Lyrics
Siete leguas", el caballo
que Villa mas estimaba…
«Siete leguas"el caballo
que Villa mas estimaba…
cuando oía pitar los trenes,
se paraba y relinchaba…
«Siete leguas"el caballo
que Villa mas estimaba.
Como a las tres de la tarde
silbó la locomotora
como a la tres de la tarde
silbó la locomotora…
arriba! arriba! muchachos
pongan la ametralladora…
como a las tres de la tarde
silbó la locomotora.
Oye tú…Francisco Villa…
que dice tu corazón…
oye tú…Francisco Villa…
que dice tu corazón,
ya no acuerdas valiente
que atacaste al «Paredón»
ya no te acuerdas valiente
que tomaste hasta Torreón.
Adios torres de Chihuahua
adios torres de cantera…
adios torres de Chihuahua,
adios torres de cantera…
ya llegó Francisco Villa
a quitarles «lo pantera»
ya vino Francisco Villa
a devolver la frontera
Lyrics translation
Seven leagues, " the horse
which Villa I most esteemed…
"Seven leagues" the horse
which Villa I most esteemed…
when I heard the trains beeping,
it stood and flashed…
"Seven leagues" the horse
what a Villa I valued most.
About three o'clock in the afternoon
the locomotive whistled
about three o'clock in the afternoon
the locomotive whistled…
up! up! boy
put the machine gun on.…
about three o'clock in the afternoon
the locomotive whistled.
Hey You ... Francisco Villa…
what your heart says…
Hey You ... Francisco Villa…
what your heart says,
you no longer remember brave
that you attacked The " Wall»
you don't remember brave anymore
that you took to Torreon.
Adios Chihuahua towers
farewell quarry towers…
adios Chihuahua towers,
farewell quarry towers…
Francisco Villa is here
to take away " the Panther»
Francisco Villa is here
to return the border
