Por la lejana montaña
By the distant mountain
Va cabalgando un jinete
A rider rides
Vaga solito en el mundo
Lazy alone in the world
Y va deseando la muerte
And he wishes for death
Lleva en su pecho una herida
He carries a wound on his chest
Con su alma destrozada
With his soul shattered
Quisiera perder la vida
I would like to lose my life
Y reunirse con su amada
And reunite with his beloved
La quería más que a su vida
He loved her more than his life
Y la perdió para siempre
And he lost it forever.
Por eso lleva una herida
That's why he carries a wound
Por eso busca la muerte
That's why he seeks death
Por eso lleva una herida
That's why he carries a wound
Por eso busca la muerte
That's why he seeks death
Por ese jinete que vaga por el mundo
For that rider who roams the world
Con su guitarra cantando
With his guitar singing
Se pasa noches enteras
Spend whole nights
Hombre y guitarra llorando
Man and guitar crying
A la luz de las estrellas
In the light of the stars
Después se pierde en la noche
Then it gets lost in the night
Y aunque la noche es muy bella
And although the night is very beautiful
Él va pidiéndole a Dios
He is asking God
Que se lo lleve con ella
Let him take it with her
La quería más que a su vida
He loved her more than his life
Y la perdió para siempre
And he lost it forever.
Por eso lleva una herida
That's why he carries a wound
Por eso busca la muerte
That's why he seeks death
Por eso lleva una herida
That's why he carries a wound
Por eso
Therefore
Busca la muerte
Seek death
