Lyrics
Si Adelita se fuera con otro
Le seguirias la huella sin cesar
Si es por mar en un buque de guerra
Si es por tierra en un tren militar
Si Adelita quisiera ser tu esposa
Si Adelita fuera tu mujer
Le comprarias un vestido de seda
Para llevarla a bailar al cuartel
Adelita se llama la joven
A quien tu adoras y no puedes olvidar
En el campo tu tienes la rosa
Y con el tiempo la vas a cortar
Y si acaso el muere en campana
Y si su cuerpo a la tierra va a quedar
Adelita por Dios te lo ruego
Que con tus ojos le vayas a llorar
Adelita por Dios te lo ruego
Que con tus ojos le vayas a llorar
Lyrics translation
If Adelita left with someone else
You'd follow in his footsteps all the time.
If it's by sea on a warship
If it's overland on a military train
If Adelita wanted to be your wife
If Adelita were your wife
You'd buy her a silk dress.
To take her dancing to the barracks
Adelita is called the young lady
Whom you adore and cannot forget
In the field you have the Rose
And in time you'll cut it
And if he dies in a bell
And if your body to Earth is going to stay
Adelita by God I beg you
That with your eyes you will cry
Adelita by God I beg you
That with your eyes you will cry
