Lyrics
El diecisiete de marzo,
a la ciudad de Agua Prieta
vino gente de dondequiera;
vinieron a las carreras
de Relámpago y El Moro,
dos caballos de primera.
El Moro de Pedro Frisby
era del pueblo de Cumpas,
muy bonito y muy ligero.
El Relámpago era un zaino;
era caballo de estima
de su amo, Rafael Romero.
Cuando paseaban al Moro,
se miraba tan bonito
que empezaron a apostar.
Toda la gente decía
que aquel caballo venía
especialmente a ganar.
Cheques, billetes, y pesos
le sobraron al de Cumpas
el domingo en la mañana.
Por la tarde, las apuestas
pasaron de cien mil pesos
en esa Copacabana.
Aprovecharon la apuesta
rancheros y ganaderos,
obreros y campesinos,
cantineros y meseros,
amigos y visitantes
de pueblos circunvecinos.
Frank y Jesús Valenzuela
taparon quince mil pesos
con el zaino de Romero.
Decía el Puyo Morales,
«Se me hace que con El Moro
nos ganan todo el dinero.»
Andaba Trini Ramírez
también Chendo Valenzuela
paseando ya los caballos:
dos corredores de faja,
dos buscadores de triunfo,
los dos eran buenos gallos.
Por fin dieron el Santiago,
y El Moro salió adelante
con la intención de ganar.
Ramírez le tupe al zaino
y arriba de medio taste
dejaba El Moro pa' atrás.
Leonardo Yáñez, «El Nano,»
Compositor del corrido,
a todos pide disculpa.
Aquí se acabaron dudas
Perdió el zaino de agua prieta
y gano el moro de cumpas.
Lyrics translation
The seventeenth of March,
to the city of Agua Prieta
people came from everywhere;
they came to the races
of lightning and The Moor,
two first horses.
The Moor of Pedro Frisby
he was from the village of Cumpas,
very nice and very light.
The Lightning was a backpack;
he was a horse of esteem
from his master, Rafael Romero.
When they walked the Moor,
she looked so pretty
they started betting.
All the people were saying
that horse was coming
especially to win.
Checks, bills, and pesos
he had plenty left over from Cumpas.
Sunday morning.
In the afternoon, betting
they passed a hundred thousand pesos
in that Copacabana.
They took the bet
ranchers and ranchers,
workers and peasants,
bartenders and waiters,
friends and visitors
surrounding villages.
Frank and Jesus Valenzuela
they covered fifteen thousand pesos
with Romero's backpack.
Said Puyo Morales,
"It makes me that with The Moor
they make us all the money.»
Trini Ramirez Was Walking
also Chendo Valenzuela
walking and horses:
two girdle runners,
two seekers of triumph,
they were both good cocks.
They finally gave the Santiago,
and The Moor went ahead
with the intention of winning.
Ramirez Le tupe to the backpack
and above half a taste
I was leaving the Moor behind.
Leonardo Yáñez, " The Dwarf,»
Composer of the corrido,
he apologizes to everyone.
No more doubts here
Lost the Prieta water backpack
and I win the Moro de cumpas.
