El Media Noche

The Midnight

El Media Noche

Midnight was a horse,Media noche fue un caballo,
Black as my sorrows,Negro como mis pesares,
Brother of the seven leagues,Hermano del siete leguas,
His parents were from the coffersDe las arcas eran sus padres

He was born for the town,Fue nacido para villa,
And the town for the horse,Y villa para el caballo,
They were the explosive mix,Fueron la mezcla explosiva,
That not even the devil could stopQue no detenía ni el diablo

The town chose him among many,Villa lo escogió entre muchos,
Purebred horses,Caballos de pura sangre
The Midnight was whole,Media noche estaba entero
He was the biggest stallionEra el garañón más grande

The two identified each other,Los dos se identificaron,
From the first glance,Desde la primer mirada,
The town was thrilled,Villa se moría de gusto,
And the horse neighedY el caballo relinchaba

Since then the bald ones,Desde entonces los pelones,
Even the weapons they left behind,Hasta las armas dejaban,
When they saw the black colt,Al mirar al potro negro,
And the town riding himY a villa que lo montaba

Then came the legend,Luego vino la leyenda,
Of the great town and the horse,Del gran villa y el caballo,
They said the town was the devil,Decían que villa era el diablo,
And he rode another devilY que montaba otro diablo

Don't feel like a black colt,No te sientes potro negro,
Don't shy away from danger,Ni le saques al peligro,
We have come out of hells,Hemos salido de infiernos,
Of great enemiesDe los grandes enemigos

We continue through mistsContimas de neblinazos
That are nothing but dew,Que no son más que rocíos,
Get into the tower dancingÉntrale a torreón bailando
For we have come to danceQue a bailar hemos venido
