Adios Muchachos

Goodbye, Friends

Adios Muchachos

Goodbye, friends, companions of my lifeAdiós muchachos, compañeros de mi vida
My dear crew from those daysBarra querida de aquellos tiempos
It's my turn today to take my leaveMe toca a mi hoy emprender la retirada
I have to step away from my good buddiesDebo alejarme de mi buena muchachada

Goodbye, friends, I'm off and I accept itAdiós muchachos ya me voy y me resigno
Against fate that no one can changeContra el destino que nadie la talla
All the parties are over for meSe terminaron para mi todas las farras
My sick self can't take it anymoreMi ser enfermo no resiste más

Memories of other times come to my mindAcuden a mi mente recuerdos de otros tiempos
Of the beautiful moments I once enjoyedDe los bellos momentos que antaño disfrute
Close to my mother, my dear old ladyCerquita de mi madre mi Santa viejita
And my girlfriend whom I idolized so muchY de mi noviecita que tanto idolatré

Do you remember how she was beautifulSe acuerdan que era hermosa
More lovely than a goddessMás bella que una diosa
And how, drunk on loveY que ebrio yo de amor
I gave her my heart?Le di mi corazón?
But the Lord, jealousPero el señor, celoso
With his charmsCon sus encantos
Drowned me in tearsHundiéndome en el llanto
And took her awaySe la llevó

Goodbye, friends, companions of my lifeAdiós muchachos, compañeros de mi vida
My dear crew from those daysBarra querida de aquellos tiempos
It's my turn today to take my leaveMe toca a mi hoy emprender la retirada
I have to step away from my good buddiesDebo alejarme de mi buena muchachada

Goodbye, friends, I'm off and I accept itAdiós muchachos ya me voy y me resigno
Against fate that no one can changeContra el destino que nadie la talla
All the parties are over for meSe terminaron para mi todas las farras
My sick self can't take it anymoreMi ser enfermo no resiste más

God is the supreme judgeEs Dios el juez supremo
No one can resist himNo hay quien se le resista
I'm used to it nowYa estoy acostumbrado
Respecting his lawSu ley a respetar
For he shattered my lifePues mi vida deshizo
With his commandsCon sus mandatos
By taking my motherAl llevarse a mi madre
And my girlfriend tooY a mi novia también

Two sincere tearsDos lágrimas sinceras
I shed at my departureDerramo en mi partida
For the dear crewPor la barra querida
That never forgot meQue nunca me olvidó
And as I bid my friendsY al darle a mis amigos
My final goodbyeMi adiós postrero
I give them with all my soulLes doy con toda mi alma
My blessingMi bendición
