Un Ratito Lyrics in English Andrés Cepeda
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Un Ratito by Andrés Cepeda from Spanish to English.
Aléjate un poquito a ver
Step back a little, let's see
Qué pasa cuando estas
What happens when you're
A más de 3 pasitos de mi piel
More than 3 steps from my skin
Probemos tú ve por leche, yo por pan
Let's try, you go for milk, I for bread
Pero encontrémonos en la mitad
But let's meet in the middle
No creo resistir tanto la distancia
I don't think I'll resist the distance so much
Suéltame de tu mano
Let go of my hand
Si puedo seguir de pie
If I can stay standing
No habrá sido en vano
It won't have been in vain
Enséñame a estar sin ti
Teach me to be without you
Un minuto una hora un día
A minute, an hour, a day
Quiero aprender cómo es vivir
I want to learn what it's like to live
Un ratito sin tu compañía
A little while without your company
Me acostumbré a ser tu sombra fiel
I got used to being your faithful shadow
Y ahora es tan difícil recordar quien soy
And now it's so hard to remember who I am
Demuéstrame que sale el sol
Show me that the sun rises
El segundo en el que no me miras
The second you don't look at me
Yo ya me soy entréname
I am already me, train me
Desaparece de mi vista
Disappear from my sight
Que necesito practicar
Because I need to practice
Ay niña quien sabe si soportaré
Oh girl, who knows if I'll endure
Tener tu foto en la pared colgada
Having your photo hung on the wall
Y privarme de tu cara bonita
And depriving myself of your pretty face
Suéltame de tu mano
Let go of my hand
Si puedo seguir de pie
If I can stay standing
No habrá sido en vano
It won't have been in vain
Enséñame a estar sin ti
Teach me to be without you
Un minuto una hora un día
A minute, an hour, a day
Quiero aprender cómo es vivir
I want to learn what it's like to live
Un ratito sin tu compañía
A little while without your company
Me acostumbre
I got used to
A ser tú sombra fiel
Being your faithful shadow
Y ahora es tan difícil
And now it's so difficult
Recordar quien soy
To remember who I am
Demuéstrame que sale el sol
Show me that the sun rises
El segundo en el que no me miras
The second you don't look at me
Un ratito sin tu compañía
A little while without your company
Un ratito sin tu compañia
A little while without your company
Si puedo seguir de pie no habrá sido en vano
If I can stay standing, it won't have been in vain
Enséñame a estar sin ti
Teach me to be without you
Un minuto una hora un día
A minute, an hour, a day
Demuéstrame que sale el sol
Show me that the sun rises
El segundo en que no me miras
The second you don't look at me

Did you like this lyrics translation?
entréname — train me
Entréname comes from the verb entrenar, meaning "to train". It's used here in the imperative form, meaning "train me".
In the song, the singer is so accustomed to his partner's presence that he feels he needs to be "trained" to live without her. He asks her to disappear so he can practice being alone, highlighting his deep dependence and the challenge of regaining his independence. This unique usage makes the word particularly striking.
