Spirit
Spirit, a stallion born in the wild,
Follows a strange light near his herd,
And finds horses chained up,
And people sleeping around a campfire.
They wake up and capture Spirit,
One of them tries to tame him.
They try to ride him,
But he throws them off.
Spirit escapes from the people,
And meets a mare called Rain.
The two horses fall in love,
And the people start a battle.
Rain gets shot and thrown into a river,
Spirit runs after her and rescues her.
She is nursed back to health,
And they both escape from the people,
And head towards Spirit’s homeland.
