Adiós Juventud
Jaime Roos
Goodbye Youth
Goodbye, Youth
I can't hide the gray hairs
Goodbye, Youth, the desire
To go out again
To the march truck
To grappa and lemon
I have one verse left to say
Before leaving
Goodbye Heart
Goodbye Carnival
(Goodbye Heart)
Time doesn't pass in vain
Goodbye Barrio Sur, the hand
Of a few was cruel
They were not convinced
(They were not convinced)
The borocotó
(Borocotó)
A new cemetery they see
They think it's fine
Goodbye to Cuareim
Goodbye to the slope
(Goodbye Heart)
The body no longer responds
Goodbye Youth where
Am I going to go if you're not here
I look like a Pierrot
(I look like a Pierrot)
How sad it is
(Sad it is)
With the memory of a disguise
That is no longer useful
Goodbye Marabou
Goodbye Carnival
(Goodbye Youth)
I promise to return whole
Goodbye Carnival I hope
To go through you again
Sing to the rigor
(Sing to the rigor)
A new couplet
(New couplet)
Until the roll of the drum
Marks another ending
Goodbye Carnival
It seems unbelievable the things I see
Through the streets of Montevideo
