El Herradero

The Rodeo

El Herradero

Oh, how beautiful,¡ay! que linda,
How lovely is the party at my ranch,Que rechula es la fiesta de mi rancho,
With its girls, mariachis, and songs,Con sus chinas, mariachis y canciones,
And those cowboys wearing wide-brimmed hats.Y esos charros que traen sombero ancho.

How pretty!,¡qué bonita!,
That chestnut and bird-catching mare,Esa yegua alazana y pajarera,
To teach her to throw a lasso,Pa' enseñarle a hechar una mangana,
And ride her and tame her.Y montarla y quitárle lo matrera.

How lovely is the party in the lowlands,Que rechula es la fiesta del bajío,
How beautiful are its women and sun,Hay que lindas sus hembras y sol,
Little corner that holds my love,Rinconcito que guarda el amor mío,
Oh, my life, yours is my heart.¡ay!, mi vida tuyo es mi corazón.

(music)(música)

And now is the time,Y ahora es cuando,
Guys, let's have a good time,Valedores a darse un buen quemón,
That mare coming from the pasture,Que esa yegua que viene del potrero,
Is only good for the boss's devil.Sólo es buena pa'l diablo del patrón.

Women,Las mujeres,
Should be like all the fillies,Han de ser como todas las potrancas,
That get trained and tamed by their owner,Que se ingren y se mansan con su dueño,
And cannot carry a rider on their backs.Y no pueden llevar jinete en ancas.

How lovely is the party in the lowlands,Que rechula es la fiesta del bajío,
How beautiful are its women and sun,Hay que lindas sus hembras y sol,
Little corner that holds my love,Rinconcito que guarda el amor mío,
Oh, my life, yours is my heart¡ay!, mi vida tuyo es mi corazón
