Lyrics
English: Sad and without joy / The mothers remain / As their sons leave / (Perhaps) never to return / Going to defend / With such zeal / And perhaps they will suffer __________ Spanish: Triste y sin placer / se quedan las madres / al los hijos marcharse / (tal vez) para no volver / van a defender / con tanto el afán / y tal vez sufrirán
