El Tahúr

Martín Estrada Contreras
A professional gambler
Had a love since childhood
That he could never forget
He set his sights very high
The son of the foreman

Raúl Vidal, a rich man
Stole Martín's love
With a shot in the leg
Martín left the town
After some time, he returned
And found her already married

Martín returned very wealthy
With Raúl, he came to play
But Raúl lost everything
He had nothing left to bet

You have something in life
That I could not achieve
I'll bet everything I have
If you want to play for her love
Raúl thought it over
And finally decided to accept

They revealed four aces
Raúl felt like dying
In the game, that's how the laws are
You have to learn to suffer
Raúl had four kings
There was nothing to discuss

Look, Raúl
To me, gambling debts
Are always debts of honor
I won
I won what I cherish the most
There was another previous debt
I think we are even now
And you pay up right away
If you have any honor left

Raúl returned with his wife
And as Martín opened the door
Vidal fired his gun
And his wife fell dead

Martín took her in his arms
And looking at his rival
He also pulled out his gun
And killed Mr. Raúl Vidal
