During the funeral, a horse suddenly emerged from the forest and ran straight toward the coffin: the attendees were in shock when they found out why the animal did this 
At the edge of the village, with quiet sobs and the rustling wind, a funeral was taking place. The polished wooden coffin stood by the freshly dug grave, the soil still damp. A few men were saying prayers, others stood in silence with bowed heads. The atmosphere was heavy and sorrowful.
Suddenly — like a bolt from the blue — the silence was broken by the sound of hooves. Everyone turned.
A horse appeared from the forest. Graceful, strong, with shiny chestnut fur and a white spot on its forehead. It was running straight toward the people, eyes fixed ahead. Panic broke out. Someone screamed, others scattered. They thought it was a wild or frightened animal — maybe even rabid. Someone shouted that it could trample the grave or hurt someone — the horse was charging at full speed.
But ignoring the screams and confusion, the horse kept going — and suddenly came to a sharp stop right in front of the coffin. Not a step closer.
The horse stood still, as if petrified, not blinking or moving. People began slowly coming back, but no one dared to get too close — the animal’s behavior was unpredictable. They tried to shoo it away — with voices, hands, gestures. But the horse seemed to see no one but the coffin. It wasn’t going anywhere.
When it came time to say the final goodbye, the horse did something that left everyone frozen in horror Continued in the first comment 
It lowered its head, let out a soft, mournful whinny — like a long, grieving call. Then it lifted one front hoof and gently tapped on the lid of the coffin.
Once. Then again. People were speechless. The animal repeated the movement, as if trying to “wake up” the one lying inside.
It was calling. It was mourning.
Someone whispered: “It was his horse.” The only true “friend” he had, raised from a foal. They had been together their whole lives — the man fed it, cared for it, healed it, even took it for walks in the worst weather.
Suddenly, it all made sense.
The horse hadn’t come by accident. It had felt it. And it came… to say goodbye.
But what touched everyone the most was that even after the ceremony ended, and everyone had left, the horse remained by the coffin. Quiet, head bowed. No one led it away. It never left.
