Camarón

The afternoon arrives, the time has comeLlego, llego la tarde
To respond to the masterDe responderle al amo
He has an anxiety for tragedyTiene ansiedad de tragedia
For my death or my lifePor mi muerte o mi vida
His heart skips a beat in farewellSe le salta el corazón de despedida
As a trophy of emotionDe trofeo de emoción
For my death or my lifePor mi muerte o por mi vida

Take off the cockfighting restraints to fight, I was raisedQuitame gallero trabas para reñir fui criado
I have a square cane and a very proud chestTengo la caña cuadrada y el pecho muy levantado
Have faith in my breed, cockfighterTen fe en mi casta gallero
I come from good lineageQue soy de buena camada
Stop caressing me and take off the cockfighting restraintsDeja ya de acariciarme y qui­tame gallero trabas

I was born, I grew up waiting for the challenge, death or victoryNací, crecí­ esperando el reto muerte o victoria
Now the master's gaze and the cockpit are calling meYa la mirada del amo y el galpón me estan gritando
Anxiety overwhelms me with courageSe me angustia la ansiedad con el coraje
And that protective farewell from the cockfighter in the plumageY aquel adiós protector del gallero en el plumaje
Take off the cockfighting restraints to fight, I was raisedQuitame gallero trabas para reñir fui criado
I have a square cane and a very proud chestTengo la caña cuadrada y el pecho muy levantado
Have faith in my breed, cockfighterTen fe en mi casta gallero
I come from good lineageQue soy de buena camada
Stop caressing me and take off the cockfighting restraintsDeja ya de acariciarme y quitame gallero trabas

I am a fine little rooster, cock-a-doodle-doo from good lineageQue soy un gallito fino kikiriki de buena camada
I am proud of my breed and of the one who raised meTengo orgullo de mi casta y de aquel que me criara
I am a fierce rooster, one of those from time to timeQue soy un gallazo fiero de aquellos de vez en cuando
Who wants to live by winning or die fightingQue quiere vivir venciendo o se ha de morir matando
