Original text with translation
José Alfredo Jiménez
A la luz de las estrellas
Empuñaba su guitarra
Le cantaba a las botellas:
El alcohol lo apasionaba
José Manuel «El Borrego»
Jiménez de apellidaba
Lo quería mucho su prieta:
Marcelina se llamaba
Cuando se iba de su casa
Ella siempre lo buscaba
Pero él tenía un escondite
Donde nadie lo encontraba
Cuando estaba en las cantinas
No sentía ningún dolor
Por cuatro copas queridas
Dejaba al más grande amor
El borrego no era tonto
Porque siempre se cuidaba
Pero un día que vino Reyna
A invitarlo a la parranda
Cuando llegó Marcelina
José la tenía abrazada
Lo mató por su cariño
Y él ya no le dijo nada
Cuando Reyna y sus amigos
Gritaron «¡Aquí no hay nada!»
Ella se cubrió de llanto
Pero se guardo una bala
Cuando estaba en las cantinas
No sentía ningún dolor
Por cuatro copas queridas
Dejaba al más grande amor
in the light of the stars
She was holding her guitar
She sang to the bottles:
He was passionate about alcohol
Jose Manuel "El Borrego"
Jiménez de surnamed
He loved his cousin very much:
Marcelina was called
when she left home
she was always looking for him
But he had a hiding place
where no one found
When he was in the cantinas
He didn't feel any pain
For four drinks dear
He left the greatest love
The sheep was not stupid
Because he always took care of himself
But one day Reyna came
To invite him to the party
When did Marceline arrive?
José had her in his arms
She killed him for his love
And he didn't say anything to her anymore
When Reyna and her friends
They shouted “There is nothing here!”
She covered herself with tears
But she saved a bullet
When he was in the cantinas
He didn't feel any pain
For four drinks dear
I left the greatest love
