Pobre Juan [English translation]

John was launched marching north

Was looking for a decent life

Across Mexico by valleys and mountains

He was full of faith Juan

The story is that John was going to marry

With Maria pregnant

But he did not have a penny

Not a nail to give

But this Juan was very determined

And he came to the border with all the edge

He connected with the mere couple of coyotes

And the story told

Look, I want to cross and

A San Diego or Chicago

Tell me what I do

What price I pay

Juan never returned

In line remained

Poor Juan

Or killed migrates

Or the desert buried

Poor Juan, oh

Juan teaches the coyote a photo of Mary

With who would marry

He promised that he would return

To form a household

But Juan was betrayed coyote

Leaving it to oblivion

Three bullets thundered Juan

Poor Juan

He did not return

No, oh

Juan never returned

In line remained

Poor Juan

Or killed migrates

Or the desert buried

Poor Juan

And Mary went to look

And she never found

Disappeared, oh
