Las Ciudades Lyrics in English José Alfredo Jiménez
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Las Ciudades by José Alfredo Jiménez from Spanish to English.
Te vi llegar
I saw you arrive
Y sentí la presencia de un ser desconocido
And I felt the presence of a stranger
Te vi llegar
I saw you arrive
Y sentí lo que nunca jamás había sentido
And I felt what I'd never ever felt
Te quise amar
I wanted to love you
Y tu amor no era fuego no era lumbre
And your love wasn't fire, it wasn't a flame
Las distancias apartan las ciudades
Distances separate cities
Las ciudades destruyen las costumbres
Cities destroy customs
Te dije adiós
I told you goodbye
Y pediste que nunca, que nunca te olvidara
And you asked that I never, that I never forget you
Te dije adiós
I told you goodbye
Y sentí de tu amor otra vez la fuerza extraña
And I felt that strange force of your love again
Y mi alma completa se me cubrió de hielo
And my whole soul was covered in ice
Y mi cuerpo entero se llenó de frío
And my whole body filled with cold
Y estuve a punto, de cambiar tu mundo
And I was on the verge of changing your world
De cambiar tu mundo por el mundo mío
Of changing your world for mine
