Una Leyenda Nunca Muere Lyrics English Translation by Neto Peña
They say nothing lasts forever
I believe the soul is eternal
That words are everlasting, yeah
If promises are honest, they’re forever
From heaven, with your voice, you paralyzed the city
Legends never die, but perhaps
I have to let you go
So you can fly free
And damn, it’s going to hurt me
It’s going to hurt without you
I have to let you go
The show must go on
I’ll have to content myself with memories and knowing (that)
A legend never dies
A legend is commonly known
For having power and fame, being someone recognized
An icon, an idol, a being never before born
But you were much more than just hidden talent
You were an example of perseverance and values
You painted our world with laughter in colors
You always said, “Hey, man, better times will come”
You not only came into the world, you left your mark on its hearts
I can still see you with a microphone in your hand on top of your truck
Driving the crowd crazy
Your daughters on your back and a huge smile on your face
Your jokes, your songs, your loyalty to your crew
Your first paychecks, your excitement buying clothes
Exemplary as a father, a husband, a friend
Reserved, unbreakable, tough as a rock
Rest in peace, maybe one day I’ll see you again
I have to let you go
So you can fly free
And damn, it’s going to hurt me
It’s going to hurt without you
I have to let you go
The show must go on
I’ll have to content myself with memories and knowing (that)
A legend never dies
They say nothing lasts forever
I believe the soul is eternal
That words are everlasting, yeah
If promises are honest, they’re forever
A legend never dies
