Mi Buen Amor Lyrics in English Gloria Estefan

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Mi Buen Amor by Gloria Estefan from Spanish to English.
Verse 1
There are loves that vanish with the years
There are loves whose flame stays alive
The uncertain ones that are rose and thorn
And there are good loves like you
There are loves that get planted and bloom
There are loves that end in drought
The ones that bring heartbreaks in life
And there are good loves like you
Chorus 1
My love, my good love, my delirium
Don't expect that I forget you just like that
That your love was a sea when I was thirsty
I drew up to your harbor to rest
That your love, love
Only the one that one day
In your chest, my life
Gave me happiness
Verse 2
There are loves that carry us to the abyss
There are loves that we never forget
Those that give all tenderness and fantasy
Are good loves like you
Chorus 2
My love, my good love, my delirium
Don't expect that my sorrow is little
That your love was light of full day
When everything was darkness
That your love, love
Only the one that one day
In your chest, my life
Gave me happiness
Outro
In your chest, my life
Gave me happiness

SONG MEANING

Gloria Estefan, the Cuban-American queen of Latin pop, uses Mi Buen Amor to celebrate a rare and precious kind of romance. She compares many kinds of love—brief sparks, prickly roses, dry deserts, dizzying abysses—and then singles out one shining exception: “un amor de los buenos,” a good love like the one she shares with her partner.

Throughout the song, Estefan showers this love with vivid images. It is an ocean that quenches her thirst, a safe harbor where she can finally rest, and a midday sun that chases away every shadow. Even if years pass and pain creeps in, she insists that the joy found in her lover’s arms must never be forgotten. The result is both a grateful love letter and a heartfelt plea to keep the memory of that transforming affection alive.
