El Califa - ANTONIO AGUILAR

Señores voy a cantarles

El corrido de un caballo

Que se llamaba el Califa

Color Alazan Dorado

Su dueño el doctor Anaya

Medico muy afamado

Jamas perdio una carrera

Yo lo guado en mi recuerdo

Como que el penco salia

Ya ahi en sus patas llevaba

El prestigio de su pueblo

De aquel caballo ligero

Solo un corrido quedo

Porque una noche de luna

De su corral se salio

Muerto cayo en la ladera

Del rancho donde nacio

Y cuentan algunas gentes

Que el mero dia de San Carlos

Se oye el relincho de un cuaco

Y los grito de un jinete

Animando a su caballo

Aaaaah Califa, Aaaaah caballo

De alla del rancho de Trejo

Hasta el cerro de San Carlos

Agarren apostadores

Yano volvera el califa

Y anda por el partidero

Una potranca bonita

Criadero del mismo dueño

Viva la sierra chiquita

Y cuentan algunas gentes

Que el mero dia de San Carlos

Se oye el relincho de un cuaco

Y los grito de un jinete

Animando a su caballo

Aaaaah Califa, Aaaaah caballo

De alla del rancho de Trejo

Hasta el cerro de San Carlos

Gentlemen, I'm going to sing to you

The run of a horse

What was the name of the Caliph?

Color Golden Chestnut

Its owner, Dr. Anaya

very famous doctor

never lost a race

I keep it in my memory

as the penco came out

Already there in his legs he was carrying

The prestige of your town

Of that light horse

Only one corrido remains

Because one moonlit night

He came out of his corral

Dead fell on the hillside

From the ranch where he was born

And some people say

That the mere day of San Carlos

The neigh of a cuaco is heard

And I shout them from a horseman

cheering on his horse

Aaaaah Caliph, Aaaaah horse

From beyond the Trejo ranch

Up to the hill of San Carlos

grab gamblers

The caliph will return

And go through the partisan

a pretty filly

Kennel of the same owner

Long live the small mountain

And some people say

That the mere day of San Carlos

The neigh of a cuaco is heard

And I shout them from a horseman

cheering on his horse

Aaaaah Caliph, Aaaaah horse

From beyond the Trejo ranch

Up to the hill of San Carlos
