El Arreo
Vaca, vaca, vaca
Toro, toro, toro
La luz de la Luna llena
Corre por todo el potrero
La van siguiendo las nubes
Con gotitas de aguacero
Canto el cenzontle llanero
Perdido en el matorral
Y huyó el coyote matrero
Espantado del corral
Vaca, vaca, vaca
Arre-lante, vaca pinta
No te salgas del camino
Pa' mí que traes compromiso
Con algún toro ladino
Luna grande, Luna llena
Eres medalla de plata
Quisiera verte prendida
En el cuello de mi chata
Toro, toro, toro, toro
El toro de mi compadre
Trae el cuero traserra'o
Ay que buena esta mi ahijada
Pa'que la habré bautiza'o
Desde aquí ya se divisan
Las casitas del trigal
Y una ventana chiquita
Donde quero platicar
Vaca, vaca, vaca
Toro, toro, toro
The Herd
Cow, cow, cow
Bull, bull, bull
The light of the full moon
Runs through the entire pasture
The clouds are following it
With little drops of rain
The plains mockingbird sings
Lost in the thicket
And the sly coyote fled
Scared from the pen
Cow, cow, cow
Come on, painted cow
Don't stray from the path
I think you have a commitment
With some cunning bull
Big moon, full moon
You are a silver medal
I wish to see you hanging
Around my sweetheart's neck
Bull, bull, bull, bull
My buddy's bull
Has the hide on its back
Oh, how good my goddaughter looks
Why did I baptize her?
From here you can already see
The little houses of the wheat field
And a tiny window
Where I want to chat
Cow, cow, cow
Bull, bull, bull
