Mes de Mayo

Month of May
Spring
When the poor soldiers
March off to war

Some cry and others sing
(Cry, sing)
And others are filled with sorrow

The soldier in the middle
Is the one who carries the most sorrow
The captain asks him
The captain asks him
Why do you carry so much sorrow?

Why do you carry so much sorrow
If it's for your father or your mother
Or is it for coming to war?

It's not for father or mother
(It's not for father or mother)
Nor is it for coming to war
It's for my beloved girlfriend
It's for my beloved girlfriend
That I'm dying not to see her
