TARDE DE SOL, TORO Y ARENA; HAY GRITO DE FERIA EN CALI
TORERO EN EL REDONDEL; ¡AY QUÉ TORERO!
SE VAN LOS BANDERILLEROS, SE MIRAN TORO Y TORERO
SE ENFRENTAN EN FIEL ALID, ¡BRAVO TORERO!

ESTE TOREA DE FRENTE, LE GUSTA CARGAR LA SUERTE
NO LE TIENE MIEDO AL TORO; ¡BRAVO TORERO!
SEÑORES, NO ES ANDALUZ, PERDONE, NO ES SEVILLANO
QUE PENA, NO ES DE MADRID [Es colombiano]

DE LA PLAZA A LA CASETA, SE SIENTE LA FIESTA BRAVA

HAY SANGRE EN LA ARENA Y NO ES DEL TORERO [Ay qué torero]

The song "Torero" by Orquesta Guayacan depicts the excitement and intensity surrounding a bullfight in Cali, Colombia. The song begins by describing a beautiful afternoon filled with sun, sand, and the cries of the fair. The torero (bullfighter) enters the ring and is met with admiration and respect from both the banderilleros and the bull. The torero faces the bull with bravery and isn't afraid to take on the challenge head-on. The song then reveals that the torero isn't from Andalusia or Sevilla, as one might expect in a bullfight, but rather from Colombia.
