Nunca llores por mi, mi amor Nunca te lamentes por mí, mi amor Porque mi alma vuela con Dios En la luz de tu amor Sobre las alas de tu amor. BRDG: Rio Nueces and my own San Antonio Long may my children call you home Born in the glens of the Barrow and Liffey Near Balleygarrett on the Irish Sea Blessed by the love of your South Texas family My sweet Thomasa, you've been so good to me CHO This song was inspired by the story of Irish immigrant and Texas historical figure, John Power. The battle of Vinegar Hill was fought "in his backyard" when he was 10. He went on to become one of the most important figures in Texas and Mexican history. He married into a prominent Mexican family, learned the language and the culture. He died in his mid-70's. An English version f the Spanish chorus says: With this kiss that says goodbye never cry for me, my love - never mourn for me, my love For my soul flies ot God on the wings of your love In the light of your love |
