La Paloma Ade [English translation]

When the sun sinks into the sea like a red ruby

A song of past times sounds in the hearts

The song, it tells about a person who went aboard

And then he said his farewell words to his beloved:

Don't cry when I don't come back one day!

Search for another guy, don't take it too hard!

And a white dove will then fly to you

Bringing one last greeting from me accross the sea.

Goodbye La Paloma

Like the heaving sea

Life is a matter of coming and going

But who can ever understand it?

Goodbye La Paloma

Like the heaving sea

Life is a matter of coming and going

But who can ever understand it?

Every morning she looked outside to the quay

His boat "La Paloma"

It was never there.

And a white dove flew accross the sea!

Then she know

He'd never come back!

Goodbye La Paloma

Like the heaving sea

Life is a matter of coming and going

But who can ever understand it?

Goodbye La Paloma

Like the heaving sea

Life is a matter of coming and going

But who can ever understand it?
