Anselma Guzman

Anselma was washing by the edge of a spring.
The levy passed by singing
In front was a captain.
The levy passed by singing
In front was a captain.

Seeing such a beautiful brunette
The captain liked her.
And he didn't speak to her kindly,
By force he took her away.

Cipriano, Anselma's brother,
Fought with the captain,
Brave as a beast
And he couldn't win.

The captain with gunshots
Killed Cipriano Guzman
And Anselma on his arms
Watched him agonize.

The troop had marched
Far away from that place,
And that cowardly villain
Wanted to enjoy his prey.
And that cowardly villain
Wanted to enjoy his prey.

They both fell to the ground
The female and the criminal,
Anselma got the gun
And shot the captain.
Anselma got the gun
And shot the captain.

He knelt little by little.
Then he kissed the ground,
Released her beautiful hair
And then shouted to the wind:
You are avenged, little brother
From this cowardly killer!
