Lyrics
Acaso no lloré por él pensando que jamás se fue yo siempre escucharé su canto susurro que me vio crecer. La vida le negó, tal vez, un fin, como al nogal, de pie, queriendo proteger sus frutos para no dejar de ser. Chau, viejo Juan, que ya no estás en mis mañanas dele fumar, junto a las rosas más tempranas. Chau, viejo Juan, compañero, padre, amigo. Queda para siempre tu bondad. Chau, viejo Juan, chau, viejo Juan, chau, mi querido Juan. El tiempo no le dio vejez y a todo le tenía fe porque era un flaco corajudo que nunca le temió al perder. La muerte lo quitó, ya sé, su intensa forma de querer y su mirada confidente que jamás olvidaré.
English translation
Did I not weep for him thinking that he never left I will always listen to his song whisper that saw me grow up. Life denied him, perhaps, an end, like the walnut tree, standing, wanting to protect its fruits so as not to cease to be. Goodbye, old Juan, you are no longer in my mornings give him a smoke, next to the earliest roses. Goodbye, old Juan, companion, father, friend. Your kindness remains forever. Goodbye, old Juan, farewell, old Juan, goodbye, my dear Juan. Time did not give him old age and he had faith in everything because he was a brave skinny man who was never afraid of losing. Death took him away, I know, his intense way of loving and his confident gaze that I will never forget.
