Voy a cantarles un corrido a los presentes
I'm going to sing a corrido to those present
Que le compuse a Juan Armenta allá en los llanos
That I composed for Juan Armenta there in the plains
Fue pistolero y tuvo fama de valiente
He was a gunman and had a reputation for bravery
Y de un balazo lo mató su medio hermano
And his half brother killed him with a bullet
El provocó y apresuró aquel incidente
He provoked and hastened that incident
Para arrancarse de su pecho un desengaño
To tear from his chest a disappointment
Juan quiso hacer de su cuñada su querencia
Juan wanted to make his sister-in-law his favorite
Porque pensó que aquella dama lo deseaba
Because he thought that lady wanted him
Pero tan solo lo trataba con decencia
But only she treated him decently
Porque a su esposo lo quería y lo respetaba
Because she loved her husband and she respected him
Y sin pensar y sin medir las consecuencias
And without thinking and without measuring the consequences
En un arranque de locura la raptaba
In a fit of madness she kidnapped her
Ya habían llegado a la cabaña abandonada
They had already reached the abandoned cabin
Ella llevaba su vestido hecho pedazos
She wore her dress to pieces
Una mujer que había nacido pa ser honrada
A woman who was born to be honored
No tiene miedo ni al puñal, ni a los balazos
She is not afraid of the dagger or the bullets
A su cuñado se lo decía y se lo gritaba
He told his brother-in-law and yelled at him
Primero muerta que caer entre tus brazos
First dead than falling into your arms
Juan era un hombre acostumbrado a las batallas
Juan was a man accustomed to battles
De los Armenta fue solo un hijo bastardo
Of the Armentas he was only a bastard son
Planeó su muerte para ya no ser canalla
He planned her death to no longer be a scoundrel
Al darse cuenta que su acción fue de un villano
Realizing that his action was that of a villain
Vació el revólver y arrojó todas las balas
He emptied the revolver and threw out all the bullets
Y así esperó hasta la llegada de su hermano
And so he waited until his brother's arrival
Llega de pronto a la cabaña el ofendido
The offended man suddenly arrives at the cabin
Juan saca el arma provocando la pelea
Juan pulls out the gun causing the fight
Luego se escucha detonar un solo tiro
Then a single shot is heard
Y un cuerpo cae para reunirse con la tierra
And a body falls to meet the earth
Y aquí termino de cantar este corrido
And here I finish singing this corrido
Que llevo siempre por montañas y praderas
That I always carry through mountains and meadows
