Las Bombachas Coloradas

The red panties,
fit snugly on the warrior,
Carmen Vilches marched
and how lovely she is as a cantinera!

Pride of her battalion,
everyone sighs for her,
for her mocking demeanor,
for her courageous and beautiful self.

Carmela has red panties.
Carmela has red panties.
In battles, they seem like my soul, a flag.
In battles, they seem like my soul, a flag.

To take that fort,
she climbs through the outposts,
soldiers exchanging
the red panties.

And over the surrendered fort,
Carmen Viches stands,
her saber stained with blood,
her panties scarlet.

Carmela has red panties.
Carmela has red panties.
In battles, they seem like my soul, a flag.
In battles, they seem like my soul, a flag...

A flag.
