Why de tanto reproche
And of so much reproach
Somos en nuestra quimera
We are in our chimera
Doliente why querida
Suffering and beloved
Dos hojas que el viento
Two leaves that the wind
Junto en el otoño ¡Ay!
Joined in the autumn, oh!
Somos dos seres en uno
We are two beings in one
Que amando se mueren
Who loving, they die
Para guardar en secreto
To keep in secret
Lo mucho que quieren

Pero, ¿qué importa la vida
But what does life matter
Con esta separación?

Did you like this lyrics translation?
quimera — chimera / impossible dream
Quimera translates to "chimera" or "impossible dream." It's a word rooted in mythology, referring to a mythical beast or, more commonly, an illusion or a fanciful, impossible hope.
In "Contigo Aprendí," the lyrics describe "nuestra quimera doliente y querida" (our aching and beloved chimera). This beautifully captures the bittersweet nature of a love that is both cherished and inherently unattainable, making it a poignant and memorable word choice.
