The Soldier's Sweetheart(original) |
Once I had a sweetheart |
A sweetheart brave and true |
His hair was dark and curly |
His loving eyes were blue |
He told me that he loved me |
And he often proved it so |
And he often came to see me |
When the evening sun was low |
But fate took him away |
To this awful German war |
And when he came to say goodbye |
My heart did overflow |
He says, «Goodbye, little darling |
To France I must go» |
He takes the golden finger ring |
And he placed it on my hand |
Said, «Remember me, little darling |
When I’m in no man’s land» |
He promised he would write to me |
That promise he’s kept to |
And when I read this letter, friend |
I pray the war is through |
The second letter I got from him |
The war was just ahead |
The third one, wrote by his captain |
My darling dear was dead |
I’ll keep all of his letters |
I’ll keep his gold ring, too |
And I’ll always live a single life |
For the soldier who was so true |
(traducción) |
Una vez tuve un amor |
Un amor valiente y verdadero |
Su cabello era oscuro y rizado. |
Sus ojos amorosos eran azules. |
me dijo que me amaba |
Y a menudo lo demostró así |
Y a menudo venía a verme |
Cuando el sol de la tarde estaba bajo |
Pero el destino se lo llevó |
A esta terrible guerra alemana |
Y cuando vino a despedirse |
Mi corazón se desbordó |
Él dice: «Adiós, cariño |
A Francia debo ir» |
Toma el anillo de oro en el dedo. |
Y lo puso en mi mano |
Dijo: «Recuérdame, querida |
Cuando estoy en tierra de nadie» |
Me prometió que me escribiría |
Esa promesa que ha cumplido |
Y cuando leo esta carta, amigo |
Rezo para que la guerra termine |
La segunda carta que recibí de él. |
La guerra estaba justo por delante |
El tercero, escrito por su capitán |
Mi querida querida estaba muerta |
Guardaré todas sus cartas. |
Me quedaré con su anillo de oro también. |
Y siempre viviré una vida de soltero |
Para el soldado que era tan verdadero |
