Of total meekness,
although very braves and strong,
they are named, with love,
the "angels of the death."

You are custodian of the home;
of the woman, company;
very children's lover:
you are of my homeland.

When you receive the order
"we go to hunt",
full with party to your master
and you leave with the pack.

You walk this way after the rake
that you look for with great zeal
and hours and hours you happen
being brave next to your owner.

You finally found the hint
that it will take you to the combat,
doubling your efforts
to arrive as soon as possible.

Imposing boar!
in the mount it is located,
mating the Dogos
to leave him fences.

He originates bloody fight:
It is question of life or death!
dogs and wild animal are attacked
and they defend brutally.

Each dog makes his part;
Two fasten of the sides,
one more in the ear
and the boar is staked.

With the knife in the hand the hunter already comes closer,
and it loses it in the throat
of the ferocious predator.

The Dogos combat this way
to that swinish savage that makes
nonpareil havocs in the Argentinean fields.

Also with foxes and pumas
they have brave scenes
these worthy ones our dogs
that they come their audacities.

Oh brave Creole Dogos,
that already at night or by day
they are excellent custodians
of this earth so dear!

But one day in Black River,
in fatal attack,
a pig attacks furious
when seeing their lost blood.

He goes toward your master...
Day of Trevelín looks at it:
your instinct is telling him:
"he runs, it defends their life."

Without hesitating one second
desperate you come closer,
you intervene between both
and... he gives you death the wild animal.

Badly wounded, but make happy
when seeing safe to your owner
you give your white body
to the blackest and I release dream.

For sure being in death agony
you thought: "fulfilled mission"
and they close this way your eyes;
this way you save a life.

You knew that you would die
with your to proceed praiseworthy,
but you won the glory
great unbribable guardian.

Damned harmful hog
that a thousand times it was your prey
you got paid expensive the value
that " Day " put in the emergency!

How sad end wished you
developing that action!
How beautiful act of boldness
your heart offered!

Robust, white, elegant,
handsome, nobleman and faithful friend
valiant Day of Trevelín,
that the peace is with you.

Example of love and fight,
of sacrifice and nobility,
of loyalty, of character,
of discipline and value.

Your memory always lives
as the dedicated flame;
we all cry you
from that farewell.
