Abba - Fernando

Abba - Fernando Lyrics


Can you hear the drums Fernando?
¿Puedes oir los tambores, Fernando?

I remember long ago another starry night like this
Recuerdo hace tiempo otra noche estrellada como esta

In the firelight Fernando
A la luz del fuego, Fernando

You were humming to yourself and softly strumming your guitar
Estabas cantando sin palabras y suavemente rasgando tu guitarra

I could hear the distant drums
Podia oir los distantes tamnores

And sounds of bugle calls were coming from afar
Y sonidos de golpe de clarín viniendo desde la lejanía

They were closer now Fernando
Estaban más cerca ahora Fernando

Every hour every minute seemed to last eternally
Cada hora cada minuto parecía durar eternamente

I was so afraid Fernando
Tenía tanto miedo, Fernando

We were young and full of life and none of us prepared to die
Éramos jóvenes y llenos de vida y binguno de nosotros preparados para morir

And I'm not ashamed to say
Y no me avergüenzo de decir

The roar of guns and cannons almost made me cry
El estruendo de las pistolas y cañones casi me hicieron llorar

There was something in the air that night
Había algo en el aire esa noche

The stars were bright, Fernando
Las estrellas estaban brillantes, Fernando

They were shining there for you and me
Estaban relucientes para ti y para mí

For liberty, Fernando
Para la libertad, Fernando

Though I never thought that we could lose
Aunque nunca pensé que podríamos perder

There's no regret
No hay excusas

If I had to do the same again
Si tuviera que hacer lo mismo de Nuevo

I would, my friend, Fernando
lo haría, mi amigo, Fernando

Now we're old and grey Fernando
Ahora somos viejos y canosos, Fernando

And since many years I haven't seen a rifle in your hand
Y desde hace muchos años no he visto un rifle en tu mano

Can you hear the drums Fernando?
Do you still recall the fateful night we crossed the Rio Grande?
¿Recuerdas todavía la fatídica noche en que cruzamos el Río Grande?

I can see it in your eyes
Puedo verlo en tus ojos

How proud you were to fight for freedom in this land
Qué orgulloso estabas de luchar por la libertad en esta tierra

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 I 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...
