Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Malilla by Alfredo Olivas from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Ahí va una aventada
Here goes a winnowed
Porque esta pedida
Why this request
No pongan cuidado
Don't be careful
Aquellos que no saben
Those who don't know
Jugar La Malilla
Play the Malilla
Tanto juego, tanto oro, tanta espada
So much play, so much gold, so much sword
Tantas ganas de vivir la vida
So much desire to live life
Tanta puntería, no sirvió de nada
So much aim, it was useless
No hay fierro que pegue
There is no iron that sticks
Donde no hay un blanco
Where there is no target
Ni triunfo que mate emboscadas
No triumph that kills ambushes
Ahí les va un arrastre
There goes a drag
Quédensela firme
Stay firm
Tanta camiseta
So much t-shirt
Tanto jalar la carreta
So much pulling the cart
De la basa no quise irme
I didn't want to leave the base
Eso pasa, cuando no estas, en el juego
That happens, when you're not, in the game
Y al final pudo más un mitote
And in the end he could more a myth
Un perico y un bote, que el rey y el caballo
A parakeet and a boat, than the king and the horse
Lo hecho esta hecho
What is done is done
Ya están satisfechos
They are already satisfied
No los va a partir el rayo
Lightning is not going to break them
Adiós compa 20
Goodbye compa 20
Usted que fue hombre
You who were a man
Vea por la manada
See for the herd
También que por nada
Also for nothing
Se manche mi nombre
My name is stained
Y a los que no, me quisieron, hoy festejen
And to those who did not, they loved me, today celebrate
Pero a todos nos llega la hora
But it's time for all of us
Y acá por Sonora, la vida no vale
And here in Sonora, life is not worth
Como en Guanajuato, no le encime a un 4
As in Guanajuato, do not top a 4
Adiós mi Heroica Nogales
Farewell my Heroic Nogales
