Se me acabo la fuerza
I'm out of strength
De mi mano izquierda
From my left hand
Voy a dejarte el mundo
I'm going to leave the world to you
Para ti solita
For you alone
Como al caballo blanco
Like the white horse
Le solté la rienda
I let go of the rein.
A ti también te suelto
I let you go too
Y te me vas ahorita
And you're going to me right now
Y cuando al fin comprendas
And when at last you understand
Que el amor bonito
That beautiful love
Lo tenias conmigo
You had it with me
Vas a extrañar mis besos
You're going to miss my kisses
En los propios brazos
In one's own arms
Del que este contigo
Of the one who is with you
Vas a sentir que lloras
You're going to feel like you're crying
Sin poder siquiera
Without even being able to
Derramar tu llanto
Shedding your cry
Y has de querer mirarte
And you have to want to look at yourself
En mis ojos claros
In my clear eyes
Que quisiste tanto
What did you love so much?
Que quisiste tanto
What did you love so much?
Que quisiste tanto
What did you love so much?
Cuando se quiere a fuerza
When you want it by force
Rebasar la meta
Exceeding the goal
Y se abandona todo
And everything is abandoned
Lo que se ha tenido
What has been had
Como tú traes el alma
How you bring the soul
Con la rienda suelta
With free rein
Ya crees que el mundo es tuyo
You already believe that the world is yours
Y hasta me das tu olvido
And you even give me your forgetfulness
Y cuando al fin comprendas
And when at last you understand
Que el amor bonito
That beautiful love
Lo tenias conmigo
You had it with me
Vas a extrañar mis besos
You're going to miss my kisses
En los propios brazos
In one's own arms
De el que este contigo
From him who is with you
Vas a sentir que lloras
You're going to feel like you're crying
Sin poder si quiera
Without even being able to
Derramar tu llanto
Shedding your cry
Y has de querer mirarte
And you have to want to look at yourself
En mis ojos claros
In my clear eyes
Que quisiste tanto
What did you love so much?
Que quisiste tanto
What did you love so much?
Que quisiste tanto
What did you love so much?
Te solté la rienda
I let go of the reins
