He was under the age when he leaved the country,
To fight with the brave, to lead an army.
From the landfall in the south to the battle of Yorktown,
Still fighting enemies for the american ground.
History won´t die, no you´re still alive,
and you are a part of us, forever in our minds.
History won´t die, no you´re still alive,
and you are a part of us, Lafayette.
Back to this land the two worlds hero,
Was one of those men who stand out from the ground.
He fought for liberty, he fought for people´s rights,
He was loyal till the end, loyal till he died.
History won´t die, no you´re still alive,
and you are a part of us, forever in our minds.
History won´t die, no you´re still alive,
and you are a part of us, Lafayette.
Your glory is all that´s left, but history has been kept,
and time won´t erase traces of you.
Your glory was all you had, but history is still alive,
and time won´t erase traces of you.
History won´t die, no you´re still alive,
and you are a part of us, forever in our minds.
History won´t die, no you´re still alive,
and you are a part of us, Lafayette.
