Atravezando A Todo Limite
Almafuerte
Crossing To The Limit
To the mountains of the Argentine northwest
you headed, brother,
leaving forever engraved
in my heart that strong embrace.
Where you showed your intimate consciousness
of an impeccable warrior
marching steadfast to fulfill his destiny
owing nothing to anyone.
Time passed and without knowing anything about you,
we ran to find you.
I dreamt of seeing you free in the sunlight
and I know you achieved it.
But only those vast expanses were witnesses.
A sad story to see us defeated
and return without finding you,
having to return.
To face the faces of people who don't understand
and who justify their ignorance with mockery,
forgetting that the nightmare
tends to become reality, and then what happens?
What is happening?
May the wind carry this song to your ears
bridging distances,
and may you see in your star that I am still standing.
It's my hope.
I keep trying to walk the path
for which you prepared me.
And although it has become very tough without you,
I will not let myself be defeated.
I won't fail you!
It's my selfishness rebelling against losing you
and my soul not knowing what became of you.
My brother, I can only tell you
that I will never forget you.
Keep that in mind.
