El Vuelo Eterno - Yeison Jiménez Q.E.P.D (Corrido Homenaje)

The news hit hard, like lead in the chest
This gray afternoon, fate dealt us a blow
There was no time for hugs, or a last goodbye
Yeison Jiménez has left us, to meet with God
The clock stopped, the air feels cold
People can't believe it, my relative cries

It was in his little plane, his passion, his faithful companion
Where the engine roared for the last time in the mountains
They say the sky called him, that it was jealous
To see a man so loyal, taking care of his family
So many stories written, so many paths walked
Today he becomes a legend, a remembered warrior

And it's the irony of life, buddy, you used to say
In talks and dreams, you always repeated
If I leave this world, let it be flying high
In my steel bird, making the big leap

Oh, Yeison, you fulfilled your dream, but you left us hurt
You went to eternity, through the lost skies
You no longer touch the ground, today you touch the stars
Your legacy remains, leaving your marks
You were a man of your word, of hard work and honor
Fly free, old man, you no longer feel pain

You came from humble beginnings, never forgot
Humility was your signature, what the people applauded
You helped your friend, you lent a hand to your brother
That's why today the corrido and humanity mourn you
That genuine smile we won't see anymore
But in every flight, there you will appear

The little plane stayed down, but your soul ascended
The prophecy your mouth spoke has come true
It's not a goodbye forever, it's a see you later
Here we keep your name, I promise you, I'm not joking

Oh, Yeison, you fulfilled your dream, but you left us hurt
You went to eternity, through the lost skies
You no longer touch the ground, today you touch the stars
Your legacy remains, leaving your marks
You were a man of your word, of hard work and honor
Fly free, old man, you no longer feel pain

Fly high, Yeison Jiménez
Straight to eternity
In your own little plane, just like you wanted
