Adios Rios, Adios Fontes

Goodbye Rivers, Goodbye Fountains

Adios Rios, Adios Fontes

Goodbye, rivers; goodbye, fountains;Adiós, ríos; adios, fontes;
Goodbye, small streams;Adios, regatos pequenos;
Goodbye, sight of my eyes:Adios, vista dos meus ollos:
I don't know when we'll see each other again.Non sei cando nos veremos.

My land, my land,Miña terra, miña terra,
Land where I was raised,Terra donde me eu criei,
Beloved garden,Hortiña que quero tanto,
Little fig trees that I planted,Figueiriñas que prantei,

Meadows, rivers, groves,Prados, ríos, arboredas,
Pine forests swayed by the wind,Pinares que move o vento,
Chirping little birds,Paxariños piadores,
House of my happiness,Casiña do meu contento,

Chestnut mill,Muíño dos castañares,
Clear moonlit nights,Noites craras de luar,
Jingling bells,Campaniñas trimbadoras,
From the village church,Da igrexiña do lugar,

Blackberry bushesAmoriñas das silveiras
That I gave to my love,Que eu lle daba ó meu amor,
Paths among the cornfields,Camiñiños antre o millo,
Goodbye, forever goodbye!¡adios, para sempre adios!

Goodbye glory! Goodbye joy!¡adios groria! ¡adios contento!
I leave the house where I was born,¡deixo a casa onde nacín,
I leave the village I knowDeixo a aldea que conozo
For a world I have not seen!Por un mundo que non vin!

I leave friends for strangers,Deixo amigos por estraños,
I leave the meadow for the sea,Deixo a veiga polo mar,
I leave, in the end, all that I love...Deixo, en fin, canto ben quero...
If only I could not leave!...¡quen pudera non deixar!...

Goodbye also, my dear one!...¡adios tamén, queridiña!...
Goodbye forever perhaps!...¡adios por sempre quizais!...
I say this goodbye cryingDígoche este adios chorando
From the edge of the sea.Desde a beiriña do mar.

Do not forget me, my dear one,Non me olvides, queridiña,
If I die of loneliness...Si morro de soidás...
So many leagues out to sea...Tantas légoas mar adentro...
My little house!, my home!¡miña casiña!,¡meu lar!

So many leagues out to sea...Tantas légoas mar adentro...
My little house!, my home!¡miña casiña!,¡meu lar!
