El Profeta
Los Huracanes del Norte
The Prophet
They say that in a shipment
he arrived in San Diego from Arabia
from the finest breeding
of the Muro and Audalas
of great prestige in the world
from the Middle East to Asia.
Since the colt was born
he had a very nice color
it was between bay and dark
more of a dark color
they took him through Tijuana
to Hermosillo.
They took him to the mountains
to start his adventure
he won in Babiacorayuepa
Arizpe and in Moctezuma
to the lightest winged
of the Osuna horses.
He won all over the country
and in the United States
when he returned to Hermosillo
he beat the Kansas deer
which many followed
because they didn't want to risk against him.
The great experts say
with knowledgeable minds
that he measured twelve hands
from mane to tail
the most beautiful specimen
that Sonora has known.
During December festivities
they took him to Zahuaripan
where he met his mother
whom he didn't know
his owner Jorge Rivera
had her well hidden.
They set up the race
for December thirteenth
he always aimed to win
the owner from the Middle East
with my ranch Capomos
against all you have.
Jorge accepted the bet
because he never backed down
but when the gates opened
his mare took the lead
and so she reached the finish line
never losing the advantage.
They called him the prophet
for coming from the Holy Land
he never thought that in the mountains
a mare would beat him
especially Jorge's bay
with which he herded cows.
