## Transcript

[0:12] Well, I was telling them that the story is called a tale of the
[0:17] past and it' s authentic. I' m going to tell you,
[0:21] because everything I tell you is true, authentic and beautiful. Hear it hear
[0:38] it mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Saint Isidro, back in those times lost in oblivion, was a
[0:47] smaller town than now, but very flourishing. San Isidro is that town that
[0:54] remains on the north road going to Matagalpa. It' s been a town
[1:00] they' re famous for the scares. There I went out earlier the mocuana
[1:03] and there was a famous story that I' ve already told you about transformed
[1:08] mares. But, well, this is another story. It' s different.
[1:12] In San Isidro people began to be frightened because, they said, two
[1:18] or three times a week, I went out the terror of the cart in
[1:23] closed waters and the doors early Napoleon and put on the doors a cru de
[1:30] p more blessed of Palm Sunday and for what purpose we use them, for
[1:36] what I will put them. Oh, he pays that he' s a
[1:41] kid and you don' t see that he' s shutting up, that
[1:46] ' s the nights, the creeping cart comes out in water and what he
[1:47] ' s doing in the wagon. Not to see who gets hurt in the
[1:51] face of an idiot are afraid of a wagon that passes by the street.
[1:57] It' s just that this year is a challenge, whether you' re
[2:02] carting them or not. This wagon walks without oxen and without any man go
[2:09] alone a wagon without oxen and without belle you have seen it that day,
[2:23] Good Cardon, for I have not seen him. But nothing, but nothing,
[2:30] little girl must be some cart carrying sweet or anything else that entered the
[2:36] village? Or does it pass through town? That' s all that happens,
[2:39] is that people are very new to everyone they get scared, look at
[2:46] Napoleon, porseo for not. I want to put at the door in the
[2:53] house a blessed Palma cross of which Ramón gave on Sunday. There was s
[3:00] okay put it on. You can put it on and close the doors.
[3:05] If you want and pray the rosaries you' ll want too. But I
[3:09] ' ll tell you one thing. For more than fifty years I' ve
[3:15] been hearing that story in the water cart. I' ve never seen one
[3:20] in my life Ah, those are stories. Niñada, oh the tales,
[3:32] but they were no discounts. The nights of San Isidro witnessed what was happening
[3:42] there. As soon as night came, all the houses closed the doors and
[3:50] in the street no soul was seen. The silence was absolute, only interrupted
[3:59] by the life was of the dogs. When it was eight o' clock
[4:04] or nine o' clock in the night, it looked like midnight, a
[4:11] tiny moon stood over the bell tower of the little church and the night was
[4:18] mysterious and people slept in fear because at any moment the noise of the wagon
[4:31] to the water was beginning to sound like any wagon walking in a uneven street,
[4:38] but those who had dared to see it said that the wagon was not
[4:45] carrying oxen or bulls and that I was leaving only in the voice of the
[4:48] ballero, sounding like hollow, like an ultra grave, like the voice of
[4:54] a dead man. A wey oh wey o o ay Napoleon. That'
[5:24] s where I' m not waking up. Be me you know I don
[5:35] ' t believe in nagua cart mm D. I want to tell you that
[6:14] in San Isidro no wagons in water had ever left. No other frights had
[6:18] come out, yes, but cart in water never. Therefore, the first
[6:28] week the cart in water appeared three times, all the people commented during the
[6:31] day on the presence of that old fright in the Central American tradition, but
[6:39] new in the town of San Isidro. Among those who spoke the most,
[6:46] this veremon was his name, an alien peasant who worked as a pion in
[6:51] the surrounding farms. He had arrived in the village a short time ago and
[6:58] was a dove. He was an eagle tall, good man, an apo,
[7:01] man you want nothing. No, and after about swimming and poor Napo,
[7:06] Napo' s man, I didn' t know you could see yourself
[7:12] as here, as so tight. And that one' s been better.
[7:15] I' m looking for another place, because it' s still time,
[7:20] it was to walk somewhere else, man, throw fleas elsewhere, and that
[7:23] ' s very easy. But I do if you don' t like it,
[7:26] St Isidro, because when you get fucked, go that nobody has you
[7:30] here by force axis and ay grabbed a stick like he grabbed a bar No,
[7:35] if it' s the truth, what I' m telling you,
[7:38] man, well I' m not leaving because I like the town. No,
[7:41] well, if you like the town, then stop talking pussy. If
[7:44] I don' t, it' s talk, man, and I'
[7:46] m just commenting, because Javi, commenting or seeing is that one thing and
[7:50] talking and another thing commenting on nothing, because the two things are the same.
