Language: Spanish (Español)
Nana, niño, nana
del caballo grande
que no quiso el agua.
Duérmete, rosal,
que el caballo se pone allorar.
Las patas heridas,
las crines heladas,
dentro de los ojos
un puñal de plata.
Act I Scene 2

Une chanson, enfant, une chanson sur le grand cheval qui ne voulait pas d'eau
Language: French (Français) after the Spanish (Español)
Une chanson, enfant, une chanson
sur le grand cheval
qui ne voulait pas d'eau.
Dors, ma rose,
le cheval se met à pleurer,
ses pattes sont blessées,
sa crinière est gelée,
dans les yeux
il y a un poignard d'argent.
