Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Generoso Y Carmelita by Los Dos Carnales from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Voy a empezar con este corrido
I'm going to start with this corrido
Corriendo el año 57
Running the year 57
En un pueblito de 'llega y vete'
In a small town of 'come and go'
Llegó a ese pueblo un desconocido
A stranger arrived in that town
Muy bien plantado, y con camioneta
Very well planted, and with pickup truck
Mas iba armado de metralleta
But he was armed with a submachine gun.
Pidió la novia, el muy atrevido
He asked for the bride, the very daring
Le respondieron en corto plazo
They responded to him in the short term
Y el 'no', para él, fue como un balazo
And the 'no', for him, was like a bullet.
Cómo hay muchachos en todo México
How there are guys all over Mexico
Que, sin dudarlo, cuando son pollos
That, without hesitation, when they are chickens
Al matrimonio le son alérgicos
Marriage is allergic
Y ya de viejos, quieren pimpollos
And as old men, they want buds
Ya por la noche andaba tomado
Already at night I was drunk
Y amenazó con matar a varios
And he threatened to kill several
Mas le madrugaron los contrarios
But the opponents got up early
Con soldados
With soldiers
Hoy está preso en Ciudad Victoria
Today he is imprisoned in Ciudad Victoria
Porque le achacaron varias muertes
Because they blamed him for several deaths
Tendría la culpa la mala suerte
Bad luck would be to blame
De su historia
From its history
Levanta el vuelo, blanca palomita
Take flight, white popcorn
Y allá en el cielo escribe el corrido
And there in heaven write the corrido
De Generoso y de Carmelita
Generous and Carmelite
Para que encuentren la paz y olvido
That they may find peace and oblivion