[7:53] Don Napo, don napo, if what you want I was told,
[7:57] for the wagon daughter is like a busy note and is a tufo garlic I
[8:01] do not want God, I have not felt tufo sulfur nor you fas.
[8:05] Nothing, it' s just people' s inventions. I told Doña Lala
[8:09] I knew Doña Ala, I won' t know her. Güey then told
[8:13] Doña Lala that last night on the reel she was leaving a smell of suffering
[8:16] that I was going the noise of dead bone. What a barbarity of pure
[8:22] inventions to starve him. If that' s worse than looking at my wife
[8:26] at midi they' re just slugs here, man look. That' s
[8:30] a wagon, like any other wagon or bru that' s the wagon is
[8:37] like then, don' t you, Don what do you want? So
[8:41] you don' t believe in the wagon anything, but how am I going
[8:46] to believe, man, don' t be sluggy that arbaro Na me as
[8:52] well, Donna, you believe in the race. Yeah, I don'
[8:54] t know anything. Man, I' m so scared of Bagua' s
[8:58] wagon. You' re afraid of the race. What I lay down at
[9:01] evenings and curru eats under the colchi and ends up in today' s council
[9:03] so as not to make the way to the cart. Chocho brother, but
[9:09] what a challenge there is to wet him done what you so much when you
[9:13] spoke man, and they say that such one of those wagons. Well,
[9:18] they say he stops a while in front of the house in the master fool,
[9:22] for it is to see the oldest. Donna, the fright stops,
[9:26] people say, right, for himself in front of my little patron done Messia
[9:31] ' s tent. Sure if it says then they say like it turns around
[9:37] in the corner. There he spins a little bit, like, like,
[9:39] like, he' s being tempted, like, by the tailers of the
[9:43] horses. Well and then there just and but it turns back to get lost
[9:48] in the middle of the guide the dogs look already I think that already they
[9:54] stop my ears when what, when I hear the sharps of the dogs in
[9:58] my hundreds until all my ears stop. Oh, if all your ears stop,
[10:03] I say chollo hairs. It' s just that it' s the
[10:05] fear I' m afraid you' re going to the collas. Man look
[10:09] and speaking in the rock your boss, how is the man got rich with
[10:13] the trout he put. Now it' s a big one. Well,
[10:18] he' s getting rich, not a good mention, no, but like
[10:24] if the boss sells his little things or if he does cut the hat,
[10:33] camisoles, callonjíos, what watches, radios, what of et cetera. It
[10:39] stops that yes, of course if it sells its four little things, because
[10:46] m butteren bars, can, has the agency and coca cola. It sells
[10:50] products, the snail m also has curd, brands is also where it will
[10:54] not tend rennet. So, no, man, if it' s already
[10:58] big, they tend the middle. Yeah, man, I' m big,
[11:01] well, and like Guidonnap Donnapo, that' s what he wanted.
[11:05] But speaking of the wagon in water, how do we do with it wagon,
[11:11] how do we do it, because nothing leave the cart man that nobody
[11:15] harms, for I tell the truth, as long as the wagon does not
[11:18] hurt him, Anna and then rent is really already that. Oh, Mommy,
[11:22] nothing is that. In the other week the poor boy comes to conjure
[11:28] the streets and face the horror of the cart to Nagua. Let' s
[11:35] go as you said" Enseña", as you said, for what you
[11:39] are hearing. In the other week, that horror will happen the little father
[11:45] comes and he will personally face the frightful God the Father, you don'
[11:52] t have to count on it, but I see mm Mira, besides his
[11:58] scapular and his San Francisco cordon, has a copeta nejo twenty that God doesn
[12:03] ' t want, and that is to defend the horrors. Well, no
[12:07] or no a po but open is the relationship that there is that he has
[12:13] scopeti, which is an apo and the little Father also flies Balajjaja. That
[12:24] little father doesn' t shoot twice because the first shot m emptys your eye.
[12:31] There' s mommy. I' m getting a little complicated. You
[12:35] said no rosemary, nothing said that good is that the little father is good
[12:41] and it will be true that he has no enemies, because he does not
[12:45] have live. They' re all dead. Man, well, here comes
[12:50] the little father. It' s getting rid of that damn wagon in water,
[12:56] because it' s good. And when the little pagrejito comes the other
[13:00] week, next week is good. It' s wine. Open I say
[13:09] the brims, I say I win them free from the fright and the wagon
[13:13] in water. Ah at last I saw the peasant in haste that we were.
[13:48] He left for his employer' s house. He was in the kitchen
[13:52] chatting with the cook ate and then he was thinking we should hurry the bigger
[14:00] plan. I said priest arrives, he' s going to spoil everything.
