Despedida
1.
vengo a decirle adios a los muchachos
porque pronto mevoy para la guerra
y aunque vaya a pelar en otras tierras
voy a salvar mi derecho,mi patria y mi fe.
2.
ya yo me despedi de mi adorada
y lepedi por DIOS que nunca llore
que recuerde porsiempre mis amores que
yo ya de ella nunca me olvidare.
3.
solo me parte el alma y me condena
que deje tan solita a mi mamá
mi pobre madrecita que esta viva
quien en mi ausencia la recordara.
1. quien me le hara un favor si necesita
quien la socorrera si se enfermara
quien le hablara de mi si preguntara
con este hijo querido quisas volvera
2. quien me le resara si ella se muere
quien pondra una florera en su spultura
quien se condolera de mi amargura si
yo vuelvo y no encuentero a mi mama.
Farewell
1.
I come to say goodbye to the boys
because soon I'm going to war
and even though I'll fight in other lands
I will defend my right, my country, and my faith.
2.
I already said goodbye to my beloved
and asked her by GOD to never cry
to always remember my loves
that I will never forget her.
3.
It breaks my heart and condemns me
that I leave my mom so alone
my poor little mother who is alive
who will remember her in my absence.
1. Who will do her a favor if she needs it
who will help her if she gets sick
who will talk about me if she asks
with this beloved son, maybe she'll return
2. Who will pray for her if she dies
who will put flowers on her grave
who will sympathize with my bitterness
if I return and don't find my mom.
