De verdad cómo hace falta Joaquín
Really, how we need Joaquín
Y aunque no está aquí, bien firme el legado
And although it is not here, the legacy is firm
Hijos, ya no me pude despedir
Children, I couldn't say goodbye anymore
Pero desde aquí les mando un abrazo
But from here I send you a hug
Esta no la vi venir, mas ya estoy aquí
I didn't see this one coming, but I'm already here
Y ahorita para dónde me hago
And now where do I go?
Pero la vida es así
But life is like that
Les mando decir que se anden con cuidado
I'm telling you to be careful
Badiraguato la sierra donde creciera
Badiraguato the mountain range where it grew
En su rancho La Tuna
At his ranch La Tuna
Caminos entre veredas, tenía sus cuevas
Paths between paths, had their caves
Hechas a su estatura
Made to your height
Puente Grande fue el lugar
Puente Grande was the place
Cómo olvidar esa famosa fuga
How to forget that famous escape
Y varios años atrás por quererlo matar
And several years ago for wanting to kill him
Se llevaron un cura
They took a priest
Cuando el viejo se enfiestaba
When the old man had a party
Siempre fajada la 701
The 701 is always in trouble
Buen ritmo pa' la bailada
Good rhythm for dancing
Buen paso daba con una pelo rubio
Good step with blonde hair
Bastante seguridad por todo el lugar
Pretty security throughout the place
Relajado y seguro
Relaxed and safe
Al mando del Cholo Iván
Under the command of Cholo Iván
Puro exmilitar, más blindado que un muro
Pure ex-military, more armored than a wall
Alegre y enamorado por varios ranchos
Happy and in love with various ranches
Dejó varias semillas
left several seeds
El mayor es Archivaldo, junto a su hermano
The oldest is Archivaldo, along with his brother
Y los de Jesús María
And those of Jesus Mary
Uno que otro más por ahí sin mencionar
One or another more out there without mentioning
Pero igual son familia
But they are still family
Edgar me los va a cuidar
Edgar is going to take care of them for me
Le he de rezar y un abrazo hasta arriba
I have to pray to him and give him a hug
Amistades de grandeza y pa' las guerras
Friendships of greatness and for wars
Muy pocos me llegaron
Very few reached me
Compadres por donde quiera
Compadres wherever you want
Pero en mi ausencia uno cambió de bando
But in my absence one changed sides
Un agente federal bastó nomás
One federal agent was enough
Pa' estar aquí encerrado
To be locked up here
Por no querer arreglar, mi Cholo Iván
For not wanting to fix, my Cholo Iván
Lo hubieras fusilado
you would have shot him
Ya con esta me despido de mis amigos
With this I say goodbye to my friends
De mi rancho y mi madre
From my ranch and my mother
Toquen corridos bonitos, de esos viejitos
Play beautiful corridos, one of those old ones
Como el del M Grande
Like the M Grande
