Viejo año [English translation]

What's wrong, old year, what's wrong

that you have already packed your bags?

Say me if you've been expelled from your house

Because you're old and useless.

The old things like you are rejected,

More so if they know that another one will arrive,

but don't cry, have a drink

That I'll remember you.

For those moments of happiness

That I enjoyed in your days.

Soon you will leave

Because the fireworks will sound

But I'm as sad as you are,

because today I've no one to embrace me.

(x2)

And I'll drink to your health,

I'll drink, Old Year; I'll drink, Old Year.

(x2)

What's wrong, old year, what's wrong

that you have already packed your bags?

Say me if you've been expelled from your house

Because you're old and useless.

The old things like you are rejected,

More so if they know that another one will arrive,

but don't cry, have a drink

That I'll remember you.

For those moments of happiness

That I enjoyed in your days.

When the twelve bells are sounding

And all has become in joy,

I'll lift up my drink for you,

Hoping that, one day you'll return.

(x2)

And I'll drink to your health,

I'll drink, Old Year; I'll drink, Old Year.

(x2)

What's wrong, old year, what's wrong

that you have already packed your bags?

Say me if you've been expelled from your house

Because you're old and useless.

The old things like you are rejected,

More so if they know that another one will arrive,

but don't cry, have a drink

That I'll remember you.

For those moments of happiness

That I enjoyed in your days.

What's wrong, old year, what's wrong?

(x4)

And I'll drink to your health,

I'll drink, Old Year; I'll drink, Old Year.
