El Rapto

The Abduction
Who is that girl carrying the guerrilla fighter
Secure on the back of her dark horse?
Who is that cheerful and loving girl
Like a little dove, like a gongolona?
The valleys, rivers, and ravines answered
Along with all the mountain birds
She is the most elegant, she is the most beautiful
She is Nicaragua, the little Nicaraguan girl
Who is that dark-haired girl with loose hair in the wind
Mozote spike stuck to the guerrilla fighter?
Who is that fragrant and transparent girl
Like a little stream of clear spring water?
The valleys, rivers, and ravines answered
Along with all the mountain birds
She is the most elegant, she is the most beautiful
She is Nicaragua, the little Nicaraguan girl
The valleys, rivers, and ravines answered
Along with all the mountain birds
She is the most elegant, she is the most beautiful
She is Nicaragua, the little Nicaraguan girl
