A Joaquín Murieta

With his wild ponchoCon el poncho embravecido
and his shattered hearty el corazón destrozado
our bandit gallopsgalopa nuestro bandido
killing evil gringos.matando gringos malvados.

He gallops with a red ponchoGalopa con poncho rojo
and on his horse with wingsy en su caballo con alas
and wherever he sets his eye,y allí donde pone el ojo,
my life, he sets the bullet.mi vida, pone la bala.

Down this street they camePor esta calle llegaron
those daring men.esos hombres atrevidos.
They met JoaquínSe encontraron con Joaquín
and Joaquín met his fate.y Joaquín con su destino.
