Translation
Ya cumplieron la consigna,
They have fulfilled the assignment,
escuchen lo que les digo,
listen to what I tell you,
no tengo cuentas pendientes pero ya la traen conmigo,
I don't have pending accounts, but they already have it out for me,
les dijo Iván Archivaldo... Cuando estaba detenido....
Ivan Archivaldo told them... When he was detained....
Yo que ustedes respetaba
If I were you, I would respect
al cachorro de un valiente si al principio era muy fácil,
the cub of a brave man if at first it was very easy,
hoy se torno diferente,
today it turned out different,
a ver a donde se quedan... esos que son influyentes...
let's see where they stay... those who are influential...
Me fabricaron delitos,
They fabricated crimes against me,
aguanto por que soy hombre,
I endure because I am a man,
la herencia es mi apellido ay les doy mis pormenores,
inheritance is my last name, I'll give you my details,
las reglas ya están pintadas... Por un señor de señores....
the rules are already set... by a lord of lords....
Ahí va un dicho de mi tierra
Here goes a saying from my land
pa' gente de alto criterio,
for people of high criteria,
"No le busquen no le muevan,
"Don't look for him, don't move him,
que se aparece Juan Diego",
because Juan Diego appears,"
ai avente la bollitaaa, a ver quien corre primero......
throw the bollitaaa, let's see who runs first......
(y ahí le va un saludo pa' toda mi gente de Culiacan y no
(And here's a greeting to all my people from Culiacan and don't
se me awite pariente)
get upset, relative)
Me retienen por que pueden,
They detain me because they can,
no por que deban hacerlo,
not because they should,
ahí escuche los rumores que andan gastando los cuernos,
I heard the rumors that they're wearing out their horns,
y que hay gente que ni duerme...... que de morir tiene miedo....
and that there are people who don't sleep... who are afraid to die....
No ando buscando culpables,
I'm not looking for culprits,
esos ya están condenados,
those are already condemned,
en las cuentas de mi padre ahí no existen los fallos,
in my father's accounts, there are no mistakes,
los que agarraron el visne... ya se mancharon las manos....
those who caught the visne... have already stained their hands....
La ruleta de la suerte,
The roulette of luck,
el azar es preferido aunque soy pájaro en jaula,
chance is preferred although I'm a bird in a cage,
pronto saldré de este nido,
I'll soon leave this nest,
mi sangre no es para el cielo... creo que eso es ya conocido...
my blood is not for heaven... I think that's already known....
Ahí va un dicho de mi tierra
Here goes a saying from my land
pa' gente de alto criterio,
for people of high criteria,
"No le busquen no le muevan,
"Don't look for him, don't move him,
que se aparece Juan Diego",
because Juan Diego appears,"
ai avente la bollitaaa, a ver quien corre primero
throw the bollitaaa, let's see who runs first
