Ayer La Vi Lyrics in English Don Omar

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Ayer La Vi by Don Omar from Spanish to English.
Ayer la vi por ahí tomando
Yesterday I saw her out there drinking
Queriendo morir, llorando
Wanting to die, crying
Quién le hizo eso a ella, tan bella
Who did that to her, so beautiful
Que ahoga hoy sus sueños en esa botella
Who drowns her dreams in that bottle today
Usted se fue y la dejó en un rincón llorando
You left and left her crying in a corner
Y aún aquí estoy yo por sus besos rogando
And here I am still begging for her kisses
Como no pudo ver lo que por dentro es
How could she not see what's inside
Ya no quiere querer y qué le puedo hacer
She no longer wants to love, what can I do
Todo fue culpa de usted que la dejó llorando
It was all your fault for leaving her crying
Y aún aquí estoy yo por sus besos rogando
And here I am still begging for her kisses
Como no pudiste ver lo que por dentro es
How could you not see what's inside
Ya no quiere querer y qué le puedo hacer
She no longer wants to love, what can I do
Nadie deja que muera una flor tan bella
No one lets such a beautiful flower die
Ni deja sin castillo a una doncella
Nor leaves a damsel without a castle
Quién bajó del firmamento tan linda estrella
Who descended from the sky, such a beautiful star
Le pagó con sufrimiento y hoy no brilla ella
She was paid with suffering and now she doesn't shine
Nadie deja que muera una flor tan bella
No one lets such a beautiful flower die
Ni deja sin castillo a una doncella
Nor leaves a damsel without a castle
Quién bajó del firmamento tan linda estrella
Who descended from the sky, such a beautiful star
Le pagó con sufrimiento y ya no brilla ella
She was paid with suffering and now she doesn't shine
Todo fue culpa de usted que la dejó llorando
It was all your fault for leaving her crying
Y aún aquí estoy yo por sus besos rogando
And here I am still begging for her kisses
Como no pudiste ver lo que por dentro es
How could you not see what's inside
Ya no quiere querer y qué le puedo hacer
She no longer wants to love, what can I do
Todo fue culpa de usted que la dejó llorando
It was all your fault for leaving her crying
Y aún aquí estoy yo por sus besos rogando
And here I am still begging for her kisses
Como no pudiste ver lo que por dentro es
How could you not see what's inside
Ya no quiere querer y qué le puedo hacer
She no longer wants to love, what can I do
Si ahora llora sola, sola, solita las penas de un amor
If now she cries alone, alone, all alone the sorrows of love
Que sus hojas marchitan
That wither its leaves
Ahora llora sola, sola, solita las penas de un amor
Now she cries alone, alone, all alone the sorrows of love
Que sus hojas marchitan
That wither its leaves
Todo fue culpa de usted que la dejó llorando
It was all your fault for leaving her crying
Y aún aquí estoy yo por sus besos rogando
And here I am still begging for her kisses
Como no pudiste ver lo que por dentro es
How could you not see what's inside
Ya no quiere querer y qué le puedo hacer
She no longer wants to love, what can I do
Ayer la vi por ahí tomando
Yesterday I saw her out there drinking
Queriendo morir, llorando
Wanting to die, crying
Quién le hizo eso a ella, tan bella
Who did that to her, so beautiful
Que ahoga hoy sus sueños en esa botella
Who drowns her dreams in that bottle

SONG MEANING
In Ayer La Vi by Don Omar, the singer reflects on the pain of a woman who has been abandoned and is now drowning her sorrows in alcohol. He questions who could have done this to such a beautiful person, and blames the person who left her for her suffering. He also laments that no one should let a beautiful flower die or a princess be without her castle, and that the person who left her should have seen the beauty within her. The song ultimately serves as a reminder that no one should be left to suffer alone.
