Despedimiento del angelito

Victor Jara Victor Jara

Farewell to the Little Angel

Glory I leave in memory,
and these reasons right here,
for those who won’t cry for me,
because it takes away my glory.
You, like a mother, dear lady,
ask God to keep you safe,
I’m off with the high father
and to God’s kingdom above.
I say this from the heart
and goodbye, my dear mother.

Glory, I tell God
and may He be good to me
because up in heaven too
we’ll see each other again.
And in this swift moment
I’ve fulfilled my destiny,
purified and divine
and into glory I will enter.
And before I leave, I’ll say
and goodbye, goodbye, cruel world.

Virgin of ours and relatives,
I say goodbye to you all,
my time has come to an end
and death is with me now.
Fortunate were my fortunes,
greater was some sorrow,
I swear I’ll confess now,
I’m off, I’m off, eternal father,
I’ve forgotten about hell
that knows all the evils.
