Descansa General
Pasan los años, tu recuerdo está en la historia
De Pancho Villa, que a su México dejó
Y en su memoria, con orgullo, lo decía
Acepto el reto que la vida me marcó
Fue Pancho Villa, decidido y muy valiente
Y su grandeza lo llevó hasta general
Estuvo preso por delitos cometidos
Y allá en su celda comenzaba a deletrear
Descansa, general
Reposa, gran tesoro
Por tus hazañas de oro
Mi México, te amo
Autodidacto es el nombre que merece
Por ser valiente y que solo se formó
Vengó con gusto la deshonra de su hermana
Y allá en sus tropas, treinta hombres mandó
Si ya no late aquel pecho que gritaba
Porque rendido un cobarde lo mató
Y qué ganaron con cortarle la cabeza
Si su grandeza era de él, se la llevó
Rest General
The years go by, your memory is in history
Of Pancho Villa, who left his mark on Mexico
And in his memory, proudly, he said
I accept the challenge that life marked me with
It was Pancho Villa, determined and very brave
And his greatness led him to the rank of general
He was imprisoned for crimes committed
And there in his cell, he began to spell
Rest, general
Rest, great treasure
For your golden deeds
My Mexico, I love you
Self-taught is the name he deserves
For being brave and self-educated
He avenged with pleasure the dishonor of his sister
And there in his troops, he commanded thirty men
If that chest that used to shout no longer beats
Because a coward killed him
And what did they gain by cutting off his head
If his greatness belonged to him, he took it with him
