Al observar que su hijo se marchaba
Y escuchar de su boca las palabras
“Ya está viejo y en la casa solo estorba
Y con él mi vida solo es zozobra
Su pensión servirá para pagar
Aquí le tratarán mejor que yo
Tendrá amigos, alguien con quien hablar
Y no alguien que de él ya se alejó”
Esas eran las palabras que decía
Aquel hombre al director del ancianato
Donde a su padre dejaba en aquel día
Y el hombre viejo al oírlo estalla en llanto
Preguntábase a sí mismo el pobre anciano
Por qué ahora me desecha así tan cruel
Si estos callos que adornan hoy mis manos
Contra todo, siempre han luchado por él
Todo el tiempo que ha buscado en mí consuelo
Lo ha encontrado, sin ninguna condición
Si por él no he reparado en desvelos
Por qué ahora, no me presta ni atención
Nunca le ha faltado el alimento
Ni el cobijo ni educación
Pregúntase con tristeza y lamento
Entonces ¿cuál es la razón?
Salada lluvia derritiendo está la nieve
Que cubre sus agotadas sienes
Que sorpresas que la vida a veces tiene
Triste llanto en un mar de decepciones
Con lamentos y algunas risas fingidas
La tristeza derrotada y la soledad vencida
Ya de aquel que se marchó, no hay noticias recibidas
El anciano se adaptó, a nueva forma de vida
Tiempo después entre bares, un hombre parece alegre
Pero mudo absorto y de rodillas, solitario al cielo implora
“Aunque solo sea un día, ¡oh Dios! permíteme verle
Junto a él hay yo pudiera, poder pasar muchas horas
Quiero pedirle perdón, por esa abrupta partida
Sepa mi vida vacía ha sido desde aquel tiempo
Muy caro ya he pagado por mi falta cometida
Con él deseo recordar, nuestros mejores momentos”
Cual grande fue su angustia, cual grande el dolor de aquel
Que años lejos de su padre, al que un día abandonó
Y por fin desde tan lejos, consiguió volver a él
Mas llegando al ancianato, hay que pena, no lo vio
Una voz a sus espaldas, apiádese de su ser
Le dijo aún no ha partido, pero está en el hospital
Tal vez aun logres llegar, corre, ve pronto con él
Que no ha hecho otra cosa, que volverte a preguntar
El perdón pudo pedirse, el perdón pudo entregarse
No hay rencor, solo esperanza, confianza por recobrar
Sonrisas entre sollozos y abrazos hasta fundirse
Promesa sellada en llanto, que nunca vuelva a pasar
La casa que antes fue triste, sola y luces apagadas
Hoy rodeada está de flores y muy bien iluminada
Pues en ella hay dos señores, que ríen a carcajadas
Padre e hijo que festejan, ya su falta perdonada.
La falta perdonada

Watching her son leave
And hear the words from his mouth
"He is already old and in the house he only interferes
And with him my life is only anxiety
His pension will be used to pay
Here they will treat him better than I
He will have friends, someone to talk to
And not someone who has already moved away from him "
Those were the words that he said
That man to the director of the nursing home
Where he left his father that day
And the old man when he hears it bursts into tears
The poor old man asked himself
Why now he rejects me so cruel
If these calluses that adorn my hands today
Against everything, they have always fought for him
All the time that he has looked to me for comfort
He has found it, without any conditions
If for him I have not noticed sleeplessness
Why now, he doesn't pay attention to me
He has never lacked food
Neither shelter nor education
He ask himself with sadness and regret
So what is the reason?
Salty rain is melting the snow
That covers his exhausted temples
What surprises that life sometimes has
Sad crying in a sea of disappointments
With wailing and some fake laughs
The sadness defeated and the loneliness defeated
Already from the one who left, there is no news received
The old man adapted to a new way of life
Later between bars, a man seems happy
But dumb absorbed and on his knees, lonely to the sky he implores
“Even if it's just a day, oh my God let me see him
Next to him if I could, be able to spend many hours
I want to apologize for that abrupt departure
That he knows my empty life has been since that time
Very expensive I have already paid for my fault committed
With him I want to remember our best moments”
How great was his anguish, how great was his pain
What years away from his father, whom he one day he abandoned
And finally from so far, he got back to him
But arriving at the old man, there is a pity, he did not see it
A voice behind him, it having mercy on his being
He told her he still hasn't left, but he's in the hospital
Maybe you can still get there, run, go with him soon
That he has done nothing but ask you again
Forgiveness could be asked, forgiveness could be delivered
There is no resentment, only hope, confidence to regain
Smiles between sobs and hugs until they melt
Promise sealed in tears, never to happen again
The house that was sad before, alone and lights out
Today it is surrounded by flowers and very well lit
Well, in it there are two gentlemen, who laugh out loud
Father and son who celebrate, and their fault forgiven
The fault forgiven
