oddly, dyens has offered FOUR different endings for the final bar, and says
"choisissez votre fin ou mйlangez-les" (literally "choose your ending, or mix
them"). the final bar shown above is the first of four, here were the others ->
2 (ends on the 'wrong' chord, annoyingly common gimmick in tango music ;)

Lyrics
------
A man about 50/60 years old, is seriously ill and is saying goodbye to his
group of friends (barra de amigos). All the song is recalling the good times
gone-by. He especially remembers his mother (santa viejita) and his little
fianceй, both dead and whom he misses without finding comfort. It is,
definitively, a sad quite melancholic goodbye.
---
Adiуs, muchachos, compaсeros de mi vida,
barra querida de aquellos tiempos.
Me toca a mн hoy emprender la retirada,
debo alejarme de mi buena muchachada.
Adiуs, muchachos. Ya me voy y me resigno...
Contra el destino nadie la talla...
Se terminaron para mн todas las farras,
mi cuerpo enfermo no resiste mбs...
Acuden a mi mente
recuerdos de otros tiempos,
de los bellos momentos
que antaсo disfrutй
cerquita de mi madre,
santa viejita,
y de mi noviecita
que tanto idolatrй...
їSe acuerdan que era hermosa,
mбs bella que una diosa
y que ebrio yo de amor,
le di mi corazуn,
mas el Seсor, celoso
de sus encantos,
hundiйndome en el llanto
me la llevу?
Es Dios el juez supremo.
No hay quien se le resista.
Ya estoy acostumbrado
su ley a respetar,
pues mi vida deshizo
con sus mandatos
al robarme a mi madre
y a mi novia tambiйn.
Dos lбgrimas sinceras
derramo en mi partida
por la barra querida
que nunca me olvidу
y al darles, mis amigos,
mi adiуs postrero,
les doy con toda mi alma
mi bendiciуn...
