El Tiempo

Time
Has become my worst enemy
Because
Time
Has become my worst enemy
Because
It's taking away the dear things from me

It takes away the youth of my flowery years
And in the end, it's even taking away my own
Oh, it takes away the youth of my flowery years
And in the end, it's even taking away my own

And it already took away the childhood of my children
And today I can't see them playing in the yard
The youth of my beloved elders
Today only remain captured in portraits

Some friends also left
Who were with me when I was a boy
Some friends also left
Who were with me when I was a boy

The world
Is even running out of feelings
Sincere passions
Are moving away from the heart

All the flowers of spring are dying
All because of time's unstoppable race
Oh, all the flowers of spring are dying
All because of time's unstoppable race

And the heartfelt letters are lost
From those loves that once left
The inspiration of my beloved muse
Was once a joyful song, now a lament

And the one who has been the love of my life
Sometimes looks at me with resentment
And the one who has been the love of my life
Sometimes looks at me with resentment

Man... With the desire to sow violence
Forgets... Even about God and His immense tenderness
And all intentions of peace and sanity
Are lost under the shadow of indifference

We waste precious moments
Chasing the money we once promised
And we endure with remorse
The sad nostalgia of times gone by

And the promises that haven't been fulfilled
Are covered by forgetfulness because of time
And the promises that haven't been fulfilled
Are covered by forgetfulness because of time
