These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Se suele decir del tiempo
It's often said about time
Que cura todos los males
That it cures all ills
Y que se los lleva lejos
And that it takes them far away
Pero nadie me había hablado
But nobody had told me
Del dolor de echar de menos
About the pain of missing
Todo lo que se ha llevado
Everything it has taken
Y no me voy a dormir tranquila
And I'm not going to sleep peacefully
El carpe diem a veces se me olvida
Sometimes I forget carpe diem
Y aquí estoy, tirando de carrete
And here I am, looking through old photos
Sintiendo nostalgia
Feeling nostalgia
Con las fotos del dos mil diecisiete
With the photos from 2017
Yo no soy, pasó el tiempo volando
I am not, time flew by
Dice que lo que era para siempre
It says that what was forever
No significa tanto
Doesn't mean that much
No es para tanto, no es para tanto
It's not a big deal, it's not a big deal
Hay decisiones de las que me arrepiento
There are decisions I regret
Hay gente que quería a la que no sigo viendo
There are people I loved that I no longer see
A veces me caigo y solo es un primero
Sometimes I fall and it's only a first
A veces aguanto grados bajo cero
Sometimes I endure degrees below zero
Ojalá haber vivido momentos
I wish I had lived moments
Si hubiera sabido que ese abrazo era el último
If I had known that hug was the last one
Te hubiera abraza'o más lento
I would've hugged you slower
Te digo cómo lo siento
I tell you how I feel
Por eso no me voy a dormir tranquila
That's why I'm not going to sleep peacefully
El carpe diem a veces se me olvida
Sometimes I forget carpe diem
Y aquí estoy, tirando de carrete
And here I am, looking through old photos
Sintiendo nostalgia
Feeling nostalgia
Con las fotos del dos mil diecisiete
With the photos from 2017
Yo no soy, pasó el tiempo volando
I am not, time flew by
Dice que lo que era para siempre
It says that what was forever
No significa tanto
Doesn't mean that much
Tirando de carrete
Looking through old photos
No es para tanto, no es para tanto
It's not a big deal, it's not a big deal
Tirando de carrete
Looking through old photos
He empezado a vivir
I've started to live
La nostalgia en mi canto
Nostalgia in my song
He empezado a sentir
I've started to feel
Lo que es la pena sin llanto
What sorrow without tears is
No es para tanto, no es para tanto
It's not a big deal, it's not a big deal
He empezado a vivir
I've started to live
La nostalgia en mi canto
Nostalgia in my song
He empezado a sentir
I've started to feel
Lo que es la pena sin llanto
What sorrow without tears is
No es para tanto, no es para tanto
It's not a big deal, it's not a big deal
Y aquí estoy, tirando de carrete
And here I am, looking through old photos
Sintiendo nostalgia
Feeling nostalgia
Con las fotos del dos mil diecisiete

Yo no soy, pasó el tiempo volando
I am not, time flew by
Dice que lo que era para siempre
It says that what was forever
No significa tanto
Doesn't mean that much
Tirando de carrete
Looking through old photos
No es para tanto, no es para tanto
It's not a big deal, it's not a big deal
Tirando de carrete
Looking through old photos
No es para tanto, no es para tanto
It's not a big deal, it's not a big deal
Tirando de carrete
Looking through old photos
No es para tanto, no es para tanto
It's not a big deal, it's not a big deal
Tirando de carrete
Looking through old photos
No es para tanto, no es para tanto
It's not a big deal, it's not a big deal

carretefilm reel / spool

Carrete literally translates to "film reel" or "spool," like for a camera or fishing line. It's an interesting word because it's not commonly heard in everyday conversation or many songs.

In this song, the phrase "tirando de carrete" is used idiomatically to mean "looking through old photos" or "reminiscing." It evokes the nostalgic act of winding through old film or photo albums, perfectly capturing the song's theme of looking back at past memories and feeling sentimental.
