Translation

Por la lejana montaña

Through the distant mountain

Va cabalgando un jinete

A rider is galloping

Vaga solito en el mundo

He wanders alone in the world

Y va deseando la muerte

And desires 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 reunite with his beloved


La quería más que a su vida

He loved her more than his 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 entire 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 although the night is very beautiful

Él va pídiéndole a Dios

He begs God

Que se lo lleve con ella

To take him with her


La quería más que a su vida

He loved her more than his 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
