Far away in a Spanish dungeon A Cuban soldier lay Slowly dyin' from the torture Inflicted day by day
He begged to send a message But this kindness was denied So he called his comrades to him And told his story 'ere he died
When Cuba gains her freedom And the Spaniards cease to reign There's a loved one on that island I will never see again
Oh, find her for me, comrades And tell her you were by my side And I bid you take this message To a soldier's promised bride
'Tis the same old story, comrades Love weeps when duty is done When Cuba was struggling for her freedom I was ordered to my gun
Though I'm a captain dyin' The struggle will soon be o'er Tell her I said to meet me Where the soldiers fight no more
When Cuba gains her freedom And the Spaniards cease to reign There's a loved one on that island I will never see again
Oh, find her for me, comrades And tell her you were by my side And I bid you take this message To a soldier's promised bride
And I bid you take this message To a soldier's promised brideTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
