Текст и перевод песни La Original Banda El Limón de Salvador Lizárraga - El Cantador

El Cantador

Nació bajo de una higuera, su madre fue yegua fina
Le llamaban "La Catrina", yo le puse "El Cantador"
Fue un potrillo comadrillo de otro caballo cualquiera
Y como yo lo hice mio resultó muy corredor

(Era lindo mi caballo, era mi amigo mas fiel, ligerito como el rayo, era de muy buena ley)

Cuando era de falsa rienda daba ventaja a su madre
Muy pronto dejó a su padre, con dos cuerpos le ganó
Era de pelo repinto cruzado con un lucero, muy fachoso y mitotero y lindo de corazón

(Era lindo mi caballo, era mi amigo mas fiel, ligerito como un rayo, era de muy buena ley)

Nació bajo de una higuera y en el potrero quedó
Que lastima que muriera mi compañero mejor
Por eso cuándo el sol muere y la luna va a salir
Me voy hasta aquel potrero mil recuerdos a vivir

(Era lindo mi caballo, era mi amigo mas fiel, ligerito como un rayo, era de muy buena ley)

The Singer

He was born under a fig tree, his mother was a fine mare
They called her "La Catrina", I named him "El Cantador"
He was a colt, a buddy to any other horse
And since I made him mine, he turned out to be a great runner

(My horse was beautiful, he was my most loyal friend, quick as lightning, he was a man of his word)

When he was unbroken, he would give his mother a head start
He soon left his father behind, beating him by two lengths
He had a flashy coat with a cross and a star on his forehead, he was very elegant and proud, and beautiful at heart

(My horse was beautiful, he was my most loyal friend, quick as lightning, he was a man of his word)

He was born under a fig tree, and he stayed in the pasture
It's a pity he died, he was my best friend
That's why when the sun goes down and the moon comes up
I go to that pasture to relive a thousand memories

(My horse was beautiful, he was my most loyal friend, quick as lightning, he was a man of his word)
