Yesterday I had a love

that today left me

because she didn't love me

My hopes were so high

to make her happy

but everything was in vain

Her false vows

brought to my soul

Forlorn hopes

that life gave us

with all its brilliance

caresses and splendor

Now, I understand

that everything was a lie

I believed her words

How naive of me

that she would never deceive me

Now I'll be alone

so I won't suffer

the consequences in this way

of such a fleeting love

that could only be

Only a fatal dream

Today I know that for money

you give yourself to another man

leaving me

abandoned

in this loneliness

but it doesn't matter

if you mocked

of my faithful love

Femme fatale

Someday, it's you who'll have to pay

but it doesn't matter

if you mocked

of my faithful love

Femme fatale

Someday, it's you who'll have to pay

Today I know that for money

you give yourself to another man

leaving me

abandoned

in this loneliness

but it doesn't matter

if you mocked

of my faithful love

Femme fatale

Someday, it's you who'll have to pay

but it doesn't matter

if you mocked

of my faithful love

Femme fatale

Someday, it's you who'll have to pay

Did you like this lyrics translation?

fulgor — radiance / splendor

Fulgor translates to "radiance" or "splendor." It's a beautiful and somewhat poetic word that evokes a sense of intense brightness and magnificence.

In the song, Julio Jaramillo uses it to describe the initial intensity and beauty of a love that ultimately proved to be false. He sings about "todo su fulgor" (all its radiance), highlighting the dazzling but ultimately fleeting nature of the relationship.

Julio Jaramillo's "Ayer Y Hoy" tells a classic tale of a love lost to betrayal and materialism. Our singer was deeply in love, believing he could make his partner happy, but it all turned out to be "en vano" [in vain]. He put all his hope into this relationship, only to realize that her promises were "juramentos falsos" [false oaths].

Now, he understands that everything was a lie. He was naive to believe her, thinking she would never deceive him. The pain is clear as he sings, "Ahora estaré solo para no sufrir" [Now I will be alone so as not to suffer]. The sting of betrayal is even sharper when he discovers she left him "por dinero" [for money], giving herself "a otro hombre" [to another man]. Despite the heartbreak, he believes she will eventually pay for her actions: "Algún día la tendrás tú, que pagar" [Someday you will have to pay for it].
