Ese Cádiz Centenario

It is said that already in the times of Tiberius
in Gades there was a leading team
that every Sunday of the Empire
gathered at the Stadium
to the Roman football fans.
And the Moor felt like living
during the Independent Caliphate
that Balompédica Gadir
more famous than the Emir
and the Kings of the East

What I come to refer to
is that my team is something extraordinary
not a hundred, not fifteen hundred, not two thousand
Cádiz can boast
of being a three-thousand-year-old club.

Blue like the water is my color
and yellow like the sun
that sets in La Caleta,
feeling Cádiz is not a hobby
it is much more than a passion
or the delirium of a poet.
And I don't care if it's not a champion
or always has the ball
but it moves it with grace.
Blessed are the colors of my club
where Mágico is a god
and the South Stand the aristocracy.

The press of the fifth millennium will say
our misfortune is finally over
with this new and designer team
the league of galaxies will no longer be a dream.
If Júpiter fulfilled the rite
defeating Pluto by a landslide
and meteorites rain at Carranza
and we start with a little point
the league is already won.

What I come to refer to
is that my team is something extraordinary
not a hundred, not fifteen hundred, not two thousand
Cádiz can boast
of interplanetary pedigree.
