La Última Fiesta
La vida es breve itinerario,
el alba se oscurece
y nos vamos borrando.
Somos los mismos niños
desfigurados por el tiempo;
cerramos los ojos,
los recuerdos nos devuelven
una y otra vez,
donde fuimos felices,
dichosos, inocentes.
Y un día nos abraza
la tierra,
sin pensarlo… llegó: La Última Fiesta
Last Party
Life is a short itinerary,
the dawn darkens
and we fade away.
We are the same children
disfigured by time;
We close our eyes,
The memories come back to us
Again and again
where we were happy,
blissful, innocent.
And one day the earth
embraces us,
without thinking about it... the Last Party has arrived
