Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Now the time has come to part, the time for weeping,
Vaya Con Dios, my darling,
May God be with you, my love.
Now the village mission bells are softly ringing,
If you listen with your heart, you'll hear them singing.
Now the time has come to part, the time for weeping,
May God be with you, my love.
Wherever you may be, I'll be beside you,
Although you're many million dreams away.
Each night I 'll say a prayer, a prayer to guide you,
To hasten every lonely hour of every lonely day.
Now the dawn is breaking through a gray tomorrow,
But the memories we share are there to borrow.
Vaya Con Dios, my darling,
May God be with you, my love.

Now the hacienda's dark, the town is sleeping,
The night is solemn, and everyone is fast asleep in their homes.
Now the time has come to part, the time for weeping,
The moment to say goodbye has arrived, and our hearts are filled with sadness.
Vaya Con Dios, my darling,
Go with God, my beloved,
May God be with you, my love.
May God be with you and guide you through your journey.
Now the village mission bells are softly ringing,
The church bells in the town are ringing with a gentle melody,
If you listen with your heart, you'll hear them singing.
If you listen closely with your heart, you can hear the music these bells inspire.
Wherever you may be, I'll be beside you,
No matter where you are, I'll always be there for you,
Although you're many million dreams away.
Even if we're separated by great distances, our spirits remain united.
Each night I'll say a prayer, a prayer to guide you,
Every night I will pray for you and ask God to protect and guide you,
To hasten every lonely hour of every lonely day.
To make time fly by faster and lessen the loneliness that you might feel.
Now the dawn is breaking through a gray tomorrow,
A new day is beginning, but it seems uncertain and bleak,
But the memories we share are there to borrow.
But the moments we spent together are always there to bring us comfort and joy.
Vaya Con Dios, my darling,
May God be with you, my beloved,
May God be with you, my love.
May God be with you and fill your heart with peace and love.
