José Pérez León (original)José Pérez León (translation)
El era un hombre de campo He was a country man
Oriundo de Nuevo León Native of Nuevo Leon
Tenía apenas 19 años He was just 19 years old
Su nombre: José Pérez León His name of him: José Pérez León
Tenía un primo lejano He had a distant cousin
Que de mojado se fue How wet it went
Al poco tiempo le envió un telegrama Shortly after, he sent her a telegram
Diciendo ven pronto José Saying come soon José
Pues un trabajo le habían encontrando Well, they had found a job for him
Piscando algodón como él Picking cotton like him
Y se fue, y se fue And he's gone, and he's gone
Ahogando en llanto en el adiós Drowning in tears at goodbye
Con su mujer With his wife
Se fue, sin saber He left, not knowing
Que de ese viaje ya jamás iba a volver That from that trip he was never going to return
Pobre José poor joseph
Cuando llegó a la frontera When he reached the border
Con Willy se entrevistó With Willy he interviewed
Era el pollero más afamado He was the most famous chicken
Y astuto de la región And cunning of the region
Le dijo Pepe hoy estás de suerte Pepe told him today you're in luck
Mañana te cruzo yo… I'll cross you tomorrow...
La madrugada de un viernes The dawn of a Friday
En una vieja estación in an old station
20 inocentes pagaban su cuota 20 innocents paid their fee
Entre ellos José Pérez León Among them Jose Perez Leon
Y sin dudarlo a todos subieron And without hesitation they all went up
En el interior de un vagón Inside a wagon
El tren cruzó al otro lado The train crossed to the other side
Casi 7 horas después almost 7 hours later
Fue cuando el aire empezó a terminarse It was when the air began to run out
Y ya nada pudieron hacer And they couldn't do anything
Nadie escuchó aquellos gritos de auxilio No one heard those cries for help
Y la puerta no quiso ceder And the door did not want to give in
Uno por uno se fueron cayendo One by one they fell
Y asi falleció el buen José And that's how good José passed away
Y se fue, y se fue And he's gone, and he's gone
A cruzar el cielo con sus ancias de crecer To cross the sky with his ances to grow
Se fue, sin saber He left, not knowing
Que ya su esposa un hijo suyo iba a tener That his wife was going to have a child of his
Pobre José poor joseph
Así termina la historia, no queda más que contar This is how the story ends, there is nothing left to tell
De otro paisano que arriesga la vida From another countryman who risks his life
Y que muere como ilegal And that he dies as an illegal
De aquel José que mil sueños tenía y que a casa Of that José who had a thousand dreams and who went home
Jamás volvera…He will never come back...
