Текст и перевод песни Alexandrov Ensemble - Adelita

Adelita

En lo alto de la abrupta serranía
Acampado se encontraba un regimiento
Y una moza que valiente lo seguía
Locamente enamorada del sargento

Popular entre la tropa era Adelita
La mujer que el sargento idolatraba
Porque además de ser valiente, era bonita
Y hasta el mismo coronel la respetaba

Y se oía (se oía)
Que decía (que decía)
Aquel que tanto la quería

Que si Adelita se fuera con otro
La seguiría por tierra y por mar
Si por mar, en un buque de guerra
Si por tierra, en un tren militar

Una noche en que la escolta regresaba
Conduciendo entre sus filas al sargento
Y la voz de una mujer que sollozaba
La plegaria se escuchó en el campamento

Y al oírla, el sargento, temeroso
De perder para siempre a su adorada
Ocultando su emoción bajo el embozo
A su amada le cantó de esta manera

Y se oía (se oía)
Que decía (que decía)
Aquel que tanto la quería

Que si Adelita quisiera ser mi novia
Que si Adelita fuera mi mujer
Le compraría un vestido de seda
Para llevarla a bailar al cuartel

Y después que terminó la cruel batalla
Y la tropa regresó a su campamento
Por las bajas que causara la metralla
Muy diezmado regresaba el regimiento

Recordando aquel sargento sus quereres
Los soldados que volvían de la guerra
Ofreciéndoles su amor a las mujeres
Entonaban este himno de la guerra

Y se oía (se oía)
Que decía (que decía)
Aquel que tanto la quería

Y si acaso yo muero en campaña
Y mi cadáver lo van a sepultar
Adelita, por Dios, te lo ruego
Que con tus ojos me vayas a llorar
Adelita, por Dios, yo te ruego
Que con tus ojos me vayas a llorar

Adelita

High in the rugged mountains
A regiment was encamped,
And a brave girl followed them,
Madly in love with the sergeant.

Popular among the troops was Adelita,
The woman the sergeant idolized,
Because besides being brave, she was beautiful,
And even the colonel respected her.

And it was heard (it was heard)
That he said (that he said)
The one who loved her so much.

That if Adelita went with another,
He would follow her by land and sea,
If by sea, in a warship,
If by land, in a military train.

One night when the escort returned,
Leading the sergeant among its ranks,
And the voice of a woman sobbing,
The prayer was heard in the camp.

And upon hearing it, the sergeant, fearful
Of losing his beloved forever,
Hiding his emotion under his cloak,
Sang to his beloved in this way.

And it was heard (it was heard)
That he said (that he said)
The one who loved her so much.

If Adelita would be my girlfriend,
If Adelita would be my wife,
I would buy her a silk dress,
To take her dancing to the barracks.

And after the cruel battle ended,
And the troops returned to their camp,
Due to the casualties caused by the shrapnel,
The regiment returned very decimated.

Remembering that sergeant's desires,
The soldiers who returned from the war,
Offering their love to women,
They sang this hymn of war.

And it was heard (it was heard)
That he said (that he said)
The one who loved her so much.

And if I happen to die in battle,
And my corpse is going to be buried,
Adelita, for God's sake, I beg you,
To come and cry for me with your eyes.
Adelita, for God's sake, I beg you,
To come and cry for me with your eyes.
