La Muerte Del Buen Amigo

From that famous rope he has over there in Pivijai
That has given so much glory to Don Vicente Caballero
A spirited chicken of very unique size was chosen
To give it the same name as a party-loving friend
And Don Vicente tells me he named him Poncho Zuleta

Don Vicente invited Poncho for when the day arrived
For the chicken to make its debut and have a happy encounter
But one morning upon arriving at the gallery
He received the fatal news that Poncho had died
And he was deeply saddened by the death of the good friend

But clarifying things, he then came to know
That the deceased had not been his party-loving friend
But the chicken with his name that couldn't fight
Since Poncho was alive, he thanked the heavens
And now he says with great joy Poncho is still alive
