Leonardo was 30 years oldLeonardo tenia 30 años
When he left this worldCuando se fue de esta mundo
Full of lifeEstando lleno de vida
It ended in a secondSe le acabo en un segundo
His parents can't console themselvesSus padres no se consuelan
From such deep sorrowDe ese pesar tan profundo

He was unique in his familyEra unico en su familia
He didn't like povertyNo le gusto la pobreza
His parents advised himSus padres le aconsejaban
Don't be foolishNo seas de mala cabeza
He who walks the wrong path ends badlyEl que anda mal mal acaba
You can be surePeudes tener la certeza
Just marriedEstando recien casado
He complained about his wifeRenegaba de su esposa
He had a very pretty girlfriendTenia una novia muy linda
In the city of ReynosaEn la ciudad de reynoza
Besides a mistressAparte de una querida
As if that wasn't enoughPor si fuera poca cosa

Without saying goodbye to anyoneIn despedirse de nadie
One day he crossed the borderUn dia cruzo la frontera
Just to see what it tastes likeNamas pa ver a que sabe
He marries a blondeSe casa con una güera
And completely forgetsY se le olvidio por completo
What he left in his homelandLo que dejo en su tierra
He was lucky in loveTenia suerte en los amores
And never stayed faithfulY con nadien estuvo en grido
He charmed a ChicanaEnamoro a una chicana
Who didn't want to share himQue no quiso compartirlo
And to prevent him from deceiving herY para que no la engañara
She shot him five timesLe disparo cinco tiros
Dove of the NorthPaloma del norte
If you cross the Rio BravoSi cruzan el rio bravo
Tell everyoneDiganle a toda la gente
That in the city of ChicagoQue en la ciudad de chicago
