Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Contigo by Joaquin Sabina from Spanish to English.
Yo no quiero un amor civilizado
I don't want a civilized love
Con recibos y escena del sofá
With receipts and sofa scene
Yo no quiero que viajes al pasado
I don't want you to travel to the past
Y vuelvas del mercado con ganas de llorar
And you come back from the market wanting to cry
Yo no quiero vecinas con pucheros
I don't want neighbors with pouts
Yo no quiero sembrar ni compartir
I don't want to plant or share
Yo quiero catorce de Febrero
I want February fourteenth
Ni cumpleaños feliz
nor happy birthday
Yo no quiero cargar con tus maletas
I don't want to carry your suitcases
Yo no quiero que elijas mi champú
I do not want you to choose my shampoo
Yo no quiero mudarme de planeta
I don't want to move planet
Cortarme la coleta, brindar a tu salud
Cut my ponytail, toast your health
Yo no quiero domingo por la tarde
I don't want Sunday afternoon
Yo no quiero columpio en el jardín
I do not want a swing in the garden
Lo que yo quiero corazón cobarde
What I want, cowardly heart
Es que mueras por mí
It's that you die for me
Y morirme contigo si te matas
And die with you if you kill yourself
Y matarme contigo si te mueres
And kill me with you if you die
Porque el amor cuando no muere mata
Because when love does not die, it kills
Porque amores que matan nunca mueren
Because loves that kills never dies
Yo no quiero juntar para mañana
I don't want to get together for tomorrow
Nunca supe llegar a fin de mes
I never knew how to make ends meet
Yo no quiero comerme una manzana
I don't want to eat an apple
Dos veces por semana, sin ganas de comer
Twice a week, no desire to eat
Yo no quiero calor de invernadero
I don't want greenhouse heat
Yo no quiero besar tu cicatriz
I don't want to kiss your scar
Yo no quiero París con aguacero
I don't want Paris with a downpour
Ni Venecia sin ti
Not even Venice without you
No me esperes a las doce en el juzgado
Don't wait for me at twelve at the court
No me digas volvamos a empezar
Don't tell me let's start again
Yo no quiero ni libre ni ocupado
I don't want neither free nor busy
Ni carne ni pecado ni orgullo ni piedad
Neither flesh nor sin nor pride nor mercy
Yo no quiero saber porqué lo hiciste
I don't want to know why you did it
Lo que yo quiero muchacha de ojos tristes
What I want, girl with sad eyes
Es que mueras por mí
It's that you die for me
Y morirme contigo si te matas
And die with you if you kill yourself
Y matarme contigo si te mueres
And kill me with you if you die
Porque el amor cuando no muere mata
Because when love does not die, it kills
Porque amores que matan nunca mueren
Because loves that kills never dies
