Adelita, 'tis time we remembered that only one hour more and I must go
To the hills of Sierra Del Prado for the glory of our Mexico

Chorus:
Oh, Adelita, promise you'll remember the happy hours that now have long gone by
Oh, Adelita, we'll share these tender moments Adelita, it hurts me when you cry

Adelita, the time is here to leave you Once again, now, I'll kiss away your tears
In my heart I will hold you forever and our love, it will live through the years

(Chorus)
