Autobiografia Lyrics in English Luis Enrique
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Autobiografia by Luis Enrique from Spanish to English.
Hay boda
There's a wedding
El que tenga algo que decir
Whoever has something to say
Que se calle la boca
Should shut their mouth
La boda de ella tiene que ser la mejor
Her wedding has to be the best
Va a estar llena de cariño y también de mucho amor
It's going to be full of affection and also a lot of love
La boda de ella siempre va ser comentada
Her wedding will always be talked about
Pues va a ver mucho champán y también piña colada
Because there's going to be a lot of champagne and also piña colada
A la boda de ella yo no voy a poder ir
To her wedding I won't be able to go
Porque ella fue mí querer y me lo tiene prohibido
Because she was my love and she has forbidden it to me
La boda de ella yo me la voy a perder
Her wedding I'm going to miss
Y pude haber sido yo quien se casara con ella
And it could have been me who married her
La boda de ella tiene que ser la mejor
Her wedding has to be the best
Necesitaras una madrina también un padrino
You'll need a godmother also a godfather
Y un alcahuete que te cargue los anillos
And a go-between to carry your rings
La boda de ella tiene que ser la mejor
Her wedding has to be the best
Si tú me acostumbraste
If you got me used to it
A tener que agacharme en el balcón
To having to bend down on the balcony
La boda de ella tiene que ser la mejor
Her wedding has to be the best
Pasarán más de mil años muchos más
More than a thousand years will pass, many more
Y a tu carácter nunca se acostumbrará
And to your character one will never get used to it
La boda de ella tiene que ser la mejor
Her wedding has to be the best
Paso por la calle y me tira una mirada bien mala
I walk down the street and she gives me a really mean look
Que le pasa a ese señor
What's wrong with that man
La boda de ella tiene que ser la mejor
Her wedding has to be the best
Se va a repetir la vieja historia de la
The old story of the is going to repeat itself
Novia que esconde su pecado
Bride who hides her sin
Hasta después de la ceremonia
Until after the ceremony

Did you like this lyrics translation?
alcahuete — pimp / go-between
Alcahuete is a fascinating word that can mean 'pimp' or 'matchmaker,' but also 'gossip' or 'informer.' It carries a sense of someone who facilitates illicit or secret affairs.
In this song, the lyrics playfully suggest needing an "alcahuete que te cargue los anillos" (a go-between to carry the rings). This ironic use hints at the complicated and perhaps forbidden nature of the wedding, making the word both intriguing and a bit scandalous.
