Mujeres Bravas
Los Rehenes
Brave Women
Beautiful and beloved Mexico, gentlemen
One of such sad stories, where there are such brave women
And in this story they say it.
Rosa and Juanita were left, orphaned by father and mother
They lived alone without relatives, they had no siblings
Juanita was the youngest, she would turn fifteen.
Juanita went down to the town, to try on her dress
But she looked so beautiful, Zeferino fancied her
And when she was returning, the wretch assaulted her
Juanita returned home, crying, with her clothes torn
And amid sobs she said, 'Oh, what a shame for my sister'
No one knew her misfortune, and time continued its march
Rosa and Juanita planned how their revenge would be
And Zeferino in the town, walked around very calmly
The awaited date arrived, and there is a dead man in the town
And the one who found him says that the body was incomplete
What was missing of a man, was eaten by the dogs
Rosa and Juanita in the temple, are celebrating fifteen years
