El Ultimo Caballero
Opera Magna
The Last Knight
After years of war he returns home
Loaded with horrible memories
People gather to see him arrive
Applauding the faithful knight returning from the sea
They want to hear stories of glory
The defeat of evil in my hands
But all I have left after fighting
Is emptiness hitting my will
(When evil reigns in your heart
My face relieved all your pain)
From distant lands you finally returned
My people cheer triumphantly at your arrival
The glory is yours, for you are the last knight
One day I left seeking light
I crossed lands to serve
An ideal that never existed
Leaving death and pain
Wherever I went
(Where is, where did the one who freed us go?
It's you, mortal god, your gift, freedom)
(The sky is yours, bury the memory
Today another reality reigns
Times of glory, fruit of victories
With you a new awakening)
But when he discovered
That miracle amidst horror
He understood that his destiny was not the same as the sun's
Not to die every day to be reborn
But to love, to remain firm in the pain of his skin
(Today he returned
Bringing us his voice)
We want to know
What happened
To how many you gave death
Showing valor
Saving honor
That exists in all your people
Victories in your name
You return with wealth and fame
Why aren't you happy?
Why do you look at the sky and cry?
With a whisper the air woke up
Better times that my soul forgot
My days are a long walk
Cruel destiny, no turning back
I sought a better life
I found it and it vanished
If I look at the sky, memories invade me
Of a face that will never return
All the glory, the desire for victory
Are just dreams of a mortal
Tomorrow a new path
Opens before my feet
Give me strength to continue
Death will come one day
And on its wings maybe
I'll be close to you again
Beside you
Yesterday in your hands you had power
And today an immense void in your being
(Sadness invades your heart
My voice once again soothes your pain)
Everything I believed in
Mocks me today
Cruel destiny
Imposed the path on me
That banished my freedom
A faithful puppet, in its hands I was prey
To its will
A gray horizon
Wept behind me
The greatest triumph is
Being able to look back
You cannot understand
The anguish of my being
The greatest triumph was
To put my soul at its feet
I could win a thousand battles
But there was one I could never
Achieve
I have not been able to defeat destiny
Nor my heart
The last knight
I returned to this land
What I was looking for, I found
