Después De Ti Lyrics in English by KAROL G, Greg Gonzalez
Marchitadas means "withered" or "faded." It's a poignant and evocative word that paints a vivid picture of decay and loss.
In the song, Karol G sings about looking at "las últimas rosas que me diste, aunque están marchitadas" (the last roses you gave me, even though they are withered). This word beautifully captures the lingering pain and the fading memory of a past relationship, making it a powerful and memorable choice.
This song is a deep dive into the kind of heartbreak that makes everything feel pointless. KAROL G isn't just sad; she says her breakfast tastes like nothing and she can't even study or sleep. She's completely stuck. When her friends ask about her ex, she admits, "Ya no sé qué decirles / Me cansé de mentirles" (I don't know what to tell them anymore / I'm tired of lying to them).
She's not interested in moving on. Instead, she tells her friends she's busy so she can stay home "Mirando las últimas rosas que me diste / Aunque están marchitadas" (Looking at the last roses you gave me / Even though they're withered). The song gets incredibly dramatic when she says, "Esto no es estar triste / Son ganas de morirse" (This isn't being sad / It's the feeling of wanting to die). It's a powerful look at someone who feels their life is over after a breakup, choosing to live in fantasies where their ex is still there.
