Home / Lyrics Translation / Enrique Iglesias / El Muro

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song El Muro by Enrique Iglesias from Spanish to English.

Quisiera acercarme a ti y no me atrevo

I would like to approach you and I don't dare

Y se que tú lo deseas, igual o más

And I know that you desire it, the same or more

Quisiera oírte decir - estoy temblando

I would like to hear you say - I'm trembling

Y yo también tengo frío, y no vendrás

And I also feel cold, and you won't come

Y siguen pasando los días

And the days keep passing by

Y tú en silencio preguntas: ¿Qué nos pasó?

And you silently ask: What happened to us?

Hay un muro entre tú y yo

There's a wall between you and me

Hay un muro en la oscuridad

There's a wall in the darkness

Caricias rotas buscando volver

Broken caresses seeking to return

Y un amor que muere, no hay nada que hacer

And a love that dies, there's nothing to do

Hay un muro entre tú y yo

There's a wall between you and me

Dos heridas en la soledad

Two wounds in solitude

Dos luces blancas que el tiempo apagó

Two white lights that time extinguished

Y un amor que muere, lo creamos o no

And a love that dies, whether we believe it or not

Quisiera besar de nuevo tus manos largas

I would like to kiss your long hands again

También ellas lo quisieran y yo lo sé

They would also like it and I know it

Quisiera romper el nudo de tus secretos

I would like to break the knot of your secrets

Y abrirte mi alma entera, ayudame

And open up my whole soul to you, help me

Y sigues mirando en silencio

And you keep looking silently

Y tú tampoco te exolicas que nos falló

And you also can't explain what failed us

Hay un muro entre tú y yo

There's a wall between you and me

Hay un muro en la oscuridad

There's a wall in the darkness

Caricias rotas buscando volver

Broken caresses seeking to return

Y un amor que muere, no hay nada que hacer

And a love that dies, there's nothing to do

Hay un muro entre tú y yo

There's a wall between you and me

Dos heridas en la soledad

Two wounds in solitude

Dos luces blancas que el tiempo apagó

Two white lights that time extinguished

Y un amor que muere, lo creamos o no

And a love that dies, whether we believe it or not

Hay un muro entre tú y yo

There's a wall between you and me

Hay un muro en la oscuridad

There's a wall in the darkness

Caricias rotas buscando volver

Broken caresses seeking to return

Y un amor que muere, no hay nada que hacer

And a love that dies, there's nothing to do

Hay un muro entre tú y yo

There's a wall between you and me

Dos heridas en la soledad

Two wounds in solitude

Dos luces blancas que el tiempo apagó

Two white lights that time extinguished

Y un amor que muere, lo creamos o no

And a love that dies, whether we believe it or not

Hay un muro entre tú y yo

There's a wall between you and me

Hay un muro en la oscuridad

There's a wall in the darkness

Caricias rotas buscando volver

Broken caresses seeking to return

Y un amor que muere, no hay nada que hacer

And a love that dies, there's nothing to do

SONG MEANING

"El Muro" by Enrique Iglesias is a heartfelt song that explores the theme of a broken relationship and the emotional barriers that have formed between two people. The lyrics express the desire to bridge the gap and reconnect, but also acknowledge the reality that their love is fading away. The metaphorical "muro" or wall symbolizes the distance and darkness that has come between them, leaving them with broken caresses and a love that is dying. Despite their longing, the song suggests that there may be nothing left to do but accept the inevitable end of their relationship.
