Mariachi Serenade

B: Bernardo P: Porfirio

B: How are you Porfirio?
P: What's up Bernardo?
B: Well, here you see me, I come to serenade my little girl who lives here in this neighborhood.
P: Well, what a coincidence, mine also lives in this neighborhood.
B: And are you also serenading?
P: Well, yes, but not really.
B: And why not?
P: I don't have enough money to hire the musicians.
B: But, man, between buddies, between debts, troubles...
P: Among buddies
B: Among those, let's share my mariachi
P: Share your ma... well, thanks Bernardo!
B: Well, I'll lend you my mariachi!
P: Well, thanks Bernardo!
B: You go first!
P: Well, thanks!
B: Bernardo!
P: Bernardo!
B: Mariachi music!

P: Ten days and ten nights with my heart on fire
From Guadalajara this cowboy has come
And although I'm very sore, the effort has been worth it
Because your love has left me stupid

Come on Bernardo, sing to your girl now!

B: Well, thanks,
I have crossed the states of Chihuahua, Tamaulipas, and Aguas Calientes
Guanajuato, Durango, and Zacatecas, with love and a carnation between my teeth
Galloping I have crossed so many states, so many endless states
That I have swallowed the carnation and my state is lamentable

P: At the foot of the fence, B: At the foot of the balcony
P: With soul and with art, B: I am standing
P: My dark-skinned virgin, B: My beautiful darling
P: I come to sing to you, B: Your love has struck me
P: Well, I want to take you, B: I find myself in a predicament
P: Right to the church, B: With such a feat
B+P: Well, I want to tell you that my soul appreciates you, Maria Lucrecia

B: What?. P: Huh? B: Huh?

Bb
P: Hey man, Maria Lucrecia is my girl!
B: Well, she's not your girl!
P: Hey, she is my girl!
B: Well, Porfirio, let's see who Maria Lucrecia prefers
P: Come on!

B: I feel tied to you by your smile and those teeth
The profile of your nose and your innocent breasts
P: Your beloved dark, messy hair
Clear image of a hook that I bit fascinated

Bb
B: Get out of here Porfirio!
P: I'm not going anywhere!
B: Get out!
P: I'm not going!

B: I feel tied to you
P: Your beloved hair
B: Your smile and those teeth
P: Dark, messy
B: The profile of your nose
P: Clear image of a hook
B: And your innocent breasts
P: That I bit fascinated

B: On this night of warm contours

P: Warm? It's freezing cold.

B: I come to toast you

P: What is this rude guy going to toast you?

B: My crazy passion

P: Didn't I tell you? He thinks you're crazy

B: If I disturb your dreams

P: Of course he disturbs them with that hoarse voice

B: Forgive me, darling

P: If he's asking for forgiveness, it's because he feels guilty

B: But I also come to offer you

P: What future awaits you, a street vendor

B: My love song

P: He's lying, believe me Lucrecia, this cowboy doesn't love you at all!

B: And damn it, with pure tequila,
I'll carry you on my back and we'll go together

P: No Bernardo, I'm not going anywhere with you!

B: And if I boast, I'll stand by it
Because everyone backs down

P: Well, I won't back down!

B: With my gun

P: With your di... well, I will!

B: Maria Lucrecia, come with me

P: Maria Lucrecia, come with me

B+P: Oh Lucrecia, don't back down, I offer you:

P: A rose
B: Two geraniums
P: Six carnations
B: A jungle

P: A diamond of pearls
B: A silver ring
P: A gold bracelet
B: A uranium bracelet

P: A storm of passions
B: A raincoat

P: A prosperous future
B: Two prosperous futures
P: A bucolic setting
B: A... a...

P: Well Maria Lucrecia, what I offer you is a tender home
B: Well
P: And I...
B: No middlemen

B: Oh Lucrecia, you've gone silent

P: Listen Bernardo, look

B: I feel like I'm already winning you over

P: No, no, no, none of that, listen...

B: You've become so still and silent

P: Listen Bernardo

B: I can't hear you because I'm singing

P: No, no, no, you've killed her with a shot

B: I've left you with blank eyes

P: Well, she's dead

B: You let out a big sigh

P: As if it was the last one

B: I feel you dead from love

P: That's it, she's dead

B: From looooove...

P: No, not exactly from love, look, you killed her with, with, You killed her!
B: I killed her?
P: Completely
P: And how?
P: And just now with the shootout
B: Just now with the shootout? What a weakling!
P: Well, you're right!
B+P: The woman who doesn't want to hear my song has ceased to exist.
