Las Tres Tumbas
Salieron de madrugada
Se oía el canto de los gallos
Iban a ser dos jornadas,
A lomo de sus caballos
La fiesta se celebraba,
En el rancho del pitayo
Su padre les dio un consejo
Cuando apartir se aprestan
Cuiden muy bien el pellejo
Por que la vida se acaba
En las palabras del viejo
Los tres hermano pensaban
Pedro le dice a fabian
Dale un trago a jose luis
Que beba de ese mezcal
Pa ke se sienta feliz
Que ahorita nomas llegar
Nos vamos a divertir
Cuando arribaron al baile
A bailar se dirigieron
La muerte andaba en el aire
Ellos no la presintieron
Como les dijo su padre
Cuando del rancho salieron
Eran muchos los rivales
Viejos rencores surgieron
Rondando tras los jacales
Abrieron todos el fuego
Asi matan los cobardes
Cuando los acosa el miedo
Un viejito solitario
Sin esperanza ninguna
Cuida el rancho y tres caballos
Como toda su fortuna
Va al panteón de vez en cuando
A visitar las tres tumbas
The Three Graves
They left at dawn
The roosters were crowing
It was going to be a two-day journey,
On the back of their horses
The party was being held,
At the pitayo ranch
Their father gave them advice
As they were about to leave
Take good care of yourselves
Because life ends
In the words of the old man
The three brothers thought
Pedro tells Fabian
Give Jose Luis a drink
Let him drink that mezcal
So he can feel happy
As soon as we arrive
We're going to have fun
When they arrived at the dance
They headed to dance
Death was in the air
They didn't sense it
As their father had told them
When they left the ranch
There were many rivals
Old grudges arose
Lurking behind the huts
They all opened fire
That's how cowards kill
When fear haunts them
An old lonely man
Without any hope
Takes care of the ranch and three horses
As his entire fortune
He goes to the cemetery from time to time
To visit the three graves
