Un domingo fue por cierto
One Sunday it was by the way
Un día de mis desdenes
One day of my scorn
Murió Valente Quintero
Valente Quintero died
Y el Mayor Martin Elenes
And Major Martin Elenes
Anda Valente tomando
Go Valente drinking
Muy alegre echando trago
Very happy pouring drink
Echándole la indirecta
dropping the hint
A todos los de Santiago
To all of Santiago
Al llegar a la ramada
Arriving at the ramada
El mayor estaba tomando
The older one was drinking
La música era de viento
The music was windy
La que le estaba tocando
The one that was touching him
Cuando llego a la ramada
When I get to the ramada
Le mando tocar El Toro
I command him to play El Toro
Si el mayor paga con plata
If the eldest pays with money
Yo se los pago con oro

Salió el Mayor de su casa
The Major left his house
Bastante muy disgustado

Tú lo que tienes Valente
You what you have Valente
Que eres hombre ocasionado

Y Valente le contesta
And Valente answers
Yo no soy ocasionado

Con esta 45 no respeto

Se agarraron de la mano

Para darse de balazos

Yo no me rindo Mayor

Aunque me haga mil pedazos

Valente cayó primero

Dándole cuenta al creador

Entre la vida y la muerte

Le pego un tiro al mayor

Vuelva, vuelva palomita
Come back, come back dove
Y si no vuelvas detente
And if you don't come back stop
Estas son las mañanitas del Mayor
