Peach Blossom

Flor de Durazno

The verses I'm singingLos versos que estoy cantando
Are heard by NatotonilboLos oyen Natotonilbo
They are about the peach blossomSon los del flor de durazno
A very beautiful horseUn caballo muy bonito
He was of light hoovesFue de los cascos ligeros
The scourge of JaliscoEl azote de Jalisco

Horse of great heightCaballo de gran alzada
That was never defeatedQue nunca fue derrotado
Born in Autlan de la GranaNace en Autlan de la grana
And grew throughout the stateY crece en todo el estado
His mother was the TexanSu madre fue la tejana
And his father the ColoradanY su padre el Colorado

They say the peach blossomDicen que el flor de durazno
Could have been more famousPudo ser más afamado
Even the Moor of CunpasAl mismo moro de Cunpas
He would have easily beatenFácil le hubiera ganado
They say he could beatDicen que podía ganarle
The dappled gray coltAl potro lobo gateado

He took people from TiguamoLlevo gente de Tiguamo
From the boat and San GregorioDe la barca y san Gregorio
To see the peach blossomA ver al flor de durazno
When he beat the ace of heartsCuando le ganó al as de oros
Although he won in a hurryAunque le ganó apurado
He won anywayLe ganó de todos modos

They looked for a horseLe buscaron un caballo
To end his famePara acabar con su fama
They prepared the lightningLe prepararon al rayo
Terror of GuadalajaraTerror de Guadalajara
And the peach blossom wonY ganó el flor de durazno
However he pleasedComo se le dio la gana

But one Palm SundayPero un domingo de ramos
He won in Puerto VallartaQue ganó én puerto Vallarta
The one who rode the fillyBalaceo al flor de durazno
Shot the peach blossomEl que montó a la potranca
And so ended the horseY así se acabó el caballo
Fastest in the regionMás veloz de la comarca
