NO Voy A Llorar :') Lyrics in English by Nicki Nicole
brindé is the past tense of the verb brindar, which means "to offer" or "to give". It's a more poetic and heartfelt alternative to the common verb dar (to give), and it's also the word you use when you "make a toast"!
In the song, Nicki Nicole sings, "el mismo amor que un día te brindé" (the same love that I once gave you). By choosing this beautiful word, she elevates the love she offered, adding a touch of dignity and significance to it even as she decides to stop crying over it.
This song by Argentine artist Nicki Nicole is the ultimate anthem for when you're finally done with a relationship that's been hurting you. She makes a promise to herself right from the start: "No voy a llorar / Cuando te vayas" (I'm not going to cry / When you leave). This isn't about pretending not to be sad; it's a powerful decision. She's been down this road before, counting her losses with the line "Ya perdí una vez / Con dos ya van tres / Cuatro no va a haber" (I already lost once / with two it makes three / There won't be a fourth). She is drawing a final line.
What makes her so determined? She reveals a moment of deep betrayal. She remembers opening up about her insecurities, saying, "Cuando to' mis miedo yo te conté / En vez de consolarme / Te reíste" (When I told you all my fears / Instead of consoling me / You laughed). After that kind of disrespect, her decision to walk away feels completely earned. She tells her ex to move on and declares her own worth, telling herself, "Como yo, ninguna" (Like me, there's no one). It's a song about finding your self-respect and refusing to shed another tear for someone who doesn't deserve it.
