Plan de Ayala
Corridos Mexicanos
Plan of Ayala
In nineteen eleven
Before Christmas
General Emiliano
Launched the liberating plan
It was in the Villa de Ayala
That the southern army
Put into words and papers
What he wrote in gunpowder
Because Francisco I. Madero
Preserved freedom
That with cannons and blood
The people conquered
We did not shed blood
To hand over power
Nor for their meager will
To govern us
That's why Chief Zapata
Soon disowned him
Because the wolf took
The sheep's skin
We don't want deals
With the boss's people
We'd rather walk alone
Than with so many scoundrels
Emiliano's word
Says that now they should give us
All the land and water
Usurped by so many thieves
Long live all the peoples
With this revolution
And may the estates die
The bosses and the boss
