La Bala [English translation]

The pistol looked fixedly down on him

Cloaked in the shiny chrome of its poison

A sudden shot

Penetrated every particle of the air and later fell

The first drop is spilled, and now by the hundreds [x3]

By the hundreds

Death looked at his defiant form

With blood between his teeth

And a prevailing darkness

The bullet between so much suspended permanently

Dancing a death, revolving upon itself

The meaning of life is lost

While a young man suffers before the desire of conquered ground

On bended knee, his kiss turns slowly from red to ice

Beloved angels of duty have been lost by chaos

Who will return this skin

The mother pleads to the colonel

Death is a carousel

It was an Eden as he goes and they see

A cruel, final judgment

The angel pleads to the colonel

Boom, boom, boom, boom

Boom, boom, boom, boom

Boom, boom, boom, boom

Boom

Boom

His stare remained frozen by the sudden, pulsing sound that shot him dead

Man down, bled out, not breathing, left pale

His life fails

The first drop is spilled, now by the hundreds [x3]

By the hundreds

That body without life was stunned Maria's son

Fallen to the floor, her face distorted into a scream

It remained a solo hum signifying (murder)

The hour of the gods marked by the kiss

Of a mother's goodbye lost in her grief

It causes the heavens to rain tears in the desert

And until his death remained quiet out of respect

Beloved angels of duty have been lost by chaos

Who will return this skin

The mother pleads to the colonel

Death is a carousel

It was an Eden as he goes and they see

The cruel, final judgment

The angel pleads to the colonel

Boom, boom, boom, boom

Boom, boom, boom, boom

Boom, boom, boom, boom

Boom, boom, boom, boom

Shots sound, deaths rise, powder burns, prakapampam [x4]
