El Jinete
Jorge Negrete
The Rider
Through the distant mountain
A rider is riding
Wandering alone in the world
And wishing for death
Carries a wound in his chest
Goes with his soul shattered
He would like to lose his life
And reunite with his beloved
He loved her more than his life
And lost her forever
That's why he carries a wound
That's why he seeks death
With his guitar singing
He spends whole nights
Man and guitar crying
In the light of the stars
Then he gets lost in the night
And although the night is very beautiful
He asks God
To take him with her
He loved her more than his life
And lost her forever
That's why he carries a wound
That's why he seeks death
