A los amigos que an quedado en el camino

To the friends who have stayed on the path

en las campañas por las balas abatidos

in the battles, fallen by bullets

se les respeta con respeto y con cariño

they are respected with respect and affection

en la memoria de su gente viviran.

Tanta aventura, tanto terreno avanzado

So much adventure, so much conquered land

hombres de talla nunca nunca se rajaron

men of stature never, never backed down

y solo en venja solo podian ser superados

and only in revenge could they be surpassed

por que el valiente siempre muere a traicion.

because the brave always die betrayed.


Ahora las calles se ven cubiertas de lodo

Now the streets are covered in mud

por tanta sangre mezclada con polvo

by so much blood mixed with dust

la madre llora al que fuera su tesoro

y en los panteones la banda se oie sonar.

and in the cemeteries, the band is heard playing.


Contra el gobierno sin complejo se enfrentaban

a los rivales les llovieron tantas balas

cualquier encargo sin problema realizaban

siempre hace falta su aguerrida voluntad.

Profecionales y expertos con las armas

Professionals and experts with weapons

muchos de ellos conoci desde la infancia

many of them I knew since childhood

soldados recios, compañeros de parranda

tough soldiers, companions in revelry

me parte el alma de tan solo recordar.

it breaks my heart just to remember.


A los amigos adios adios hermanos de armas

To the friends, farewell, farewell, brothers in arms

en mi recuerdo llevare tantas azañas

in my memory, I will carry so many exploits

no los olvido y aun guardo la esperanza

I don't forget them, and I still hold hope

de un dia encontrarnos cuando llegue mi final.

of one day meeting when my end comes.
