Juan Colorado

Juan Colorado is my nameJuan colorado me llamo
I am a gentleman from MichoacánSoy señores de michoacán
And even the most outgoing ones, when they see me, go away gloomyY hasta los mas salidores al mirarme mustios se van
I bring on my horse and my saddle, which is made of leather, silver, and ivoryTraigo en mi cuaco y mi silla que es de cuero plata y marfíl
And two pistols on my belt for anyone who enters the coamilY dos pistolas al cinto para aquel que entre al coamil

Long live my land Michoacán and give me charanda to toastQue viva mi tierra michoacán y denme charanda pa' brindar
For Juan Colorado is already hereQue juan colorado ya esta aqui
Riding his horse, the hurricaneMontado en su cuaco el huracán

Through the mountains and valleysPor las montañas y valles
On my horse, I cross swiftlyEn mi cuaco cruzo veloz
And in every town I pass throughY en cada pueblo que paso
I always leave a love aliveSiempre dejo vivo un amor
When I meet a determined one who wants to fight face to faceCuando me encuentro un resuelto que de frente quiera peliar
By my gun or machete, for my luckPor mi pistola o machete por mi suerte
I will winYo he de ganar

Long live my land MichoacánQue viva mi tierra michoacán
And give me charanda to toastY denme charanda pa' brindar
For Juan Colorado is here nowQue juan colorado aqui esta ya
Riding his horse, the hurricaneMontado en su cuaco el huracán

Juan Colorado is leaving, he came here to greet themYa se va juan colorado ya los vino aqui a saludar
And whoever seeks me will find me on the way to ApatzingánY el que me busque me encuentra por el rumbo de apatzingan
Always seeking adventures, I go eagerly with great zealSiempre buscando aventuras voy deseoso con mucho afan
Through those flowery fields of my land, which is MichoacánPor esos campos floridos de mi tierra que es michoacan

Long live my land MichoacánQue viva mi tierra michoacán
And give me charanda to toastY denme charanda pa' brindar
For Juan Colorado is leavingQue juan colorado ya se va
Riding his horse, the hurricaneMontado en su cuaco el huracán

Long live my land MichoacánQue viva mi tierra michoacán
And give me charanda to toastY denme charanda pa' brindar
For Juan Colorado is leavingQue juan colorado ya se va
Riding his horse, the hurricaneMontado en su cuaco el huracán
