Nació y creció purasangre
Born and raised thoroughbred
Igual que su madre yegua
Just like his mother mare
Como homenaje a su padre
As a tribute to his father
Le pusieron Siete Leguas
They put Seven Leagues
Tenía lo noble por dentro
He had the noble inside
Y lo nervioso por fuera
And the nervous on the outside
Su dueño en una jugada
Your owner in a play
Tenía que pagar la apuesta
I had to pay the bet
Antes que le echaran bala
Before they shot him
Lo entregó como respuesta
He handed it in response
'Aquí les doy mi potrillo
'Here I give you my foal
Que es todo lo que me resta'
Which is all I have left'
Se lo llevaron al valle
They took him to the valley
Y empezaron a correrlo
And they started running it.
Siempre ganaba de calle
He always won on the street
Cómo daba gusto verlo
How nice to see it
Sus amos muy ambiciosos
Their very ambitious masters
Cómo ganaron dinero
How they made money
Mas siendo el mundo tan chico
But the world being so small
Un golpe jugó la vida
One blow played life
Quiso que aquel potro rico
He wanted that rich colt
Le quedara a la medida
It will fit you to measure
Para la yegua, su madre
For the mare, her mother
Que no había sido vencida
That she had not been defeated
Había una deuda de orgullo
There was a debt of pride
Y el amo dijo a su yegua
And the master said to his mare.
'Aunque sé que es hijo tuyo
'Even though I know he's your son
No debes de darle tregua
You must not give him truce
Si no le ganas, te mueres
If you don't beat him, you die
Y si le ganas, me vengas'
And if you beat him, come to me.'
El potro sintió la sangre
The foal felt the blood
Y al poco del partidero
And shortly after the match
Dejo ganar a su madre
I let his mother win
Y se fue a un desfiladero
And he went to a gorge.
Sabía que podrían matarle
He knew they could kill him.
Pero él se mató primero
But he killed himself first.
Esta es la historia señores
This is the story gentlemen
De una yegua y su potrillo
Of a mare and her foal
Ellos no entienden rencores
They don't understand grudges.
Ni quieren del oro el brillo
Nor do they want gold to shine
Pero si saben de amores
But if they know about love
Entre una madre y un hijo
Between a mother and a son
