Lyrics
Español
Viejo farolito de mi barrio Centinela de mi amor, Al cantarte hoy mi despedida Embarga mi alma, un gran dolor. Llevo en mi memoria esos momentos Que jamás de mí, se borrarán, Y estarán grabados en mi mente Como un recuerdo sentimental. Farolito, Que alumbraste mi esperanza, Yo te miro en lontananza Con ferviente adoración. No le digas, Que me has visto en su ventana, De la noche a la mañana Suspirando por su amor. Farolito, Que guiaste mi sendero, Vos sabés cuánto te quiero Y me muero de dolor. Yo me alejo, viejo compañero Con angustias en mi corazón, Entonando como un juramento La melodía de esta canción. Quiero que esta música de ensueño Sea un alivio en mi sufrir, Y en los largos ratos de tristeza Traiga la calma en mi vivir.

Old streetlight of my neighborhood Sentinel of my love, As I sing my farewell to you today My soul is filled with a great pain. I carry in my memory those moments That will never be erased from me, And they will be engraved in my mind As a sentimental memory. Little lantern, That you lit up my hope, I look at you in the distance With fervent adoration. Don't tell him, That you saw me at her window, Overnight Sighing for her love. Little lantern, That you guided my path, You know how much I love you And I'm dying of pain. I walk away, old companion With anguish in my heart, Intoning like an oath The melody of this song. I want this dreamy music To be a relief in my suffering, And in the long times of sadness To bring calm into my life.
