Isabel Lyrics in English by Il Divo
Enfadará comes from the verb enfadar, meaning 'to anger' or 'to annoy'. It's a strong verb that expresses a significant emotional reaction.
In the song, the lyrics state, "Si te vas, Tu Dios se enfadará" (If you leave, your God will get angry). This line uses the future tense of enfadar to create a dramatic and somewhat ominous warning, suggesting divine displeasure if Isabel departs. It's a powerful and less common word than simply saying someone will be sad, adding a unique intensity to the plea.
"Isabel" is Il Divo begging one specific woman not to walk out the door. It opens mid-fall: "Volar, caer" [To fly, to fall], "Al fondo del dolor" [To the bottom of the pain] - the high and the crash in the same breath, before he's even said her name. Then the bargaining starts. "Si te vas, tu Dios se enfadará" [If you leave, your God will get angry] is a strange line to lean on, but it tells you how far he's willing to reach for an argument that might actually work. "No dejes que este amor muera así" [Don't let this love die like this], he says, and the payoff he offers is almost childlike: "Lloraré, llorarás, sufriendo en soledad" [I'll cry, you'll cry, suffering alone], "Tu vuelve a mí y yo te haré feliz" [Come back to me and I'll make you happy]. Not much of a plan, but it's honest about what he's got.
By the second half the pleading turns to dread. "A donde irás sin mí" [Where will you go without me] and "Yo no sabré vivir sin ti" [I won't know how to live without you] aren't threats, they're just fear talking. Her name shows up at the end of nearly every verse, the one word he keeps coming back to once the arguments run out.
