Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Algo Le Pasa A Mi Héroe (Canción A Mi Papá) by Victor Manuelle from Spanish to English.
Algo le pasa a mi héroe, algo le pasa
Something is happening to my hero, something is happening
Tan solo veo un vacío en su mirada
I only see emptiness in his gaze
Algo le pasa a mi héroe, no dice nada
Something is happening to my hero, he doesn't say anything
No repite las historias que me contaba
He doesn't repeat the stories he used to tell me
Algo le pasa a mi héroe, perdió sus fuerzas
Something is happening to my hero, he lost his strength
Ya no pronuncia mi nombre, no lo recuerda
He no longer pronounces my name, he doesn't remember it
Ni su cuerpo ni su mente son lo que era
Neither his body nor his mind are what they used to be
Pareciera andar flotando por las estrellas
He seems to be floating among the stars
Sin querer entró en un mundo
Unintentionally, he entered a world
Donde no hay penas ni glorias
Where there are no sorrows or glories
Cada paso que va dando
Every step he takes
Va borrando una memoria
Erases a memory
Veo que el árbol de su vida
I see that the tree of his life
Poco a poco se deshoja
Slowly loses its leaves
Y aquel roble que era fuerte
And that oak tree that was strong
Con los años se desploma
With the years, it collapses
Yo le hablo de nosotros
I talk to him about us
De las cosas que vivimos
About the things we experienced
Que tengo su mismo nombre
That I have the same name as him
Y que llevo su apellido
And that I carry his last name
Que me ha dado dos hermanos
That he has given me two siblings
Que le vivo agradecido
That I am grateful to him for
Porque ha sido el mejor padre
Because he has been the best father
Que pueda tener un hijo
That a child could have
Él me escucha pero no me habla
He listens to me but doesn't speak to me
Algo le pasa a mi héroe, donde se iría
Something is happening to my hero, where did he go
Aquel que fuera mi ejemplo, que era mi guía
The one who was my example, who was my guide
Se ha convertido en un niño, quién lo diría
He has become a child, who would have thought
Ahora nos toca cuidarlo como él lo hacia
Now it's our turn to take care of him like he did for us
Sin querer entró en un mundo
Unintentionally, he entered a world
Donde no hay penas ni glorias
Where there are no sorrows or glories
Cada paso que va dando
Every step he takes
Va borrando una memoria
Erases a memory
Veo que el árbol de su vida
I see that the tree of his life
Poco a poco se deshoja
Slowly loses its leaves
Y aquel roble que era fuerte
And that oak tree that was strong
Con los años se desploma
With the years, it collapses
Y mi madre le dedica
And my mother dedicates to him
Cada hora de su día
Every hour of her day
Manteniendo la promesa
Keeping the promise
De amarlo toda la vida
To love him for the rest of her life
Y los nietos van creciendo
And the grandchildren are growing up
Se hace grande la familia
The family is growing
Y si sus ojos hablaran
And if his eyes could speak
Seguramente diría
He would surely say
Que nos conoce todavía
That he still knows us
Algo le pasa a mi héroe, algo le pasa
Something is happening to my hero, something is happening
