|
Can you hear the drums Fernando?
|
I remember long ago another starry night like this
|
|
In the firelight, Fernando
|
You were humming to yourself, and softly strumming your guitar
|
I could hear the distant drums and sounds of bugle calls were coming from afar
|
|
They were closer now, Fernando
|
Every hour, every minute seemed to last eternally
|
|
I was so afraid, Fernando
|
We were young and full of life, and none of us prepared to die
|
And I'm not ashamed to say the roar of guns and cannons almost made me cry
|
|
There was something in the air that night
|
The stars were bright, Fernando
|
They were shining there for you and me, for liberty, Fernando
|
|
Though, I never thought that we could lose, there's no regret
|
If I had to do the same again, I would my friend, Fernando
|
If I had to do the same again, I would my friend, Fernando
|
|
Now we're old and grey, Fernando
|
Since many years, I haven't seen a rifle in your hand
|
|
Can you hear the drums Fernando?
|
Do you still recall the fateful night we crossed the Rio Grande?
|
I can see it in your eyes how proud you were to fight for freedom in this land
|
|
There was something in the air that night
|
The stars were bright, Fernando
|
They were shining there for you and me, for liberty, Fernando
|
|
Though, I never thought that we could lose, there's no regret
|
If I had to do the same again, I would my friend, Fernando
|
|
There was something in the air that night
|
The stars were bright, Fernando
|
They were shining there for you and me, for liberty, Fernando
|
|
Though, we never thought that we could lose, there's no regret
|
If I had to do the same again, I would my friend, Fernando
|
Yes, if I had to do the same again, I would my friend, Fernando
|
