El corralero [English translation]

The horse is so sick

And there in the pasture is so old

We must help him to die

For him to not suffer anymore

You always were the most accurate

And that's why you must relieve his pain

How do you pretend that I

Who cared for him since foal

Nail a knife in his chest

Because the boss ordered it?

Let him graze alone

Don't reject my advice

I will bury him

When he dies as old

Near the estuary below

I found him laying almost dying

I came slowly to him

And wanted to explain him

But by seeing him resigned

My hand trembled and I started crying
