Love, two lights came to my balcony

Asking in my ear

Why are you crying?

I responded with the sadness of my heart

It's because of the woman I miss the most

And I don't know if I can see her again

And at the same time his lips kiss

Being by your side I can do it

But I walk away and everything changes, what a regret!

You are the light that illuminates my life

I ask you not to go out

You know distance is our friend

He is the one who taught us to endure

So much desire for kisses and caresses

And when borders limit both of us

Yes, I am your sheet and you my pillow

Tell me, how do I forget you?, (Tell me, how do I forget you?)

Tell me, how do I leave you?, (Tell me, how do I leave you?)

If it is with your affection that you and I will be eternal

Tell me, how do I forget you?, (Tell me, how do I forget you?)

Tell me, how do I leave you?, (Tell me, how do I leave you?)

If it is with your affection that you and I will be eternal

Paola de la Peña

That's how I love you, my life

Paulina Cabello

The queen of the morre

I don't know if I can see you again

And at the same time your lips kiss

Being by your side I can do it

But I walk away and everything changes, what a regret!

You are the light that illuminates my life

I ask you, don't go out

You know distance is our friend

He is the one who taught us to endure

So much desire for kisses and caresses

And when borders limit both of us

Yes, I am your sheet and you my pillow

Tell me, how do I forget you?, (Tell me, how do I forget you?)

Tell me, how do I leave you?, (Tell me, how do I leave you?)

If it is with your affection that you and I will be eternal

Tell me, how do I forget you?, (Tell me, how do I forget you?)

Tell me, how do I leave you?, (Tell me, how do I leave you?)

If it is with your affection that you and I will be eternal

Tell me, how do I forget you?

Did you like this lyrics translation?

This is a vallenato love song about distance, and it opens with a lovely bit of imagery: two stars ("llegaron dos luceros a mi balcón" [two bright stars came to my balcony]) lean in and ask the singer why he is crying. His answer is simple. He misses the woman he loves, and he does not know if he will ever see her again or kiss her lips.

What makes it sweet rather than gloomy is the twist in the middle: "Sabes que la distancia es nuestra amiga" [You know that distance is our friend], because it taught them to put up with all that longing for kisses. Then comes the cutest line in the song, "yo soy tu sábana y tú mi almohadita" [I am your bedsheet and you are my little pillow]. The -ita ending on almohadita is a diminutive, a very Colombian way of making a word tender.

The chorus is the question in the title, "Dime, ¿cómo te olvido?" [Tell me, how do I forget you?], and the answer is that he can't, since with her love "seremos eternos" [we will be eternal]. In the middle you also hear spoken shout-outs to people by name, like Paola de la Peña and Paulina Cabello, a classic vallenato habit of dedicating the song to friends and fans.
