Los Cadetes de Linares
Chestnut Horse Star
Chestnut horse star,
How swift, how good you were
You won many races,
I remember well, you never lost
You never suffered defeat,
From coast to coast, it wasn't a lie
Until that mare arrived,
For whom you lost, even your life
Her eyes also dark,
She fixed them on yours, as if saying
That in those five hundred yards,
You let her, arrive first
I have it very present,
Everyone bet on you
And your owner very sure,
Risked his great fortune
When leaving the starting gate,
I saw the mare, almost flying,
And you not running violently,
Giving her time to beat you
Chestnut horse star,
Like a gentleman, with a lady
Your owner's fortune,
By a body and a half, ended up in nothing
Your owner desperate,
Taking hold of his pistol,
If they have won everything from me
This horse alone bothers me
And not giving time for anything,
With five bullets you fell wounded,
You fell next to the mare,
You who had lost for her
You died watching the mare,
As if saying, you are served
Chestnut horse star
Today your memory, I don't forget
