Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Cruz Negra by Tito Torbellino Jr from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
De los corridones, dice más o menos
Of the corridones, he says more or less
Barba Negra con mi compa Tito Jr.
Barba Negra with my friend Tito Jr.
Echele viejon, dice
Throw him old man, he says
El rojo alanta mi rostro
The red brightens my face
Humos que lumbran mis ojos
Smoke that illuminates my eyes
Es el efecto de mi cigarro
It's the effect of my cigarette
Miro paisajes distorcianado
I look at distorted landscapes
Y en mi Camaro super cargado
And in my supercharged Camaro
Me miran ser sospechoso
They look at me being suspicious
Un semblante peligroso
a dangerous countenance
La 5-7, mano en corto
The 5-7, short hand
Escupe la muerte, al estilo del trombon
Spit death, trombone style
Con ese ruidito lueguito me entono
With that little noise, I tuned in
Las apariencias engañan
Looks are deceiving
Cuídense del agua mansa
beware of still water
No me revuelvo en lodo pariente
I do not wallow in relative mud
No somos puercos, no somos corrientes
We are not pigs, we are not ordinary
Los chapulines los trae en caliente
The grasshoppers bring them hot
Si el rió suena trae piedras
If the river sounds it brings stones
Si no hay respeto, hay ofensa
If there is no respect, there is offense
Se me atraviesan, rugen el metralleta
They cross me, the submachine gun roars
Mi cara y mi nombre, toneladas pesan
My face and my name, tons weigh
Surge el efeto la barbona negra
The effect of the black beard arises
Eso son los compas del grupo Legado 7
That's the compas of the Legacy 7 group
Jefe, compañeros y amigos
Boss, colleagues and friends
El legado el guerito
The legacy the guerito
No dejaremos caer el trabajo
We won't drop the job
La misma gente sigue cooperando
The same people keep cooperating
El Changu y Lui, y todos los muchachos
Changu and Lui, and all the boys
Mantengo este recorrido
I keep this tour
No me desvió del camino
Didn't stray me from the path
Las traiciones se pagan con la muerte
Betrayals are paid with death
La muerte aplaza más no se detiene
Death postpones but does not stop
Y ese amiguito sabe que las debe
And that little friend knows that he owes them
Ya con esta me despido
With this I say goodbye
Forjandome uno de glifo
forging myself one of glyph
Lumbre al cigarro, le jalo un suspiro
Light the cigarette, I draw a sigh
Me pierdo en el lumbre, nos vemos amigo
I get lost in the fire, see you friend
Eso es historia, no solo un corrido
That's history, not just a corrido
Se queda el recuerdo mientras yo este vivo
The memory remains as long as I am alive