[14:03] No, no, no, more nights I' ve worked to get gory
[14:05] to come, to edit pa, to pay them. I don' t
[14:11] have to see him today and I' m going to tell the tollita I
[14:18] ' m here like this. Hey, it' s the plan, listen
[14:20] to this one for the plan We were the one for the uida. It
[14:24] ' s car and there and it wasn' t in the other week,
[14:28] because we' re going to advance it, tollito, and it' s
[14:31] just that I thought we' d run away the other week. But it
[14:31] ' s better now and there, but what right now, the night you
[14:35] already see ah when you hear the noise of the wagon, I opened the
[14:39] door of the store, just as we planned today. So I hear today
[14:45] we' re going to hear Jim Charra looking pretty clear that if this thing
[14:50] they theory, no or mommy, they' re measuring you Chagita and the
[14:54] truth covers, Mommy, what I married you already think you have me cucurrado,
[14:58] truth amenita, well, tomorrows we see rich, who endures us like
[15:05] a shop on the mountain. You really want me to make you rich there,
[15:07] or, Mamita, because you went with me, codita and you were
[15:13] going to see all of them will respect me who can stand us with a
[15:20] tent on the mountain and there for a comb and no more in San Antonio,
[15:24] Here or a pin, give you a quintal of coffee. Aytalion Giliberta,
[15:26] I really do. Oh, well, then I' ll be ready
[15:31] by 10: 00. You think ah the little diet, not before what
[15:35] time, about nine o' clock, As at nine o' clock today
[15:39] the wagon in water is going to leave at nine o' clock earlier at
[15:43] nine o' clock. This was the thing with an erasm bug. That
[15:56] night he went to the pasture. He took the two black oxen out of
[16:00] his boss. He dyed them with black aneline. The white cachos also put
[16:04] black anelina on their helmets, so that they were totally black so that they
[16:10] would not be seen in the blackness of the night. He was an extinct
[16:14] bandit, right, wicho. Of course, those oxen pulling the wagon didn
[16:18] ' t look at each other. Only the wagon was seen walking alone without
[16:22] oxen and the bun was the bare and embezzled erasm itself. The body with
[16:27] black cortil was not seen in black and night either. Ah WEY ah ah
[16:40] ay WEY ah WEY no? Don' t you? Don' t you?
[16:45] Don' t you? The people in their homes dead of fear and
[16:45] Don' t you? Don' t you? Don' t you?
[16:51] that wagon in water doing their August, came to the shop of the fool,
[16:56] the cook opened the door and between the two, the asmo and the
[17:00] tollita began to load cuts, watches, lads, guejo in motion, lamps,
[17:07] batillas, hats, finally pile, a lot of mercandillas. When the
[17:12] wagon was full, it went out another way, losing itself in the blackness
[17:18] of the night. The next day, when Nemesio got up and saw his
[17:22] shop ransacked. He' s a holy philomena God, and he doesn'
[17:27] t even see me being robbed. They haven' t stolen all the stores,
[17:32] all the philate is no longer dawn. I' m sure he'
[17:37] s already an accomplice He' s calling the police soon He' s rocking
[18:10] brozo Esperanta. There I huddled fear here above and ta did go co,
[18:18] mom, don' t me what you' re going to fuck me with
[18:26] my nose and j h wey oh ah wey how old what the smart tollita
[18:32] is. Yeah, mm we' re stuck. Those tollitos do, maybe
[18:37] the wagon product' s not cool like that, we' re rich.

[19:29] me coming a chunch as car. I' m gonna keep polvareras. Yeah,
[19:33] and this road is mules and carts. Here never comes a vehicle.
[19:38] There' s cute mommy. It' s gonna be that what? What
[19:44] was that? What what? They' re following them, because I think
[19:51] we were. I think it comes from the boss where the mess with some
[19:56] guards. Then it' s coming up next what' s following me.
[20:00] So this toyeta here is rich, rich or not, but it' s
[20:06] just that they' re following you, if I go for this potter,

[20:17] partridges. I' m going to love boy. The police captured you were
[20:29] dying tollite. A story and two lessons. The first thing you don'
[20:33] t have to be believing in scares, because you already see because of that
[20:38] scare, the people' s tent was plundered. And the second thing to
[20:42] steal is not to be smart, because always the thief ends up in jail.
[20:47] If it' s smart to work, I' ll study, be
[20:52] a good man a lot. I know you don' t believe it.
[20:55] Many do not believe it, but it is authentic and authentic. I'
[21:00] ll see you there. But that' s it.
