Mario Portillo Lyrics in English Chalino Sanchez , Los Amables Del Norte
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Mario Portillo by Chalino Sanchez from Spanish to English.
Aya en el rancho del Álamo
Over at the Álamo ranch
Cercas de Baldiíta Guato
Near Baldiíta, Guato
Ay un pequeño panteón
There's a small graveyard
A las orillas del rió
On the river's edge
Donde descansan los restos
Where the remains rest
Del joven Mario Portillo
Of the young Mario Portillo
A ese panteón de seguido
To that graveyard again and again
Muy tiste se ve llegar
You can see her arrive so sad
A una muchacha de negro
A girl in black
Que flores le va llevar
That is going to take him flowers
Y llora al pie de su tumba
And she cries at the foot of his grave
Sin poderse consolar
Without being able to console herself
De Los Ángeles salieron
From Los Angeles they left
El y su novia querida
He and his beloved girlfriend
Venían de comprar las donas
They were coming from buying donuts
Muy pronto se casarían
Very soon they would marry
Pero al llegar a Oregon
But on reaching Oregon
El joven perdió la vida
The young man lost his life
El 19 de mayo
On May 19th
20 años completaba
He was turning twenty
El 29 de junio
On June 29th
La boda estaba notada
The wedding was scheduled
Más no sabia que la muerte
But he didn't know that death
En Sonora lo esperaba
Was waiting for him in Sonora
Fue en el año 85
It was in the year '85
El 31 de mayo
On May 31st
A el siempre le gusto
He always liked
Correr muy recio en su carro
To drive very fast in his car
Pero una pesada pipa
But a heavy tanker truck
El paso le avía serrado
Had cut his way off
Adiós mi novia querida
Goodbye, my darling girlfriend
Ay te quedaras muy triste
Oh, you'll stay very sad
Siempre me recordaras
You'll always remember me
Por lo mucho que te quise
For how much I loved you
Por el tiempo inolvidable
For the unforgettable time
Que fuimos los dos felices
That we both were happy.......
