Below, I translated the lyrics of the song El Sinaloense by Banda El Recodo from Spanish to English.
Desde Navolato vengo dicen que nací en el Roble
From Navolato I come they say that I was born in El Roble
Me dicen que soy arriero por que le chiflo y se para
They tell me I'm a muleteer because I don't love him and he stops
Si les aviento el sombrero ya verán como repara
If I throw my hat at them, they'll see how it repairs
Ay, mamá por Dios
Oh, mama for God's sake
Por Dios, qué borracho vengo
For God's sake, I'm so drunk
Que me siga la tambora
Let the drum follow me
Que me toquen el 'Quelite'
That they touch me the 'Quelite'
Después el 'Niño Perdido'
Then the 'Lost Boy'
Y por ultimo el 'Torito' pa' que vean como le brinco
And finally the 'Torito' so that they can see how he jumped
Ay, mamá por Dios
Oh, mama for God's sake
Señoras, señores, muy amables
Ladies, gentlemen, very kind
A nombre de la Banda el Recodo
On behalf of the El Recodo Band
Muchísimas gracias
Thank you so much
Soy del mero Sinaloa, donde se rompen las olas
I'm from Sinaloa, where the waves break
Y busco una que ande sola, y que no tenga marido
And I look for one who walks alone, and who doesn't have a husband
Pa' no estar comprometido cuando resulte la boda
So I won't be engaged when the wedding turns out
Ay, mamá por Dios
Oh, mama for God's sake
Por Dios, qué borracho vengo
For God's sake, I'm so drunk
Que me siga la tambora
Let the drum follow me
Que me toquen el 'Quelite'
That they touch me the 'Quelite'
Después el 'Niño Perdido'
Then the 'Lost Boy'
Y por ultimo el 'Torito' pa' que vean como le brinco
And finally the 'Torito' so that they can see how he jumped
