Adiós
Ted Heath & His Orchestra Lyrics

Adios muchachos, compañeros de mi vida,
Goodbye my friends, my dear companions of life,

Barra querida de aquellos tiempos
Beloved gang of those times

Me toca a mi hoy emprender la retirada,
Today it is my turn to depart and retire,

Debo alejarme de mi buena muchachada.
I must distance myself from my good group of friends.

Adios muchachos. ya me voy y me resigno
Goodbye guys. I'm leaving and I'm resigned.

Contra el destino nadie la talla
Against destiny, no one can stand.

Se terminaron para mi todas las farras,
All the parties are over for me,

Mi cuerpo enfermo no resiste más
My sick body can't take it anymore.

Acuden a mi mente
Memories come to my mind,

Recuerdos de otros tiempos,
Memories from other times,

De los bellos momentos
From the beautiful moments,

Que antaño disfrute,
That I once enjoyed,

Cerquita de mi madre,
Close to my mother,

Santa viejita,
Holy little old lady,

Y de mi noviecita
And of my little girlfriend

Que tanto idolatre
Whom I idolized so much,

Se acuerdan que era hermosa,
Do you remember how beautiful she was,

Mas linda que una diosa
More beautiful than a goddess,

Y que, ebrio yo de amor,
And that, drunk on love,

Le di mi corazón?
I gave her my heart?

Mas el señor, celoso
But the lord, jealous

De sus encantos,
Of her charms,

Hundiendome en el llanto,
Drowned me in tears

Me la llevo
Took her away from me.
