Some people say:
"How great is the Christmastime,
It's the most beautiful time of the year"
But there are others that don't want to remember
The festivities of New Year and Carols. (Bis)
What sadness, sadness and solitude,
Must feel the one who spends the New Year far away,
They don't have, they don't have the joys
That those who stayed on the hills have. (Bis)
For those people, here comes a message of affection
A soulful one, for the souls of the people:
May you forget the bad memories
And be filled with blessings
I wish you all a Happy New Year
And fortune for the ones to come (Bis)
And he who weeps and suffers sorrows
May he forget the Old Year,
For if he has an honest heart
He will see the stars shine in the sky.
There are hearts that become sad
That become sad when December comes,
There are hearts that, when December comes
When december comes, they become cheerful. (Bis)
The time that has passed is worth nothing,
May the memories that hurt us die (Bis)
Christmas
The year ends, and Christmas comes 1
And it's a lovely time for couples,
May they love, adore and kiss each other,
And have peace and love all years. (Bis)
If people wear Gold, and nothing else
Worried about luxuries and apparel
Forgetting about the heavenly money,
That can only be gained by sharing selflessly. (Bis)
Preaching this message I have come
To tell you, with the soul and with greatness:
May you forget the bad memories
And be filled with blessings
I wish you all a Happy New Year
And fortune for the ones to come (Bis)
