The Criminal

El Criminal

I'm going to sing you the storyVoy a cantarles la historia
Gentlemen, what happened in the barretalSeñores que paso en el barretal
A man and a woman have already diedUn hombre y una mujer ya se han muerto
At the hands of a criminalEn manos de un criminal

The moon was shining brightlyLa luna se daba gusto brillando
When that man arrivedCuando aquel hombre llego
His son was crying in the cradleSu hijo estaba en la cuna llorando
And he couldn't find his wifeY a su mujer no encontró

Under the branches of a very large treeBajo las ramas de un árbol muy grande
Two bodies can be seenDos cuerpos se dejan ver
One was that traitor and cowardUno era de aquel traidor y cobarde
And the other his wifeY el otro el de su mujer

The villain approached so silentlySe acerca tan silencioso el villano
That he didn't even want to breatheQue ni quería resollar
He was holding a dagger in his handIba empuñando una daga en su mano
He was ready to killIba dispuesto a matar

More than sixty times his handMas de sesenta ocaciones su mano
Managed to sink the daggerLa daga lograba hundir
And the villain didn't stop sinking itY no dejaba de hundirla el villano
Until he saw them dieHasta que los vio morir

When he saw his dead wifeCuando vio a su esposa muerta
He said, traitor, you deserve moreLe dijo traidora mereces mas
May God take care of your sonQue dios se encargue del mundo de tu hijo
You're going to hellQue tu pal infierno vas

The judge who sentenced himEl juez que dicto sentencia
Told him your crime is provenLe dijo tu crimen probado esta
To the harm they did to meAl daño que ellos lograron hacerme
What punishment do you giveQue nombramiento le das

I know I'm going to jailYo se que voy a la cárcel
That's why I'm going to pay for my crimePor eso voy mi delito a pagar
And if they tell me in jail that they've returnedY si en la cárcel me dicen que han vuelto
I'll come out and kill them againSalgo y los vuelvo a matar
