Translation of the song lyrics Don Marcos - Joan Sebastian

Don Marcos (original)

De caballos y valientes
Se han trobado mil corridos
Pero este es muy diferente
Afinen bien sus sentidos
No es de una traicion de amores
Ni es una historia de narcos
Es la historia de un ranchero
El corrido de Don Marcos
Amansador de potrancas
Enamorado deveras
Se brinco todas las tranca
Para el nunca hubo fronteras
«el ilegal», «viejo joven»
Sus canciones verdaderas
Nacio el dieciocho de Junio
Y murio el ocho de Agosto
Su gusto por los caballos
Le cobro el mas alto costo
Si canto no es porque pueda
Si lloro no es por cobarde
En mi alma hay toque de queda
Le estoy cantando a mi padre
Amansador de potrancas
Enamorado deveras
Se brinco todas las tranca
Para el nunca hubo fronteras
Ay!
Ilegal, viejo joven
Si que dolio que te fueras
No te hice cruz de madera
Ni te hice cruz de cemento
Solo te hice este corrido
Y en mi alma tu monumento

(translation)

Of horses and brave
A thousand corridos have been found
But this one is very different
Sharpen your senses
It is not a betrayal of love
Nor is it a story of drug traffickers
It is the story of a rancher
The corrido of Don Marcos
Filly tamer
really in love
He jumped all the bars
For him there were never borders
"the illegal one", "old young man"
their true songs
Born on the eighteenth of June
And he died on the eighth of August
His taste for horses
I charge the highest cost
If I sing it is not because I can
If I cry it's not because I'm a coward
In my soul there is a curfew
I'm singing to my father
Filly tamer
really in love
He jumped all the bars
For him there were never borders
Oh!
illegal old young
Yes, it hurt that you left
I did not make you a wooden cross
I didn't even make you a cement cross
I only made you this corrido
And in my soul your monument
