Qué Lástima Lyrics in English Juan Gabriel
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Qué Lástima by Juan Gabriel from Spanish to English.
Adiós amor hoy me retiro
Goodbye love, today I leave
Me voy de ti
I'm leaving you
Me voy tan lejos
I'm going so far
Que no sé como he de volver
That I don't know how I'll return
Adiós amor hoy me despido
Goodbye love, today I say goodbye
Se muy feliz
Be very happy
Dios quiera encuentres el amor
I hope to God you find the love
Que no te di ya vez
That I didn't give you, you see
Y no me busques
And don't look for me
Nunca más
Never again
Por que jamás
Because never
Me encontraras
You'll find me
Ni tú ni yo
Neither you nor I
Tenemos ya más de que hablar
We no longer have anything to talk about
Y ahora yo me voy
And now I'm leaving
Te olvidaré, y sin rencor
I'll forget you, and without resentment
Este es mi adiós
This is my goodbye
Adiós amor, hoy me retiro
Goodbye love, today I leave
Oh, me voy de ti
Oh, I'm leaving you
Me voy tan lejos
I'm going so far
Que no sé como he de volver adiós
That I don't know how I'll return, goodbye
Me duele en el alma saber que terminamos, amor
It pains my soul to know we're over, love
Que tengas buena suerte donde quiera que te encuentres
Good luck wherever you may be
Adiós querido amor adiós
Goodbye dear love, goodbye
No pudo ser posible amor, oh fue por demás
It couldn't be possible, love, oh it was in vain
Que lástima
What a shame
Mejor me voy
I'd better go
Que pena da no haber triunfado
What a pity not to have succeeded
En esta ocasión, será otra vez
This time, it'll be another time
Y espero que no haya otro adiós, no haya otro adiós
And I hope there isn't another goodbye, there isn't another goodbye
Que lástima
What a shame

Did you like this lyrics translation?
lástima — a shame / a pity
Lástima translates to "a shame" or "a pity." While it might seem common, its use here is particularly poignant and forms the title of the song, making it central to the song's emotional core.
In the context of the song, Juan Gabriel repeatedly expresses "Qué lástima" (What a shame) as he bids farewell to a love that couldn't be. It encapsulates the deep regret and sorrow of a relationship ending, despite the love that was once there. This word perfectly captures the bittersweet resignation of the lyrics.
