La Troca Del Moño Negro
Los Originales De San Juan
The Truck with the Black Bow
I told my father
I want you to come with me,
I want to drink tonight
like two great friends
To tell you, dad
how much I've loved you
You will only accompany me
until we see the dawn
because when the sun rises
I have a heavy fight
if you don't see me again, luck
was already cast
I don't want to alarm you
but I have a feeling
I just want to tell you that the time has come
Death is coming for me
I have a premonition
I just want to ask you not to cry if I die
since I was very young
I believed you were the man
of steel, don't bend
when they take my skin
Give me a hug, dad, maybe
it's goodbye, you have been
my protector
also my dear mother
you were a great man and I never forget that
They lay me on my truck
if I don't come out alive from this
on my waist, my gun
also my goat horn
so that at my funeral I want
them to go with me
Put a bow on my truck
and paint it black
let it serve as a hearse
heading to the cemetery
and keep it
in the garage that holds many memories
