Why - did he go away, if he'd only stayed, with us. Why - did they hurt him so, why did he have to go, go - way.
Refrain: El Cantor he'll live for evermore, for we shall hold his banner high in the wind as if he'd always been smiling, urging us always on. For I know El Cantor he'll live for evermore, for we shall sing his songs so clear, and his melodies are our memories of his faith and his love.
