El Herradero

The Rodeo

El Herradero

Oh! How pretty, how lovely¡Ay! Que linda, que rechula
Is the party of my ranchEs la fiesta de mi rancho
With its Chinese mariachis and songsCon sus chinas mariachis y canciones
And those cowboys wearing wide-brimmed hatsY esos charros que traen sombrero ancho

How beautifulQue bonita
That chestnut and bird-catching mareEsa yegua alazana y pajarera
To teach them how to throw a lassoPa' enseñarles a echar una mangana
And ride her and tame herY montarla y quitarle lo matrera

How beautiful is the party of the lowlandsQue bonita es la fiesta del bajío
And oh how lovely its females and sunY ay que lindas sus hembras y sol
Little corner that holds my love oh!Rinconcito que guarda el amor mío ay!
My life, yours is my heartMi vida tuyo es mi corazón

And now is the timeY ahora es cuando
Guys, let's have a good timeValedores a darse un buen quemón
That mare coming from the pastureQue esa yegua que viene del potrero
Is only good for the boss's devilSolo es buena pa'l diablo del patrón
Women should be like all the filliesLas mujeres han de ser como todas las potrancas
That get proud and tame with their ownerQue se engrían y se amansan con su dueño
And can't carry a rider on their backsY no pueden llevar jinete en ancas

How beautiful is the party of the lowlandsQue bonita es la fiesta del bajío
And oh how lovely its females and sunY ay que lindas sus hembras y sol
Little corner that holds my love oh!Rinconcito que guarda el amor mío ¡ay!
My life, yours is my heartMi vida tuyo es mi corazón
