Translation
Adios muchachos
Goodbye boys, fellows of my life,
Loved bar from those times.
It’s my turn, today, to commence the retreat
I have to move away from my good group of young people
Goodbye boys, i go now and i resign,
Nobody beats the destiny.
All the parties/ mockeries are over, for me,
My ill body doesn’t resist anymore.
In my mind come memories from other times,
Of the beautiful moments that i have long ago enjoyed,
Close to my mother, old saint,
And to my beloved one, whom i have so much idolatrised.
They remember that she was beautiful, prettier than a Goddess,
And what a full of verve love, did my heart gave her.
But, God, jealous of her charm,
Took her away, sinking me in cry.
God is the supreme judge, nobody resists in front of Him,
I am now accustomed, to respect His law,
Well, my life ended with His orders
Taking away my mother and my beloved one, also.
Two sincere tears cried at my depart
For the loved bar that never forgot me,
And giving to my friends, my last goodbye
I give them, my blessing, with all my heart.
Goodbye boys, fellows of my life,
Loved bar from those times.
It’s my turn, today, to commence the retreat
I have to move away from my good group of young people
Goodbye boys, i go now and i resign,
Nobody beats the destiny.
All the parties/ mockeries are over for me,
My ill body doesn’t resist anymore.
