Old
Horse (Simón Díaz) The horse is put out to pasture because he is old and tired but they don't realize that a heart that is tied when the reins are released becomes a runaway horse And if the old horse meets a chestnut filly his heart is pulverized and he ignores the bridle and he doesn't obey the braking and false reins don't stop him Chorus When love arrives like this, in this way you don't even realise The genipap tree comes to life again and the guamacho tree flowers and the rope snaps When love arrives like this, in this way you are not to blame love has no schedule or a date on the calendar when desires are joined The horse is put out to pasture because his days are numbered he crosses the plains with a hurried step to meet his filly who has poisoned him The colt has time for time but because he's too old the old horse cannot lose the flower he's given because when this life is over there are no more chances |
