La Cucaracha(original) |
Voy a cantar un corrido |
Que anda en toditas las voces |
De una mujer de la tropa |
Que todo el mundo conoce |
En el pueblo de Conejos |
Por unas calles muy tiestas |
Viene triste y derrotado |
El valiente Antonio Zeta |
La cucaracha, la cucaracha |
Ya no puede caminar |
Porque le falta, porque no tiene |
Marihuana que fumar |
Iban los tres en silencio |
Sus pensamientos rumiando |
Mientras el destino ciego |
Los hilos iba tramando |
En los cascos del caballo |
Suena el polvo del camino |
Ya se van, llora un cariño |
Un cariño malogrado |
Ya el águila voló |
Ya el nopal quedó solito |
El fruto de tus amores |
Ya no dista del olvido |
Ya murió la cucaracha |
Ya la llevan a enterrar |
Entre cuatro zopilotes |
Y un gato de sacristán |
Y aquí termina el corrido |
Que cantó a la cucaracha |
(translation) |
I'm going to sing a corrido |
What is in all the voices |
From a woman in the troop |
that everyone knows |
In the rabbit town |
Through some very stiff streets |
He comes sad and defeated |
The brave Antonio Zeta |
The cockroach the cockroach |
can no longer walk |
Because he lacks, because he doesn't have |
marijuana to smoke |
The three went in silence |
Your ruminating thoughts |
While blind fate |
The threads were weaving |
in the horse's hooves |
The dust of the road sounds |
They're leaving, a love cries |
a lost love |
The eagle has already flown |
The nopal was left alone |
The fruit of your love |
no longer far from oblivion |
The cockroach is already dead |
They already take her to bury |
Between four buzzards |
And a sacristan's cat |
And here the corrido ends |
who sang to the cockroach |
