Singer: Vicente Fernández
A esa yegua palomina
Retomona y de ojos verdes
Yo le voy a echarrumpiar
Y aunque en este rumbo dicen
Que ando aprendiendo a ser charro
Yo la tengo que amansar
Tiene un porte elegantioso
Y un andar muy cadencioso
Siempre me hace suspirar
Cuando la miro se crece
Se compone y me entristece
Que me haga, desesperar
Ay Dios eterno, solo pido, que me hagas un favor
Que mi yegua Palomina, como le digo a esa indina
No se tarde en entregarme su amor
Sus ojos verdes, ya se clavaron tan dentro de mí
Que si no los veo me enfermo
Y en las noches ya ni duermo
Me la paso, en solo sufrir
That palomino mare
Stubborn with green eyes
I’m going to tame her
Even though they say
That I’m learning to be a charro
I have to tame her
She has an elegant bearing
And a way to walk
She always makes me sigh
When I look at her, she stands taller
She composes herself, and it saddens me
That she makes me despair
Oh, eternal God, I only ask, that you do me a favor
That my Palomino mare, as I call that stubborn one
Doesn’t take long to give me her love
Her green eyes have already pierced so deep into me
That if I don’t see them, I get sick
And at night, I can’t even sleep
I spend my time just suffering
A mi yegua Palomina
Yo la quiero por catrina
Por rebelde y de buen ver
Por grandota y por ladina
Porque esta hecha a mi medida
Pronto será mi mujer
Ay Dios eterno, solo pido, que me hagas un favor
Que mi yegua Palomina, como le digo a esa indina
No se tarde en entregarme su amor
Sus ojazos verdes, ya se clavaron tan dentro de mí
Que si no los veo me enfermo
Y en las noches ya ni duermo
Me la paso, en puro sufrir
I love my Palomino mare
I like her for being elegant
For being rebellious and good-looking
For being big and clever
Because she’s just my type
Soon, she’ll be my wife
Oh, dear God, I only ask for one favor
That my Palomino mare, as I call her
Doesn’t take too long to give me her love
Her big green eyes have already gotten so deep into me
That if I don’t see them, I get sick
And at night, I can’t sleep
I spend all my time just suffering
