Por Si Acaso No Regreso Lyrics in English Celia Cruz
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Por Si Acaso No Regreso by Celia Cruz from Spanish to English.
Por si acaso no regreso
Just in case I don't return
Yo me llevo tu bandera
I take your flag with me
Lamentando que mis ojos
Regretting that my eyes
Liberada no te vieran
Didn't see you liberated
Porque tuve que marcharme
Because I had to leave
Todos pueden comprender
Everyone can understand
Yo pensé que en cualquer momento
I thought that at any moment
A tu suelo iba a volver
I would return to your soil
Pero el tiempo va pasando
But time keeps passing
Y tu sol sigue llorando
And your sun keeps crying
Las cadenas siguen atando
The chains keep binding
Pero yo sigo esperando y al cielo rezando
But I keep waiting and praying to the sky
Y siempre me sentí dichosa
And I always felt happy
De haber nacido entre tus brazos y anunque
To have been born in your arms and although
Ya no esté de mi corazón te dejo un pedazo
I'm no longer there, I leave a piece of my heart with you
Por si acaso, por si acaso no regreso
Just in case, just in case I don't return
Pronto llegará el momento
Soon the moment will come
Que se borre el sufrimiento
That suffering will be erased
Guardaremos los rencores, Dios mío
We will put aside grudges, my God
Y compartiremos todos, un mismo sentimiento
And we will all share the same feeling
Aunque el tiempo haya pasado
Although time has passed
Con orgullo y dignidad
With pride and dignity
Tu nombre lo he llevado, a todo mundo
I have carried your name, to the whole world
Entero le he contado tu verdad
I have told everyone your truth
Pero, tierra ya no sufras
But, land, don't suffer anymore
Corazón no te quebrantes
Heart, don't break
No hay mal que dure cien años
There is no evil that lasts a hundred years
Ni mi cuerpo que aguante
Nor my body that can endure
Y nunca quize abandonarte
And I never wanted to abandon you
Te llevaba en cada paso y quedará mi amor
I carried you in every step and my love will remain
Para siempre como flor de un regazo
Forever like a flower in a lap
Por si acaso, por si acaso no regreso
Just in case, just in case I don't return
Si acaso no regreso
If I don't return
Me matará el dolor
The pain will kill me
Y si no vuelvo a mi tierra
And if I don't return to my land
Me muero de dolor
I will die of pain
Si acaso no regreso
If I don't return
Me matará el dolor
The pain will kill me
A esa tierra yo la adoro
I adore that land
Con todo el corazón
With all my heart
Si acaso no regreso
If I don't return
Me matará el dolor
The pain will kill me
Tierra mía, tierra linda
My land, beautiful land
Te quiero con amor
I love you with love
Si acaso no regreso
If I don't return
Me matará el dolor
The pain will kill me
Tanto tiempo sin verla
So much time without seeing it
Me duele el corazón
My heart hurts
Si acaso no regreso
If I don't return
Cuando me muera
When I die
Que en mi tumba
Let them put my flag
Pongan mi bandera
On my grave
Si acaso no regreso
If I don't return
Y que me entierren
And let them bury me
Con la música
With the music
De mi tierra querida
Of my beloved land
Si acaso no regreso
If I don't return
Si no regreso recuerden
If I don't return, remember
Que la quise con mi vida
That I loved it with my life
Si acaso no regreso
If I don't return
Ay, me muero de dolor
Oh, I die of pain
Me estoy muriendo ya
I'm already dying
Me matará el dolor
The pain will kill me
Me matará el dolor
The pain will kill me
Me matará el dolor
The pain will kill me
Ay, ya me está matando ese dolor
Oh, that pain is already killing me
Me matará el dolor
The pain will kill me
Siempre te quise y te querré
I always loved you and I will love you
Me matará el dolor
The pain will kill me
Me matará el dolor
The pain will kill me
Me matará el dolor
The pain will kill me
Me matará el dolor
The pain will kill me
Si no regreso a esa tierra
If I don't return to that land
Me duele el corazón
My heart hurts
