Corría el 10 de mayo por tierras de Almería
donde pasó la historia que vengo a relatar:
de Santander salieron Cobo, Mañas y Montero
y en tres sobres volvieron por un trágico error.
Por un error los años de fatigas se fueron
para la funeraria la lápida y la cruz
y en mitad de la vida sin frío ni calentura
los tres cuerpos quedaron negros como el carbón.
¿A dónde están los brazos?
¿A dónde están las piernas?
¿A dónde están los gritos que el viento se llevó?
En Casafuerte, amigo, perdidos en la arena
que como una bandera ardiendo levantó.
Si por Gerga. pasaras la curva de la muerte,
lleva claveles rojos y acuérdate de Juan y acuérdate de Cobo
-que nadie olvide nada que quien olvida paga-,
acuérdate de Luis.
Así acaba esta historia que con sangre escribieron.
De toda aquella vida sólo queda el horror.
Así acaba esta historia de sombra y de tiniebla.
Para que no se pierda aquí la dejo yo.
¡Qué pasó en Almería!, ¡pobre Almería! ¡ay Almería!
The lyrics EL CASO ALMERIA of CARLOS CANO is also present in the album Si estuvieran abiertas todas las puertas (1983)
Carlos Cano (1924-1987) è stato un cantante e compositore spagnolo di copla, genere musicale tradizionale iberico. Nato a Madrid, Cano ha iniziato la sua carriera negli anni '40, diventando rapidamente uno dei più popolari interpreti della copla. La sua voce calda e melodiosa, insieme alle sue composizioni malinconiche e romantiche, hanno conquistato il pubblico spagnolo. Tra le sue canzoni più famose ricordiamo "El Relicario", "La Paloma del Amor" e "No Me Quieras". Cano ha collaborato con numerosi artisti spagnoli di successo e ha inciso diversi album che sono diventati classici della copla. La sua musica è ancora oggi apprezzata in Spagna e nel mondo, testimoniando la sua influenza duratura sulla cultura musicale iberica.
