Lyrics & Translation
Son of my heart
The years are weighing on me
My heart has grown tired
Perhaps the moment is near
When I will have to say goodbye
When you miss your father
Who went to heaven with God
If you wanted to hug him
Or show him your love
The kisses you give to your son
I will receive them up there
If one day you remember the old man
Who worried about you
If you wanted a kiss from him
And I am no longer here
Ask your mother for one
Of the many I gave her
Look where you are walking
So your foot doesn't slip
Try to follow my steps
Where I walked firmly
And avoid stumbling on stones
With which I tripped
When I am no longer with you
Who kissed your cheeks
The one who sometimes hugged you
And sometimes scolded you
Remember it was your father
The man who loved you the most
