y en andaluz, todo mezclado,"pa"que lo "goses" tu...
Una historia verdadera que dice...
Una chica bonita, bonita, inteligente, humilde, trabajadora,
Como a sus amigas, le gustaba rumbear,
En la plaza o en el solar, hasta altas horas,

Diecisiete primaveras, su piel, morena,
Morena... color de tierra,
Llama la atencion, la pobre Maria;
Cuando bailaba esta plenayo me moria...
Era verano, la plaza estaba llena,
Todos los cubanos con arte rumbeando,
A ritmo de un guaguanco, mira sabroso,
Caliente y marchoso, yo me cojo
Ahi va Maria, sale a la pista,
Al fondo un chico no le quita ojo,
Ella lo mira mientras lo baila sin despojo,
Al cabo de un rato el se le acerca
Y le dice algo al oido,
No termina de bailar
Y ya se ha ido, sigue la fiesta, pero ya es diferente
Esa noche pasaba algo, se nota, se huele en el ambiente...

Hoy te traigo la leyenda...
El secreto de Maria que nadie conoce,
Hoy te traigo la leyenda...
Conoceras por fin la historia, oscura historia,
Hoy te traigo la leyenda...
El secreto de Maria que nadie conoce,
Hoy te traigo la leyenda...
Que se forjo en la habana, escucha tu mi pana!

OYE¡ mira tu que cosa, mas linda y sabrosa,
Rap latino y en andaluz...
Abro mi boca con la intencion de seguir mi historia
Y para ti,"pa" ti, mi prosa,
Ven que hoy te canto de corazon a ti,
Ya esta bien amigo mio de tanto fingir
Rap latino y en andaluz, todo mezclado,
"Pa" que lo "gose" tu!...
Se hace de dia, seis de la mañana, abre sus grandes
Y verdes ojos Maria,
Treinta y cinco grados, pero ella tiene frio,
No puede ni comer, le tiemblan las manos,
Como cada dia, directa al malecom, alli
Trabaja limpiando la estacion,
Hoy pasando por su barrio (CAYO HUESO),
Ni un piropo, ya no le tiran besos.
La sorpresa se refleja en su cara,
La estacion no esta limpia y esta cerrada,
Fuera en el porton, un papel pegado,
Disculpen las molestias, cerrado por defuncion,
El chico aquel anoche en la velada,
Llevaba enamorado de la muchacha
Poco más de cuatro meses y algun que otro dia,
Estaba ciego, llevado por la ira,
En medio de la noche, le oi gritar:
"O MIA O PA NADIE MARIA!"
Ella no entiende nada, pobre Maria,
Aun no sabe que fue ASESINADA...

Hoy te traigo la leyenda...
El secreto de Maria que nadie conoce,
Hoy te traigo la leyenda...
Conoceras por fin la historia, oscura historia,
Hoy te traigo la leyenda...
El secreto de Maria que nadie conoce,
Hoy te traigo la leyenda...
Que se forjo en la habana, escucha tu mi pana!(2)

The Legend

Look at you, what a beautiful and delicious thing,
Latin rap and in Andalusian...
I open my mouth with the intention of continuing the story
And for you, "pa" you, my prose.
Come, today I sing to you from the heart,
Enough, my friend, of so much pretending
Latin rap and in Andalusian, all mixed up, for you to "enjoy"...
A true story that says...
A beautiful, beautiful girl, intelligent, humble, hard-working,
Like her friends, she liked to party,
In the plaza or in the yard, until late hours,

Seventeen springs, her skin, brown,
Brown... earth-colored,
She attracts attention, poor Maria;
When she danced, this whole place would die...
It was summer, the plaza was full,
All the Cubans artfully dancing,
To the rhythm of a guaguanco, look how tasty,
Hot and lively, I take
There goes Maria, she goes out to the dance floor,
In the background, a boy doesn't take his eyes off her,
She looks at him while she dances without reserve,
After a while he approaches her
And whispers something in her ear,
She doesn't finish dancing
And she's already gone, the party continues, but it's already different
Something was happening that night, you can tell, you can smell it in the air...

Today I bring you the legend...
Maria's secret that nobody knows,
Today I bring you the legend...
You will finally know the story, the dark story,
Today I bring you the legend...
Maria's secret that nobody knows,
Today I bring you the legend...
That was forged in Havana, listen my friend!

HEY! Look at you, what a beautiful and delicious thing,
Latin rap and in Andalusian...
I open my mouth with the intention of continuing my story
And for you, "pa" you, my prose,
Come, today I sing to you from the heart,
Enough, my friend, of so much pretending
Latin rap and in Andalusian, all mixed up,
For you to "enjoy" it!...
It becomes day, six in the morning, she opens her big
And green eyes Maria,
Thirty-five degrees, but she's cold,
She can't even eat, her hands are shaking,
Like every day, straight to the Malecon, there
She works cleaning the station,
Today passing through her neighborhood (CAYO HUESO),
Not a single catcall, they don't blow her kisses anymore.
The surprise is reflected on her face,
The station is not clean and it is closed,
Outside on the gate, a paper stuck,
Sorry for the inconvenience, closed due to death,
That boy last night at the party,
Had been in love with the girl
A little over four months and some other day,
He was blind, driven by anger,
In the middle of the night, I heard him shout:
"MINE OR FOR NO ONE MARIA!"
She doesn't understand anything, poor Maria,
She still doesn't know that she was MURDERED...

Today I bring you the legend...
Maria's secret that nobody knows,
Today I bring you the legend...
You will finally know the story, the dark story,
Today I bring you the legend...
Maria's secret that nobody knows,
Today I bring you the legend...
That was forged in Havana, listen my friend!(2)
