çok genel bir latin erkeği ismi. bir de abba'nın bu isimde leziz bir şarkısı vardır. buyrun bunlar da sözleri:
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
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
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 i never thought that we could lose
there's no regret
if i had to do the same again
i would, my friend, fernando
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 frightful night we crossed the rio grande?
i can see it in your eyes
how proud you were to fight for freedom in this land
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 i never thought that we could lose
there's no regret
if i had to do the same again
i would, my friend, fernando
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 i never thought that we could lose
there's no regret
if i had to do the same again
i would, my friend, fernando
yes, if i had to do the same again
i would, my friend, fernando...

puedes escuchar, fernando?
me recuerda tiempo atrás,
estrellas y una noche allá
en la lumbre azul, fernando,
tarareabas tu canción
con ese suave guitarrear
yo podía escuchar
esos tambores con un sordo redoblar
se acercaban más, fernando
y el momento que pasaba parecía eternidad
y sentí temor, fernando
por la vida y juventud nadie pensaba en morir
y no siento hoy verguenza al
confesar que tuve ganas de llorar
algo había alrededor, quizá,
de claridad, fernando,
que brillaba por nosotros dos
en protección, fernando
no pensábamos jamás perder,
ni echar atrás
si tuviera que volverlo a hacer,
lo haría ya, fernando
si tuviera que volverlo a hacer,
lo haría ya, fernando
la vejez llegó, fernando
y con ella una paz
que hoy logramos disfrutar
se durmió el tambor, fernando
pareciera que fué ayer
que lo vivimos tú y yo,
y en tus ojos veo aún
aquel orgullo que refleja tu valor
algo había alrededor, quizá,
de claridad, fernando,
que brillaba por nosotros dos,
en protección, fernando
no pensábamos jamás perder,
ni echar atrás
si tuviera que volverlo a hacer,
lo haría ya, fernando
algo había alrededor, quizá,
de claridad, fernando,
que brillaba por nosotros dos,
en protección, fernando
no pensábamos jamás perder,
ni echar atrás
si tuviera que volverlo a hacer,
lo haría ya, fernando
y si tuviera que volverlo a hacer,
lo haría ya fernando
si tuviera que
Önemli bir abba şarkısı...bir özgürlük savaşçısı x isimli latin ülkesinin özgürlüğü icin savaşmış, savaşı kaybetmiştir, ve savaş esnasında bi batılı kadınla aşk yaşamış, ve yıllar sonra o kadın fernando'ya bu şarkıyı yazmıştır (şarkının hikayesi öyledir)...
Şarkıda bahsedilen x ülkesinin meksika olması çok mümkündür, kimseyle papaz olmamak için işin orası şarkıda açık bırakılmıştır.
