El Jinete

Through the distant mountain
A rider is galloping
Wandering alone in the world
And wishing for death

He carries a wound in his chest
With his soul shattered
He wishes to lose his life
And reunite with his beloved

He loved her more than his own life
And lost her forever
That's why he carries a wound
That's why he seeks death

Singing on his guitar
He spends whole nights
Man and guitar crying
In the light of the stars

Then he gets lost in the night
And though the night is very beautiful
He asks God
To take him with her

He loved her more than his own life
And lost her forever
That's why he carries a wound
That's why he seeks death
That's why he carries a wound
That's why he seeks death

Ay ay ay
