Se van perdiendo en el tiempo mis años
My years are being lost in time
Se van quedando muy lejos
They stay far away
Ya no me lleva mi padre la mano
My father no longer takes my hand
Solamente sus consejos
Only your advice
Viven en mi los recuerdos de niño
The memories of a child live in me
Cuando una estrella deseaba
When a star wished
Como recuerdo a mi padre
How i remember my father
Que con eso sonreía
That with that he smiled
Mientras mi madre miraba
While my mother watched
Años que vienen despacio, primero
Years that come slowly, first
Con que lentitud avanzan
How slowly they advance
Como quería ser grande, recuerdo
How I wanted to be big, I remember
Para no quedarme en casa
To not stay at home
Y acompañar a mi padre
And accompany my father
Muy lejos
Far away
Tal vez hasta el fin del mundo
Maybe until the end of the world
Porque mi padre era fuerte
Because my father was strong
Era muy inteligente
He was very smart
Era mejor que ninguno
Was better than none
Hoy ya no quiero que pasen
Today I don't want them to pass
Los años
The years
Porque mi padre ya está viejo
Because my father is old
Se han cubierto de arrugas
Have been covered in wrinkles
Sus manos
Her hands
Y de nieve sus cabellos
And her hair with snow
Señor detén el tiempo te pido
Lord stop the time I ask you
Porque tu puedes hacerlo
Because you can do it
Porque yo en verdad no entiendo
Because I really don't understand
Dios mío
OMG
Porque se nos va lo bueno
Because the good is going away
Cuando se cansen tus pasos yo quiero
When your steps get tired I want
Ser quien los cuide
Be the one to take care of them
Mientras tanto dame el brazo
Meanwhile give me your arm
Y vamos a ver que vas a decirme
And let's see what you are going to tell me
