Translation

Este es el corrido del caballo blanco

This is the ballad of the white horse

Que en un día domingo feliz arrancara

That on a happy Sunday, he took off

Iba con la mira de llegar al norte

He had the aim to reach the north

Habiendo salido de Guadalajara

Having left from Guadalajara


Su noble jinete le quito la rienda, le quito la silla

His noble rider took away the reins, took away the saddle

Y se fue a puro pelo

And went bareback

Cruzo como rayo tierras nayaritas

He crossed like lightning the lands of Nayarit

Entre cerros verdes y lo azul del cielo

Among green hills and the blue of the sky


A paso más lento llego hasta Escuinahuatl

At a slower pace, he arrived at Escuinahuatl

Y por Culiacán ya se andaba quedando

And by Culiacán, he was already getting tired

Cuentan que en los montes ya se iba cayendo

They say that in the mountains, he was falling

Que llevaba todo el hocico sangrando

That he had his whole snout bleeding


Pero lo miraron pasar por Sonora

But they saw him pass through Sonora

Y el valle del yaqui le dio su ternura

And the Yaqui Valley gave him its tenderness

Cuenta que cojeaba de la pata izquierda

They say he limped on the left leg

Y a pesar de todo siguió su aventura

And despite everything, he continued his adventure


Lego hasta Hermosillo

He reached Hermosillo

Siguió pa' Caborca

He continued to Caborca

Y por Mexicali sintió que moría

And in Mexicali, he felt like dying

Subió paso a paso por la rumorosa

He climbed step by step through La Rumorosa

Llegando a Tijuana con la luz del día

Arriving in Tijuana with the light of day


Cumplida su hazaña llego a Rosarito

Having accomplished his feat, he arrived in Rosarito

Y no quiso echarse hasta ver ensenada

And didn't rest until he saw Ensenada

Este fue el corrido del caballo blanco que salió

This was the ballad of the white horse that left

Un domingo de Guadalajara
