Caballo Prieto Azabache - Maria Dolores Pradera

Caballo prieto azabache

Cómo olvidar que te debo la vida

Cuando iban a ajusticiarme

Las fuerzas leales de Pancho Villa

Aquella noche nublada

Una avanzada me sorprendió

Y tras de ser desarmado

Fui sentenciado al paredón

Ya cuando estaba en capilla

Le dijo villa a su asistente

Me apartas ese caballo

Por educado y por obediente

Sabía que no me escapaba

Y solo pensaba en la salvación

Y tú mi prieto azabache

También pensabas igual que yo

Recuerdo que me dijeron

Pide un deseo pa' justiciarte

Yo quero que me afusilen en mi caballo

Prieto azabache

Y cuando en ti me montaron

Y prepararon la ejecucución

Mi voz de mando esperaste

Y abalanzaste contra el pelotón

Con tres balazos de mauser

Corriste azabache, salvando mi vida

Lo que tú hiciste conmigo

Caballo amigo, no se me olvida

No pude salvar la tuya

Y la amargura me hace llorar

Por eso prieto azabache

No he de olvidarte nunca jamás

Caballo prieto azabache

Cómo olvidar que te debo la vida…

jet black horse

How to forget that I owe you my life

When they were going to execute me

The loyal forces of Pancho Villa

that cloudy night

An advanced surprised me

And after being disarmed

I was sentenced to the wall

Already when I was in the chapel

Villa told his assistant

you take away that horse

For polite and for obedient

I knew I wasn't running away

And I only thought of salvation

And you my tight jet

you also thought the same as me

I remember being told

Make a wish to get justice

I want to be shot on my horse

tight jet

And when they mounted me on you

And they prepared the execution

My voice of command you waited

And you lunged at the platoon

With three Mauser bullets

You ran jet, saving my life

what you did to me

Horse friend, I do not forget

I couldn't save yours

And the bitterness makes me cry

That's why tight jet

I will never forget you

jet black horse

How can I forget that I owe you my life…
