Ballad of Lucio Vazquez

Corrido de Lucio Vazquez

The peacocks flewVolaron los pavos reales
Heading to the wet mountain they killed Lucio VazquezRumbo a la sierra mojaba mataron a Lucio vásquez
For a young woman he lovedPor una joven que amaba

The peacocks flewVolaron los pavos reales
Heading to the wet mountain they killed Lucio VazquezRumbo a la sierra mojaba mataron a Lucio vásquez
For a young woman he lovedPor una joven que amaba

At nine o'clock at nightA las nueve de la noche
Lucio was already having dinner and some friends arrivedYa lucio estaba cenando y llegaron unos amigos
To invite him to a fandangoPara invitarlo a un fandango

Lucio was already having dinner and some friends arrivedYa lucio estaba cenando y llegaron unos amigos
To invite him to a fandangoPara invitarlo a un fandango

His mother told himSu madre se lo decía
Son of my heart don't go my dear sonHijo de mi corazón no vayas hijo de mi alma
Beware of betrayal, my heart tells meCuídate de una traición, me lo dice el corazón

Don't cry, dear motherNo llore, madre querida
Your crying makes me suffer because I'm going to see the ungrateful oneQue me hace sufrir su llanto pues voy a ver a la ingrata
The one who knows I love so muchLa que sabe que amo tanto

Don't cry, dear motherNo llore, madre querida
Your crying makes me suffer because I'm going to see the ungrateful oneQue me hace sufrir su llanto pues voy a ver a la ingrata
The one who knows I love so muchLa que sabe que amo tanto

They saddled the horsesEnsillaron los caballos
Heading to the wet mountain but Lucio didn't knowRumbo a la sierra mojada pero lucio no sabía
The betrayal that awaited himLa traición que le esperaba

Heading to the wet mountain but Lucio didn't knowRumbo a la sierra mojada pero lucio no sabía
The betrayal that awaited himLa traición que le esperaba

When they arrived at the danceCuando llegaron al baile
Everyone was dancing, the ungrateful one was there tooTodos andaban bailando también estaba la ingrata
The one Lucio loved so muchLa que Lucio amaba tanto

They offered him some drinksLe invitaron unas copas
Which he didn't want to accept, they started arguingQue él no quiso aceptar se hicieron ahí de palabras
And ended up fightingY salieron a pelear

They gave him three stabsTres puñaladas le dieron
From the back to the heart as his mother saidDe la espalda al corazón como lo dijo su madre
He was killed in betrayalLo mataron a traición

The three who stabbed himLos tres que lo apuñalaron
Sat down to smoke, laughingSe sentaron a fumar carcajeándose de risa
Hearing Lucio moanDe oír a lucio quejar

Sat down to smoke, laughingSe sentaron a fumar carcajeándose de risa
Hearing Lucio moanDe oír a lucio quejar

The three who stabbed himLos tres que lo apuñalaron
Went towards the pasture, walking very slowlySe fueron rumbo al potrero caminando muy despacio
The three cleaning their steelLos tres limpiando su acero
