Translation of the song lyrics Rosita Alvirez - Jenni Rivera

Rosita Alvirez (original)

Año de 1900 presente lo tengo yooo
En un barrio de Saltillo Rosita Alvirez murio
Rosita Alvirez murio
Su mama se lo decia:
Rosa esta noche no sales
Mama no tengo la culpa que a mi me gusten los bailes
Que a mi me gusten los bailes
Hipolito llego al baile y a Rosa se dirigio
Como era la mas bonita Rosita lo desairo
Rosita lo desairo
AH QUE ROSITA!
ERAS CANIJA MIJA!
Rosita no me desaires la gente lo va a notar
Pues que digan lo que quieran
Contigo no he de bailar
Contigo no he de bailar
Echo mano a la cintura y una pistola saco
A la pobre de Rosita nomas tres tiros le dio
Nomas tres tiros le dio
Rosita le dijo a Irene no te olvides de mi nombre
Cuando vayas a los bailes
No desprecies a los hombres
No desprecies a los hombres
El dia que la mataron Rosita estaba de suerte
De tres tiros que le dieron
Nomas uno era de muerte
Nomas uno era de muerte
La casa era colorada y estaba recien pintada
Con la sangre de Rosita le dieron otra pasada
Le dieron otra pasada
Rosita ya esta en el cielo dandole cuenta al creador
Hipolito esta en la carcel dando su declaracion

Rosita Alvirez (translation)

Year of 1900 present I have it yooo
In a neighborhood of Saltillo Rosita Alvirez died
Rosita Alvirez died
Her mother told her:
Rosa tonight you do not go out
Mom, it's not my fault that I like dances
That I like dances
Hipolito arrived at the dance and Rosa went
She as she was the prettiest Rosita snubbed him
Rosita snubbed him
OH WHAT A ROSE!
YOU WERE CANIJA MIJA!
Rosita don't snub me people will notice
So let them say what they want
I don't have to dance with you
I don't have to dance with you
I reach for my waist and pull out a pistol
She gave poor Rosita just three shots
She just three shots she gave him
Rosita told Irene don't forget my name
When you go to the dances
don't despise men
don't despise men
The day Rosita was killed she was in luck
Of three shots they gave him
Nomas one was of death
Nomas one was of death
The house was red and freshly painted
With Rosita's blood they gave him another pass
She got another pass
Rosita is already in heaven telling the creator
Hipolito is in jail giving his statement
