Cero Miedo Lyrics in English by Los Minis de Caborca
Jauría literally means a pack of hunting dogs or hounds, making it a vivid and less common Spanish word. In the song, it is used metaphorically for a fierce, tightly united group, giving the lyrics an intense and memorable image.
“Cero Miedo” introduces a narrator moving through danger with his eyes open and his crew close by. The phrase “cero miedo” means “zero fear,” and it sums up his attitude: he stays alert, trusts his people, and says they are ready for whatever comes. When he calls the younger members “los morros” and says they are “bien bravos” [very fierce], the song presents them as a loyal, intimidating group. Names and nicknames appear throughout, including his compadre Peter, “el Pollo,” “el Rayo,” and “el Cholo,” giving the lyrics the feel of a personal roll call.
The imagery is blunt and heavily armed. The narrator mentions short guns and rifles, says his “cuernito cortito” [little short horn] helps him open the way, and declares that he is ready “para el desorden” [for the disorder or trouble]. He has heard rumors that someone wants him dead, but answers with a threat of his own: “yo ando haciendo billetito para darles más pelea” [I’m making some money to give them more of a fight]. Loyalty matters just as much as toughness. He tells a friend, “cuentas conmigo” [you can count on me], and says he will not ask when or where. The closing image is especially direct: “las manos le brinda un buen amigo, plomo doy al enemigo” [I offer a good friend my hand, and I give the enemy lead]. In this song’s world, friendship earns a handshake, while enemies receive bullets.
