[00:26.690]Can you hear the drums Fernando?
[00:31.580]I remember long ago another starry night like this
[00:38.540]In the firelight Fernando
[00:43.530]You were humming to yourself
[00:44.550]And softly strumming your guitar
[00:48.570]I could hear the distant drums
[00:50.430]And sounds of bugle calls were coming from afar
[00:54.990]
[00:56.720]They were closer now Fernando
[01:01.580]Every hour every minute seemed to last eternally
[01:07.710]I was so afraid Fernando
[01:12.690]We were young and full of life
[01:15.450]And none of us prepared to die
[01:17.830]And I'm not ashamed to say
[01:19.680]The roar of guns and cannons almost made me cry
[01:24.590]
[01:25.880]There was something in the air that night
[01:29.290]The stars were bright, Fernando
[01:34.490]They were shining there for you and me
[01:37.700]For liberty, Fernando
[01:41.990]Though we never thought that we could lose
[01:45.640]There's no regret
[01:49.620]If I had to do the same again
[01:52.600]I would, my friend, Fernando
[01:59.030]If I had to do the same again
[02:01.600]I would, my friend, Fernando
[02:05.730]
[02:21.530]Now we're old and grey Fernando
[02:25.680]And since many years
[02:27.550]I haven't seen a rifle in your hand
[02:32.590]Can you hear the drums Fernando?
[02:37.590]Do you still recall the fateful night
[02:39.700]We crossed the Rio Grande?
[02:42.280]I can see it in your eyes
[02:44.030]How proud you were to fight for freedom in this land
[02:49.700]
[02:49.970]There was something in the air that night
[02:53.550]The stars were bright, Fernando
[02:58.640]They were shining there for you and me
[03:01.800]For liberty, Fernando
[03:06.660]Though we never thought that we could lose
[03:10.410]There's no regret
[03:13.580]If I had to do the same again
[03:16.920]I would, my friend, Fernando
[03:21.700]
[03:22.550]There was something in the air that night
[03:25.620]The stars were bright, Fernando
[03:31.140]They were shining there for you and me
[03:34.640]For liberty, Fernando
[03:38.620]Though we never thought that we could lose
[03:42.000]There's no regret
[03:45.700]If I had to do the same again
[03:49.030]I would, my friend, Fernando
[03:54.560]Yes, if I had to do the same again
[03:57.830]I would, my friend, Fernando
[04:03.530]If I had to do the same again
[04:06.630]I would, my friend, Fernando
