El último atardecer
Los Tigres del Norte
The Last Sunset
On the path of Zapote
by the side of the road
someone witnessed the death
of Francisco and Avelino
the killers wore
green uniforms.
I don't know anything, said Pancho
don't pretend anymore, officer
you didn't come to teach me
you came to kill me
I'll keep the secret
because I'm a trustworthy man.
They were tied up and killed
by order of an officer
I'll wait for you in hell
said Palma Beltrán
Everyone's time comes
and yours will come
settle your debts well
they will be collected there.
On a dark Sunday the thirteenth
almost dusk
a report arrived in La Noria
with very cruel news
Avelino and Pancho Palma
had their last sunset.
There's no patch for the leather
said a crow in its song
Pancho and Avelino
were an example of friendship
men like these are no longer born
nor are they found by planting them.
They were tied up and killed
by order of an officer
I'll wait for you in hell
said Palma Beltrán
Everyone's time comes
and yours will come
settle your debts well
they will be collected there.
