On January 7th
El día 7 de enero
I have it present
Presente lo tengo yo
A real man died
Murió un hombre verdadero
A coward killed him
Un cobarde lo mató
Honorius, that was his name
Honorio, así se llamaba
And Farías, his last name
Y Farías, su apellido
Everyone who sought him
Todo aquel que lo buscaba
He was well favored
Era bien favorecido
When he arrived in Reynosa
Cuando a Reynosa llegó
He came from Matamoros
De Matamoros se vino
He killed two bandits
A dos bandidos mató
In defense of a friend
En defensa de un amigo
In the Central neighborhood
En el barrio del Central
Famous for bad luck
Famoso por mala suerte
His fateful day came
Le tocó su día fatal
Finding death
Encontrándose la muerte
The coward of Zambrano
El cobarde de Zambrano
I was waiting for him at the Central
En el Central lo esperaba
Got the opportunity
Logró la oportunidad
While I was careless
Mientras descuidado estaba
Raimundo said goodbye to him
Raimundo lo despedía
Wishing you good luck
Deseándole buena suerte
When Mauro approached
Cuando Mauro se acercó
He killed him from behind
Por de espalda le dio muerte
Now with this I say goodbye.
Ya con esta me despido
I'm done singing.
Ya terminé de cantar
The corrido of Farías
El corrido de Farías
That he was a very upright man
Que fue un hombre muy cabal
