El Jinete Lyrics in English Miguel Aceves Mejia
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song El Jinete by Miguel Aceves Mejia from Spanish to English.
Por la lejana montaña
Through the distant mountain
Va cabalgando un jinete
A rider is riding
Vaga solito en el mundo
Wandering alone in the world
Y va deseando la muerte
And wishing for death
Lleva en su pecho una herida
He carries a wound in his chest
Va con su alma destrozada
He goes with his soul shattered
Quisiera perder la vida
He wishes to lose his life
Y reunirse con su amada
And be reunited with his beloved
La quería mas que a su vida
He loved her more than his own life
Y la perdió para siempre
And lost her forever
Por eso lleva una herida
That's why he carries a wound
Por eso busca la muerte
That's why he seeks death
Con su guitarra cantando
With his guitar singing
Se pasa noches enteras
He spends 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 he gets lost in the night
Y aunque la noche es muy bella
And though the night is very beautiful
El va pidiéndole a Dios
He asks God
Que se lo lleve con ella
To take him with her
La quería mas que a su vida
He loved her more than his own life
Y la perdió para siempre
And lost her forever
Por eso lleva una herida
That's why he carries a wound
Por eso busca la muerte
That's why he seeks death
