Paroles et traduction Alfredo Sadel - Adelita

Adelita

ADELITA-ALFREDO SADEL

En lo alto de la abrupta serrania,
Acampado se encotraba 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 a más de ser valiente era bonita,
Que hasta el mismo coronel la respetaba.
Y se oia que decia aquel que tanto la queria;
Que si Adelita se fuera con otro
La seguiria por tierra y por mar;
Si por mar en un buque de guerra,
Y por tierra en un tren militar.

Una noche en que el escolta regresaba
Conduciendo entre sus filas al sargento
Por la voz de una mujer que sollozaba
La plegaria se escucho en el campamento
Y al oirla el sargento temeroso de perder
Para siempre su adora ocultando su emocion
Bajo el esbozo a su amada le canto de esta
Manera y se oia que le decia aquel que tanto
La queria
...

Adelita

ADELITA - ALFREDO SADEL

High in the rugged mountains,
A regiment was encamped,
And a brave young woman 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,
Even the colonel himself respected her.
And he was heard saying, 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,
And by land, in a military train.

One night when the escort returned
Leading the sergeant among its ranks,
By the voice of a woman sobbing
The prayer was heard in the camp
And upon hearing it, the sergeant, fearing to lose
His beloved forever, hiding his emotion
Under the shawl to his beloved, he sang in this
Way and he was heard saying, the one who loved her
So much
