Medellín Lyrics in English Luis Fonsi

Home / Lyrics translation / Luis Fonsi / Medellín

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Medellín by Luis Fonsi from Spanish to English.

It cost me to get over you

But the goal was achieved, I'm not vengeful

But I hope that you lack

Everything you lived with me

I hope that your friends tell you that I'm fine

That I'm better than I was before when I was with you

I already hopped on another train

And it's more interesting, you should've left sooner

I hope that when you're drinking you think of me

Dancing to my songs, you think of me

When the day's ending you think of me

That's what you get for making me suffer

I hope that when you're with another you think of me

With your heart broken you think of me

That you see my photos with your friend from Medellín

That's what you get for making me, that's what you get for making me suffer

That's what you get for making me suffer

They tell me that you're down, they don't see you happy anymore

That since I'm gone you're no longer at a hundred

I already got over you, thank God, amen

I don't dislike you, but I don't like you either

Sooner or later life deals the cards

Don't ask me to save your spot

If it hurts you, you gotta put up with it

And I hope that

I hope that when you're drinking you think of me

Dancing to my songs, you think of me

When the day's ending you think of me

That's what you get for making me suffer

I hope that when you're with another you think of me

With your heart broken you think of me

That you see my photos with your friend from Medellín

That's what you get for making me, that's what you get for making me suffer

That's what you get for making me suffer

vengativo — vengeful

Vengativo translates to "vengeful" or "vindictive." It's a strong and evocative word that immediately sets a dramatic tone for the song.

In the lyrics, Luis Fonsi declares, "no soy vengativo," meaning "I'm not vengeful." However, he immediately follows this by wishing his ex-partner misfortune, creating an ironic and intriguing contrast that makes the word particularly memorable and central to the song's theme of post-breakup feelings.

Luis Fonsi swaps heartbreak for a victory dance in “Medellín.” The Puerto Rican hit-maker sings about finally shaking off an ex who did him wrong and celebrating his fresh start. Far from moping, he playfully wishes that every sip she takes, every song she hears, and every new romance she tries will remind her of the good times she lost. In other words, “That’s what you get for making me suffer!”

Behind the catchy beat lies a cheeky mix of closure and harmless revenge. Fonsi admits it was hard to move on, but now that he has, he is cruising on a more “interesting train” and posting pictures with a friend from Medellín for the world (and his ex) to see. The message is clear: when someone underestimates your worth, level up, live well, and let your happiness be the loudest comeback.
