La Suma Lyrics English Translation by Javier Rosas Y Su Artillería Pesada | Lupe Borbon Y Su Blindaje 7
José Guadalupe Borbón describes a wild night at a secret mountain ranch near the border. The lyrics mention a leader celebrating his birthday, surrounded by bonfires, women, and luxury. One line translates to ‘We’re running at a million percent,’ highlighting the high-energy party.
Andamos Al Mil Por Millón Decía Un Viejón En La Madrugada“We’re running at a million percent,” said an ‘experienced leader’ in the early morning.
Compita No Aguanto Lo A Gusto Ahorita Ni El Sueño Me Baja La Viada“My friend, I’m feeling so good right now that even sleep won’t slow me down.”
Porque Ando Bien Loco Y Bien AmanecidoSince I’m feeling wild and I’ve stayed up until dawn,
Me Agrada El Tono Muy Buenos CorridosI’m really enjoying the rhythm of these great ‘corridos’ ballads.
Muy Bueno Estaba El Ambiente Los Plebes Bailaban En Una PalapaThe atmosphere was incredible, as the ‘young men’ danced under a ‘thatched-roof hut’.
Por Los Radios Murmuraban Los Puntos Al Cien Todos ReportabanThe ‘lookouts’ were whispering over the radios, reporting that everything was perfect.
Había Alegría Y Muy Buena ArmoníaThere was joy and a sense of perfect harmony,
La Noche Llegaba Y Amanecíaas the night ended and the sun began to rise.
El Hielo No Se Ocupaba Para Las Tecates Para La Buchanan’sIce wasn’t even necessary for the beers or the ‘premium scotch’.
El Frío Era Exagerado Y Solo Con Fogatas Bien Se DisfrutabaThe cold was extreme, and we could only enjoy ourselves around the bonfires.
Había Mujeres Al Por MayorThere were plenty of women everywhere,
Rolaba El P#rico De Lo Mejorand the finest ‘wh#te powder’ was being passed around.
Era Una N#rcofiesta Todo Muy Privado Y Pocos InvitadosIt was an ‘underworld party’, very private with only a few invited guests.
En Un Rancho Chacaloso Allá En La Sierra Cerca ‘E La FronteraAt a ‘rugged ranch’ up in the mountains, right near the border.
Pues Era Cumpleaños De Un ViejónIt was the birthday of an ‘experienced leader’,
Que Es Gente Nueva De Navo Yorkwho’s part of the ‘new generation’ from ‘Navojoa’.
Había Gente Del Gobierno Vestían De Civiles Y DesarmadosThere were government officials there, dressed in civilian clothes and unarmed.
Perímetros A La Redonda Estaban Los Puntos Muy Bien UbicadosThe ‘lookouts’ were perfectly positioned all throughout the surrounding perimeter.
Hasta Un Presidente Ahí Se EncontrabaEven a high-ranking official was at the gathering,
Y Con El Viejón Seguido Brindabafrequently raising his glass to toast with the ‘leader’.
Se Miraba El Festejado Muy Bien Relajado Y Vestía De NegroThe guest of honor looked completely relaxed, dressed all in black.
Portaba Una Super Del 11 En Oro Bañada Bien AdiamantadaHe carried a gold-plated ‘.38 Super’ pistol, encrusted with diamonds.
Cherokee Del Año Muy Bien EquipadaHe had a brand-new ‘Cherokee SUV’, fully customized,
A Leguas Lucía Que Era Blindadaand it was obvious from a distance that it was armored.
Les Voy A Dar Una Pista Para Que Se Ubiquen A Quién Me RefieroI’m going to give you a hint so you’ll know who I’m talking about.
Tres Números Portan Su Clave Empieza Con Cero Termina Con CeroHis code consists of three numbers, starting with zero and ending with zero.
Si Sumas El Uno Con El UnoIf you add one and one together,
Te Dará Ese Número Que Va En El Medioit’ll give you the number that goes in the middle.
