and go to arrive

of the history of the school and the years

that I find a story for

Tell them that it will serve as a souvenir

My mother didn't tell me or show it to me

My grandfather

This is the plain truth because it sounded to me

well I have an afternoon of bullfighting in a

Sabanilla egg The sunny ones arrived

They reconcile already but new because they were

Celebrating the feast of January 6

when suddenly a goalscorer came out

Forastero tal or allianz is called laughing

the horse by the brake and in words or

by sales he said he was very good

who were champions

But he took the prize because

He was used to killing tigers

sick but the man's track looked

For CCOO I do not want the mount that

They carried was a Greek carapaco the

Science and the two actions a few pieces

of inmates

the mackerel among other things and they looked

more or less but the mode of mounting have

A new style

And people shouted at him that when he put

WEB says Mayer Great Doing the

baker while most advertised

He became more pantallero taking advantage of the

timing and advancing ground

Boys from Malucos knocked down his

Hat and the enchanted of life is

I went down to pick up which first

They pushed and teased him and he

stuck out his tongue and sucked his fingers

Only he in his head knew what

was doing

enjoyed and enjoyed until more

could of all the blankets lives that

had painted and hung

We don't beat him I want to say hello to the black

Sol and Class A goalscorer

That's it

As at 2 o'clock in the afternoon it was known by

All the people who had scored very

rare of the small plains people by

everywhere with a desire to know us

Want as I said but more to give

January

That day two fighters with ice but

with fear that they threw out the first round

but not to him where they were there the

People protested because everyone wanted

Seeing them The bank was full

consciences and companions waiting for the

Sunny

the famous sea and that I remember that

They released a Madryn Ero pattern

When the great draft came out with chando

Like a palmero acts like a pond turtle

eyes like a little owl and a cap

color that looked like carpenter when it

They saw like this

That's when they applauded him the most

And there was so much excitement that the brand was

He went to the ground and in the middle of that sense

Bull and horse went to rubbing with

the chest like the river with candy when

They were on the page looked at the closing

The bull in the strait wanted to get out of

confinement and completion came to the

Legs

But when the scorer Radio Paisa

He ran back with both hands in

Stop so much thanks to heaven shouted

like a lost that they went to pick up the

that it wasn't the first time he's been

There is never a kiss and the prize is

offered to the goalscorer plus zero when

They got to the point that more and that

less already in the eyes had already won

All the affection of the people living the

Experience of all those who do not want

pantallero — show-off / flashy braggart

Pantallero describes someone who loves to attract attention and show off, especially through exaggerated behavior. In the song, the outsider becomes increasingly pantallero as the crowd praises him, making the word a memorable piece of Colombian Llanos-style storytelling.

“El Coleador Forastero” tells a lively country tale about a stranger who arrives at a bull event in Sabanilla during the January 6 celebration. He calls himself a great coleador, a rider who works with a bull from horseback, and boasts that he is used to “matar tigres enfermos” [killing sick tigers], a funny way of making himself sound fearless and experienced. His equipment looks unusual, his riding style is new to the crowd, and the young men tease him by knocking off his hat. He happily picks it up, sticks out his tongue, and even sucks his fingers. The more people laugh at him, the more he plays the clown, while secretly knowing exactly what he is doing.

By the afternoon, the whole town is talking about this unusual rider from the plains. When he finally enters, dressed in a strange-looking cap and riding with an exaggerated style, the crowd cheers even louder. Then the bull and horse rush together, nearly brushing their chests, and the rider completes the move as the bull tries to escape the enclosure. He returns with both hands raised, thanking heaven, and wins the prize for the best coleador. The song’s fun comes from watching a boastful outsider turn a noisy crowd’s teasing into admiration, with plenty of local words such as forastero [outsider] and llanos [the open plains].
