Linda Ronstadt "El Camino" lyrics

Translation to:en

El Camino

Por el quebrado caminoQue va la sierra huastecaSe oye cantar un jineteQue monta una yegua prieta

Al acompasado troteDe la jaca tan inquietaBrota el agudo falseteCon que el jinete se alegraAy la la laAy la la la

De lejos vengo yo a verteA conseguir lo que quieroAunque la vida me cueste

Así el polvo en el caminoEnvuelve jinete y yeguaHasta que los dos se pierdenEntre tupida arboleda

Después ya solo se escuchaPor la lejana veredaEl falsete del huastecoQue al cantarAsí se expresaAy la la laAy la la la

De lejos vengo yo a verteA conseguir lo que quieroAunque la vida me cueste

The Road

Along the broken roadThat goes along the Huasteca mountainsA horseman is heard singingWho is mounted on a dark mare

Accompanied by the trotOf his pony so restlessRises the high falsettoWith which the horseman rejoicesAy la la laAy la la la

From afar I come to see youTo get what I desire soAlthough it may cost me my life

In this way the dust in the roadEnvelops horse and riderUntil the two lose themselvesIn a thick grove

Later on all that is heardFrom the distant pathIs the falsetto of the HuastecanWho in songThus expresses himselfAy la la laAy la la la

From afar I come to see youTo get what I desire soAlthough it may cost me my life
