Misa de Cuerpo Presente

They're praying at the funeral mass in the churchMisa de cuerpo presente están rezando en la iglesia
For the one who got shot in the back, always killed in self-defenseAl que murió por la espalda que siempre mató en defensa
He didn't listen to his mother when she said: Don't goNo quiso oír a su madre cuando le dijo: No vayas
They respected your forehead, but they're coming for your backTe han respetado la frente, pero te buscan la espalda

The four was already laid out on the road to that danceYa estaba el cuatro tendido en el camino a aquel baile
He fell into the worst ambush, just like his mother warnedCayó en la peor emboscada como le dijo su madre
When they brought the body, his mother said right awayCuando llevaron el cuerpo su madre dijo al momento
Leave me alone with my son, then she locked the door tightDéjenme sola con mi hijo y luego cerró por dentro

Those who peeked in said his mother was so braveDicen los que asomaron que su madre muy valiente
She whipped the body, they say, for being disobedientLe dio de azotes al cuerpo dizque por desobediente
They also say that the eyes of that lifeless bodyTambién dicen que los ojos de aquel cuerpo sin sentido
Cried thick tears as if he were still aliveLloraban lágrimas gruesas como si estuviera vivo

They say with his gun, she blessed him many timesDicen que con su pistola lo santiguo muchas veces
Then filled it with blood and swore to avenge his deathLuego la llenó de sangre y juró vengar su muerte
No wonder she was brave, she inherited that from her motherCon razón era valiente en eso heredó a su madre
She didn't shed a tear, just started praying for himElla no derramó llanto solo se puso a rezarle
