Текст и перевод песни Conjunto Rio Grande - Muerte en un Coleadero

Muerte en un Coleadero

En la hacienda del Jaral
En mil novecientos veinte
Al entrar a un coleadero
Se mato un hombre valiente

Miguel era un coleador
Se atenía que era buen gallo
Pero al arcionar al toro
Se le destanteo el caballo

Le echaron al toro corriendo
Miguel lo siguió con ansias
Pero no se imaginaba
Que era para su desgracia

El caballo era tordillo
No se les vaya a olvidar
Lo arrastro quinientos metros
En un duro pedregal

Decía Don Jose Maria
Señores que ha sucedido
Miren lo que esta pasando
A consecuencia del vino

Ya murió Miguel Mancera
Ya se acabo su camino
Que por colear bien borracho
Una cruz le dio el destino

Death at a Coleadero

At the Jaral ranch
In the year nineteen twenty
Coming into the coleadero
A valiant man met his end

Miguel was a bull rider
Thought himself a fine fellow
But saddling the bull
His horse got away

They released the bull
Miguel followed eagerly
But little did he know
It would be his undoing

The horse was a gray
Don't you forget
It dragged him five hundred meters
Over rough terrain

Don Jose Maria said,
'What has happened here?'
'Look at what has happened
'As a result of drinking.'

'Miguel Mancera is dead,
'His life has come to an end,
'Because he insisted on riding drunk,
'And fate handed him a cross.'
