( now the hacienda's dark, the town is sleeping

Now the time has come to part

The time for weeping! )

Vaya con dios, my darling

May God be with you my love . .

Now, the village mission bells are softly ringing

If you listen with your heart you'll hear them singing ( . . . singing! )

Vaya con dios, my darling

May God be with you my love . .

Where ever you may be, I'll be beside you ( . . . beside you! )

Although you're many million miles away!

Each night I'll say a prayer, a prayer to guide you ( . . . to guide you! )

To hasten every lonely hour of every lonely day . .

Now, the dawn is breaking through a gray tomorrow

But the memories we share are there to borrow ( . . . no sorrow! )

Vaya con dios, my darling

May God be with you my love . .

Vaya con dios, my darling

May God be with you my love . .

( now the time has come to say goodbye! )
