Es verdad que tu amor fue el más grande el más tierno
It's true that your love was the greatest, the tenderest
Fue ardiente y fue el mejor
It was passionate and it was the best
Que no tuve momentos más gratos y buenos
That I didn't have more pleasant and good moments
Que los que me dio tu amor
Than those your love gave me
Y que a cada momento
And that at every moment
Y en todas las cosas que miro, te encuentro
And in all the things I look at, I find you
Más no debo olvidar que son todos recuerdos
But I mustn't forget that they're all memories
Y a mi lado no estás
And by my side you're not
Los recuerdos, no abrazan
Memories don't hug
Los recuerdos, no besan
Memories don't kiss
Los recuerdos que tengo de ti
The memories I have of you
No me sirven de nada si no estás aquí
They're useless to me if you're not here
Los recuerdos, no abrazan
Memories don't hug
Los recuerdos, no besan
Memories don't kiss
Los recuerdos que tengo de ti
The memories I have of you
No me sirven de nada si no estás aquí
They're useless to me if you're not here
Los recuerdos, no abrazan
Memories don't hug
Los recuerdos, no besan
Memories don't kiss
Los recuerdos que tengo de ti
The memories I have of you
No me sirven de nada si no estás aquí
They're useless to me if you're not here
Los lugares comunes, los detalles pequeños
The usual places, the small details
Son aquellos que duelen más
Are those that hurt the most
Y la calle sin ti, nuestra casa sin ti
And the street without you, our house without you
Para mi todo es soledad
For me everything is loneliness
Y tu olvido lastima
And your absence hurts
Y me obliga a vivir sin querer esta libertad
And it forces me to live unwillingly this freedom
Porque cuando te fuiste me cortaste las alas
Because when you left you cut my wings
Ya no puedo volar
I can't fly anymore
Los recuerdos, no abrazan
Memories don't hug
Los recuerdos, no besan
Memories don't kiss
Los recuerdos que tengo de ti
The memories I have of you
No me sirven de nada si no estás aquí
They're useless to me if you're not here
Los recuerdos, no abrazan
Memories don't hug
Los recuerdos, no besan
Memories don't kiss
Los recuerdos que tengo de ti
The memories I have of you
No me sirven de nada si no estás aquí
They're useless to me if you're not here
Los recuerdos, no abrazan
Memories don't hug
Los recuerdos, no besan
Memories don't kiss
Los recuerdos que tengo de ti
The memories I have of you
No me sirven de nada si no estás aquí (los recuerdos)
They're useless to me if you're not here (the memories)

Did you like this lyrics translation?

abrazan — embrace

Abrazan comes from the verb abrazar, meaning "to hug" or "to embrace." It's a common word, but its use here is particularly poignant and unique.

In the song, the lyrics state, "Los recuerdos no abrazan" (Memories don't embrace). This personifies memories, highlighting the painful truth that while memories can bring comfort, they cannot physically offer the warmth and presence of a loved one. This makes the word memorable and emotionally resonant.
