On this letter a great flood of tears will fall
But it's better a last farewell to recall
It's been the sentence: I'll be tomorrow shot down
Feel no repentance 'cause more courageous I've grown

I'm out of breath
There's no more time
It's coming death
To pull the crime

Unconcerned death, my dear wife
Doesn't take out but gives more life
Don't come to me or I shall break down
I must gain honour and renown
Forever, no matter the pain
I'll be the First Lance of Spain

'Til I die my last sign is yours

Just your vision would take my will power away
My decision: together we mustn't stay
My last endeavor showing a still countenance
Leads me forever to be the Spanish First Lance

I'm out of breath,
There's no more time
It's coming death
To pull the crime.

Unconcerned death, my dear wife
Doesn't take out but gives more life
Don't come to me or I shall break down
I must gain honour and renown
Forever, no matter the pain
I'll be the First Lance of Spain

Yours 'til death, my last breath

Unconcerned death, my dear wife
Doesn't take out but gives more life
Don't come to me or I shall break down
I must gain honour and renown
Forever, no matter the pain
I'll be the First Lance of Spain

'Til I die my last sign is yours
