These Spanish lyric translations are not yet verified.
As I was a-walking down Radcliffe highway
Mientras caminaba por la autopista Radcliffe
A recruiting party came a-beating my way
Un grupo de reclutamiento vino a mi camino
They enlisted me and treated me till I did not know
Me alistaron y me trataron hasta que no lo supe.
And to the Queen's barracks they forced me to go
Y al cuartel de la Reina me obligaron a ir
When first I deserted, I thought myself free
Cuando deserté por primera vez, me sentí libre.
Until my cruel comrade informed against me
Hasta que mi cruel camarada denunció contra mí
I was quickly followed after and brought back with speed
Me siguieron rápidamente y me trajeron de regreso con velocidad.
I was handcuffed and guarded, heavy irons put on me
Me esposaron y me vigilaron, me pusieron pesados hierros.
Court martial, court martial, they help upon me
Corte marcial, corte marcial, me ayudan
And the sentence passed upon me, three hundred and three
Y la sentencia que me dictaron, trescientos tres
May the Lord have mercy on them for their sad cruelty
Que el Señor tenga misericordia de ellos por su triste crueldad.
For now the Queen's duty lies heavy on me
Por ahora, el deber de la Reina pesa sobre mí.
When next I deserted, I thought myself free
La próxima vez que deserté, me sentí libre.
Until my cruel sweetheart informed against me
Hasta que mi cruel amada denunció contra mí
I was quickly followed after and brought back with speed
Me siguieron rápidamente y me trajeron de regreso con velocidad.
I was handcuffed and guarded, heavy irons put on me
Me esposaron y me vigilaron, me pusieron pesados hierros.
Court martial, court martial, then quickly was got
Corte marcial, corte marcial, luego rápidamente fue conseguido
And the sentence passed upon me, that I was to be shot
Y me dictaron la sentencia de que me iban a fusilar.
May the Lord have mercy on them for their sad cruelty
Que el Señor tenga misericordia de ellos por su triste crueldad.
For now the Queen's duty lies heavy on me
Por ahora, el deber de la Reina pesa sobre mí.
Then up rode Prince Albert in his carriage and six
Luego llegó el Príncipe Alberto en su carruaje y seis
Saying 'Where is that young man whose coffin is fixed?
Diciendo: '¿Dónde está ese joven cuyo ataúd está arreglado?
Set him free from his irons and let him go free
Libéralo de sus grilletes y déjalo libre.
For he'll make a good soldier for his Queen and country
Porque será un buen soldado para su reina y su país
