Descenlace
Los Betos
Outcome
Close to the snowfall, in the lands of La Guajira
A beautiful native, from that prosperous region
She gave her love to a Guajiro student
Who came to a city in search of education
And started a career that was his greatest delirium
Vacations arrived and the student returned
Because they loved each other so much, they were desperate
Their love was beautiful, their courtship was an example
And the years went by as he pursued his profession
And she patiently waited, faithful to her boyfriend for ten years.
The desired moment arrived, what the girlfriend longed for
Because when he finished, they would get married
What she didn't know was that the professional
Thought he should find someone educated like him
And not the one who loved him and had waited so long
He never wrote to her again or asked about her
While she, engulfed in sorrow, cried bitter tears
He returned to his family with another girlfriend
It was said that the wedding would be on October 12
Because that day coincided with the patron saint's celebration.
But there are unforgivable mistakes in life
That can even cost a good man his life
Because a woman hurt and blinded by jealousy
Swore that before losing him, she would end her life
With her evil plan in mind, she went to the other side of town
She arrived at the dance hall and spotted him immediately
And in a fit of rage, she went to where he was
She hugged him, then shot him, taking his life
And then she committed suicide, saying these words
If you mocked my life here, maybe you'll love me in heaven.
