Hoy Platique Con Mi Gallo
Hoy platique con mi gallo
Y me dijo tristemente
Pa' qué me cuidaste tanto
Si hoy me lanzas a la muerte
Pa' qué me cuidaste tanto
Si hoy me lanzas a la muerte
Y yo le dije, mi amigo
Aquí en confianza te digo
Por una maldita apuesta
Quieren acabar conmigo
Por una maldita apuesta
Quieren acabar conmigo
El llanto lleno mis ojos
Senti verguenza al mirarlo
Iba a perder a mi amigo
Por la mitad de un centavo
Iba a perder a mi amigo
Por la mitad de un cemtavo
Mejor me regreso a mi tierra
Me voy llorando de gusto
Allá me espera mi gente
Y a mi gallo su gallera
Allá me espera mi gente
Y a mi gallo su gallera
El gallo sintió de pronto
Que estaba hirbiendo
Su sangre y ya puesta la navaja
Le dijo voy a salvarte
Que ya suelten a ese giro
Tu deuda voy a pagarles
En menos de tres patadas
Acabó con su rival
Pero también aquel gallo
Le hizo una herida mortal
Y ahí juré que a un amigo
No se debe traicionar
Today I Talked With My Rooster
Today I talked with my rooster
And he sadly told me
Why did you take care of me so much
If today you throw me to death
Why did you take care of me so much
If today you throw me to death
And I told him, my friend
Here in confidence I tell you
Because of a damn bet
They want to finish me
Because of a damn bet
They want to finish me
Tears filled my eyes
I felt ashamed looking at him
I was going to lose my friend
For half a penny
I was going to lose my friend
For half a penny
I better go back to my land
I leave crying with joy
My people are waiting for me there
And his cockfighting arena is waiting for my rooster
My people are waiting for me there
And his cockfighting arena is waiting for my rooster
The rooster suddenly felt
That his blood was boiling
And with the knife already set
He said I'm going to save you
Let that rooster go
I will pay your debt
In less than three kicks
He finished off his rival
But also that rooster
Gave him a mortal wound
And there I swore that a friend
Should not be betrayed
