Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Blas by Eden Muñoz from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Apenas daba mis pasos
I hardly took my steps
Cuando ya andaba pescando con mi padre
When I was already fishing with my father
Para el plato de comida calientita
For the hot plate
Y para poder llevarle a mis carnales
And to be able to take you to my carnal
El sol estaba muy fuerte
the sun was very strong
Que un día decidí enlistarme en la marina
That one day I decided to enlist in the navy
Siempre tuve el sueño de ser capitán
I always had the dream of being a captain
Y a mi viejo poder regalar la dicha
And to my old power to give happiness
Pero a lo bueno no llegó
But it didn't come to the good
Porque se ocupa mucho tiempo y sacrificio
Because it takes a lot of time and sacrifice
Tiré el timón con rumbo pa Guadalajara
I threw the rudder towards Guadalajara
Alguien me dijo venga aquí hay un negocito
Someone told me come here there is a little business
Y cómo decirle que no
And how to say no
Si pa todo se ocupa el maldito dinero
If the damn money takes care of everything
Y esas aguas grandes que bien conocía
And those great waters that I knew well
Las reclamé porque mi padre dijo que era el dueño
I claimed them because my father said that he was the owner
A mí me llamaban Blas
They called me Blas
A mí me llamaban Blas
They called me Blas
Y este es su compa
And this is your compa
Aquel lunes con honores
That monday with honors
Cuando sentí lo que es cargar a mi bandera
When I felt what it is to carry my flag
Y aunque siempre pensé en servirle a mi patria
And although I always thought of serving my country
Pero ya ven que con el hambre no se juega
But you see that you don't play with hunger
Y basta de arrepentimientos
And enough of the regrets
Que aquí los éxitos son para los que estudian
That here the successes are for those who study
Nunca miré aquel pájaro de acero
I never looked at that steel bird
Que se acercaba a nuestras lanchas muy aprisa
That was approaching our boats very quickly
Y de pronto barcos grises
And suddenly gray ships
Se aproximaban rápido a los dos costados
They were fast approaching from both sides.
Viva México grité con rifle en mano
Viva México I shouted with rifle in hand
Con el honor que en la marina me enseñaron
With the honor that the navy taught me
Y entre las nubes de polvo
And among the clouds of dust
Balas de honor hicieron pedazos mi cuerpo
Bullets of honor tore my body to pieces
No me di cuenta que me fui hundiendo en el agua
I didn't realize that I was sinking in the water
Y ahí se acabaron toditititos mis sueños
And there all my dreams ended
Y a mí me llamaban Blas
And they called me Blas
A mí me llamaban Blas
They called me Blas
