| Can you hear the drums Fernando? |
| I remember long ago another |
| starry night like this |
| In the firelight Fernando |
| You were humming to yourself and softly |
| strumming your guitar |
| I could hear the distant drums and sounds |
| of bugle calls were coming from afar |
| Chorus: |
| There was something in the air that night |
| The stars were bright, Fernando |
| They were shining there for you and me |
| for liberty, Fernando |
| Though we never thought that we could lose |
| there's no regret |
| If I had to do the same again |
| I would, my friend, Fernando |
| If I had to do the same again |
| I would, my friend, Fernando |
| They were closer now Fernando |
| Every hour, every minute seemed to last eternally |
| I was so afraid Fernando |
| We were young and full of life |
| and none of us prepared to die |
| And I'm not ashamed to say the |
| roar of guns and cannons |
| Almost made me cry |
| Bridge: |
| x2 |
| Now we're old and grey Fernando |
| And since many years I haven't seen |
| a rifle in your hand |
| Can you hear the drums Fernando? |
| Do you still recall the fateful |
| night we crossed the Rio Grande? |
| I can see it in your eyes how proud |
| you were to fight |
| For freeedom in this land |
