Estar Lejos Lyrics in English Fonseca , Willie Colón
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Estar Lejos by Fonseca from Spanish to English.
Y estar lejos me hace daño
And being far hurts me
Siempre espero el día siguiente
I always wait for the next day
Solo quiero detenerme
I just want to stop
Estar lejo' me enamora
Being far makes me fall in love
Es la vida la que llora
It's life that cries
Estar lejos hoy me ofende
Being far offends me today
Estar lejos me hace daño sin ti
Being far hurts me without you
Estar siempre a tu lado es mi fin
To always be by your side is my goal
Voy buscando el día primero
I'm looking for the first day
Recordar bien lo que quiero
To remember well what I want
Y encontrarte entre mis cuentos
And to find you among my stories
No voy a olvidar, que te he escrito mas de doce canciones
I won't forget that I've written you more than twelve songs
No voy a olvidar, que te llevo siempre en mis oraciones
I won't forget that I always carry you in my prayers
No voy a olvidar, que eres todo lo que quiero decir
I won't forget that you're everything I want to say
Y el olvido ya no es parte de mi
And forgetting is no longer part of me
Que estar lejos me hace daño hasta al fin
That being far hurts me until the end
Pero lejos estoy cerca de ti
But far I'm close to you
Estar lejos me hace daño sin ti
Being far hurts me without you
Estar siempre a tu lado es mi fin
To always be by your side is my goal
Voy buscando el día primero
I'm looking for the first day
Recordar bien lo que quiero
To remember well what I want
Y encontrarte entre mis cuentos
And to find you among my stories
No voy a olvidar, que te he escrito mas de doce canciones
I won't forget that I've written you more than twelve songs
No voy a olvidar, que te llevo siempre en mis oraciones
I won't forget that I always carry you in my prayers
No voy a olvidar, que eres todo lo que quiero decir
I won't forget that you're everything I want to say
Y el olvido ya no es parte de mi
And forgetting is no longer part of me
Que estar lejos me hace daño hasta al fin
That being far hurts me until the end
Pero lejos estoy cerca de ti
But far I'm close to you
Cada paso que doy adelante es una mirada atrás
Every step I take forward is a look back
Te olvido
I forget you
Perdóname si te hecho al olvido
Forgive me if I've forgotten you
Te olvido
I forget you

oraciones — prayers
Oraciones translates to "prayers." While it can also mean "sentences," in the context of this song, it clearly refers to religious or spiritual prayers.
Fonseca sings, "No voy a olvidar, que te llevo siempre en mis oraciones" (I won't forget that I always carry you in my prayers). This reveals a deep, spiritual connection and commitment to the person he's singing about, elevating his feelings beyond mere affection to a sacred devotion.
