El Caballo La Mató
Melendi
The Horse Killed Her
She fought with all her might
But that brute fought harder to spread her legs
She believed that nothing was true
That everything was a deception, that it was hell
That man devil, dressed in suffering
There soaked in shame, complicit in silence
They buried her alive in that damn den
And she washed her wounds, in her own tears
And the coroner's report says there was no rape
No evidence that man pulled down her pants
And the secret of the investigation is closed
Because they found a needle mark on her arm
And the horse killed her
He confessed that he had done it
And based his sad defense on being too high
You see, Mr. Judge, if there was no cruelty, I killed her at the moment
When I tore her skin with my finger, her soul with my fear
If on the same Moon her cries were heard
I couldn't do anything if she was asking for it
And without something to help me, I'll say I'm sorry
And the coroner's report says there was no rape
No evidence that man pulled down her pants
And the secret of the investigation is closed
Because they found a needle mark on her arm
And the horse killed her
