Lyrics

Español

El encuentro fue brutal Relampaguea el acero, Del puñal en su brillar Hundiéndose certero. Ojos profundos Sin lamento y en silencio, Sigue el duelo frente a frente Hasta la muerte. Mal herido ya está Sin aflojar un paso, El acero ensangrentao Y en cada rostro un tajo. Se siente un grito de dolor Y un guapo deja de pelear, Un pecho abierto Hundido está el puñal.

English · machine translation

The encounter was brutal Steel flashes, Of the dagger in its gleam Sinking certain. Deep eyes Without lamentation and in silence, Follows the duel face to face Until death. Badly wounded already Without loosening a step, The bloody steel And in each face a slash. A cry of pain is felt And a handsome man stops fighting, An open chest Sinking is the dagger.
