El último verano [English translation]

Our last summer,

hand in hand

towards the beach

we walked, you and I.

It seemed that our affection

would never end,

that I wouldn’t leave you

and you wouldn’t leave me.

And how things happen,

the twists and turns of life,

who would’ve known, who would’ve said

what was going to happen.

Our last summer,

hand in hand,

is something so distant

and I never saw you again.

Our last summer,

I know we were in love

we lived embraced,

we never parted.

Lying on the beach

we talked about our future.

We were confident

that it was a great love.

But something so strange

that they call the destiny,

laid down on our way

the anguish of love.

Our last summer,

hand in hand,

is something so distant

and I never saw you again.

Our last summer,

I wouldn’t be able forget it

and I will remember you

the way you were when I met you.

With that tanned skin

those lovely eyes,

that insistent glance

that was looking for me.

I know there will be sadness,

‘cause I will never forget you,

that not being able to love you

I don’t know what I will do…

Our last summer,

hand in hand,

is something so distant

and I never saw you again.

Our last summer,

hand in hand

towards the beach

we walked, you and I.

It seemed that our affection

would never end,

that I wouldn’t leave you

nor you wouldn’t leave me.

Our last summer,

hand in hand

towards the beach

we walked, you and I.

Lying on the beach

we talked about our future.

We were confident

that it was a great love.
