Adelita (original)Adelita (translation)
Elle s’appelait Adelita, Her name was Adelita,
C'était l’idole de l’armée de Villa, He was the idol of Villa's army,
Pancho Villa Pancho Villa
C’est elle seule qui faisait rêver It was she alone who made the dream come true
Les vachers et les paysans insurgés Cowherds and Insurgent Peasants
Et c’est après bien des combats And it's after many fights
Qu’on est entré à Chihuahua That we entered Chihuahua
Et au bivouac, pour les soldats, And at the bivouac, for the soldiers,
Elle dansait la cucaracha, She danced the cucaracha,
Elle frémissait du haut en bas, She quivered up and down,
Ils buvaient tous le tequila They were all drinking tequila
On a pendu tous les notaires, We hanged all the notaries,
Les curés et les propriétaires The priests and the owners
Et, pendant qu’ils agonisaient, And, while they were dying,
Nous autres on dansait, on chantait, The rest of us we danced, we sang,
Oui, on chantait la chanson d’Adelita, Yes, we were singing Adelita's song,
L’idole de l’armée de Villa, Villa's army idol,
Pancho Villa, Pancho Villa,
Pancho Villa Pancho Villa
Des trains blindés portaient son nom, Armored trains bore his name,
Pour son caprice sautaient des ponts, For his whim jumped bridges,
De toute la division du Nord From all over the North Division
Oui c'était elle le vrai trésor, Yes she was the real treasure,
L’achat de mitrailleuses Morris, The purchase of Morris machine guns,
Elle l’a négocié avec un English She negotiated it with an Englishman
Qu’on a retrouvé dans la Sierra Found in the Sierra
Étranglé de ses petits bras, ses petits bras, Strangled with his little arms, his little arms,
C’est ainsi qu’on a hérité This is how we inherited
De mitrailleuses de qualité, quality machine guns,
A bon marché, Cheap,
Très bon marché Very cheap
Pancho Villa.PanchoVilla.
