Lyrics
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 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.

The Cabeceo
