Lyrics of Hasta Siempre Comandante - Maurizio Camardi, Robert Wyatt

Hasta Siempre Comandante (original)

Aprendimos a quererte
desde la historica altura
donde el sol de tu bravura
le puso cerco a la muerte.
Aqui se queda la clara,
la entrenable transparencia
de tu querida presencia
Comandante Che Guevara.
Tu mano gloriosa y fuerte
sobre la historia dispara
cuando todo Santa Clara
se despierta para verte.
Aqui se queda la clara,
la entrenable transparencia
de tu querida presencia
Comandante Che Guevara.
Vienes quemando la brisa
con soles de primavera
para plantar la bandera
con la luz de tu sonrisa
Aqui se queda la clara,
la entrenable transparencia
de tu querida presencia
Comandante Che Guevara.
Tu amor revolucionario
te conduce a nueva empresa
donde esperan la firmeza
de tu brazo libertario.
Aqui se queda la clara,
la entrenable transparencia
de tu querida presencia
Comandante Che Guevara.
Seguiremos adelante
como junto a ti seguimos,
y con Fidel te decimos:
!Hasta siempre, Comandante!
Aqui se queda la clara,
la entrenable transparencia
de tu querida presencia
Comandante Che Guevara.

(translation)

We learn to love you
from the historic height
Where the sun of your bravery
He put a fence around death.
Here is the light,
the trainable transparency
of your dear presence
Commander Che Guevara.
Your glorious and strong hand
about history shoot
when all Santa Clara
wakes up to see you.
Here is the light,
the trainable transparency
of your dear presence
Commander Che Guevara.
You come burning the breeze
with spring suns
to plant the flag
with the light of your smile
Here is the light,
the trainable transparency
of your dear presence
Commander Che Guevara.
your revolutionary love
leads you to new company
where they wait for firmness
of your libertarian arm.
Here is the light,
the trainable transparency
of your dear presence
Commander Che Guevara.
we'll move on
as together with you we continue,
and with Fidel we tell you:
Goodbye, Commander!
Here is the light,
the trainable transparency
of your dear presence
Commander Che Guevara.
