Adelita

If Adelita went with another
I would follow her by land or by sea
If by sea, on a warship
If by land, on a military train

And if I die in the war
And if my body remains in the mountains
Adelita, I beg you in God's name
Not to cry for me

If Adelita wanted to be my wife
If Adelita were already my woman
I would buy her a silk dress
To take her in a carriage to the barracks

And if I die in the war
And if my body remains in the mountains
Adelita, I beg you in God's name
Not to cry for me

If Adelita wanted to be my wife
If Adelita were already my woman
I would buy her a silk dress
To take her in a carriage to the barracks

If Adelita went with another
I would follow her by land or by sea
If by sea, on a warship
If by land, on a military train
