Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Se va, se va, se fue by Jorge Drexler from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Con el anhelo dirigido hacia ti
With the longing directed towards you
Yo estaba sólo, en un rincón del café
I was alone, in a corner of the cafe
Cuando de pronto oí unas alas batir
When suddenly I heard wings beat
Como si un peso comenzara a ceder
As if a weight began to give way
Tal vez fue algo de la puesta de sol
Maybe it was something from the sunset
O algún efecto secundario del té
Or some side effect of the tea?
Pero lo cierto es que la pena voló
But the truth is that the penalty flew
Y no importó ya ni siquiera porqué
And it didn't even matter anymore why
Algunas veces, mejor no preguntar
Sometimes it's better not to ask
Por una vez que algo sale bien
For once something goes right
Si todo empieza y todo tiene un final
If everything begins and everything has an end
Hay que pensar que la tristeza también
You have to think that sadness too
Todo empieza, todo empieza y todo tiene un final
Everything begins, everything begins and everything has an end
Hay que pensar que la tristeza también se va
You have to think that sadness also leaves
