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 crowd
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
