The angels took my racehorse away

Os anjos levaram meu cavalo de corrida

The angels took my racehorse away

Bem, os anjos vieram me ver hojeWell the angels came to see me today
Disseram: "Levamos seu cavalo de corrida embora"Said "We've taken your racehorse away"
E eu acredito que foi aquele agenciador de apostas de CrailAnd I believe it was that bookmaker from crail
Acredito que ele colocou um na ração delaI believe that he put one in her pail
Todos os melhores do campoAll the finest in the field
Só mediam até os ombros, só viam os cascos delaOnly measured to her shoulders, they only ever see her heels
E eu acredito (eu acredito) que todo apostador vai chorarAnd I believe (I believe) every sporting man will cry
Acredito (eu acredito) ao ver sua grana passarI believe (I believe) to see his income pass him by

Ela ganhou o Lanark Silver Bell e roubou todos os coraçõesShe won the Lanark Silver Bell and she stole every heart away
Ela tinha dezesseis mãos e eu montava nela fácilShe stood her stand at sixteen hands and I'd ride her easy
Mas levaram ela embora, levaram meu cavalo de corridaBut they've taken her away, they've taken my racehorse away

Tem uma pista de corrida no céuThere's a racecourse in the sky
E é pra lá que todos os cavalos de corrida devem ir, um diaAnd that's where all the racing horses must go by and by
E eu acredito (eu acredito) que todo comissário, nobre e tratador,And I believe (I believe) every steward, lord and groom,
Acredito (eu acredito) que estão chamando o nome delaI believe (I believe) that they're calling her name

Ela olhava nos meus olhos e isso era tudo que precisava dizerShe would look at me in the eyes and that was all she had to say
Ela tinha dezesseis mãos e eu montava nela fácilShe stood her stand at sixteen hands and I'd ride her easy
Mas levaram, levaram meu cavalo de corridaBut they've taken, they've taken my racehorse away
Levaram meu cavalo de corridaThey've taken my racehorse away
Levaram meu cavalo de corridaThey've taken my racehorse away
Levaram meu cavalo de corridaThey've taken my racehorse away
Levaram meu cavalo de corridaThey've taken my racehorse away
Levaram meu cavalo de corridaThey've taken my racehorse away
