retacharonthey sent back / they returned

Retacharon is a colloquial and somewhat informal word that means "they sent back" or "they returned." It's not as common as devolvieron or regresaron, making it more unique and interesting.

In the context of the song, the narrator, after being imprisoned, sings, "Me retacharon pa' atrás" (They sent me back). This implies he was forcibly returned to his home country, adding a layer of intrigue to his journey and experiences.

Get ready to hear a story of resilience and revenge in "El H" by LOS DOS DE TAMAULIPAS! This song introduces us to a character, "El H," who faced a lot of doubt early on. He sings, "Va a haber muchos que en ti no crean / Va a haber gente que va a dudar" [There will be many who don't believe in you / There will be people who will doubt]. Despite others not seeing his potential, he left his home young, heading to the US to try his luck. He worked hard, but it wasn't enough for him; he always wanted more.

El H tells us about making a name for himself, even causing a stir with "Esa famosa Finiquera la pusimos a temblar" [We made that famous Finiquera tremble]. But he trusted the wrong people, which led to him being imprisoned. He describes becoming a "guerrero en esa celda" [warrior in that cell], and how he "salió bravo" [came out fierce], even settling scores with several people. After years, he was sent back to Sonora, where his cousin helped him get back on his feet. He quickly gained fame, becoming known as "El H, primo del pirata" [El H, cousin of the pirate]. And for those who celebrated his downfall? "Les llegó pronto la venganza" [Vengeance soon came for them]. Even though he's gone, he reminds everyone, "Nunca hay que bajar la guardia / Pues tienen que continuar" [Never let your guard down / Because they have to continue]. It's a powerful message about overcoming obstacles and getting even!
