Below, I translated the lyrics of the song OJALÁ by Maria Becerra from Spanish to English.

Chorus 1

I hope that they don't do to you what you did to me that time

I hope that you always regret it and that you want to come back

Don't tell me that you love me because I already know that one

I hope that you suffer every time that you see me with him

Verse 1

H-hope that karma comes back to you

You were a puppet because you had no soul

I don't have calm anymore

To remember my birthday you would set an alarm

I don't have time anymore and even less patience

With so many lies, you already have experience to spare

But I don't want anything with you anymore

What we've been is a sad memory

Chorus 2

If you cheat on me once, you never cheat on me again

You know that you'll never forget me

I hope that they don't do to you what you did to me that time

I hope that you always regret it and that you want to come back

Don't tell me that you love me because I already know that one

I hope that you suffer every time that you see me with him

Verse 2

And now I go out with my girls, we head to the after-party after leaving the club

Because no night kills me, babe, if you didn't kill me

And now I go out with my girls, we head to the after-party after leaving the club

Because no night kills me, babe, if you didn't kill me

Chorus 3

If you cheat on me once, you never cheat on me again

You know that you'll never forget me

I hope that they don't do to you what you did to me that time

I hope that you always regret it and that you want to come back

Don't tell me that you love me because I already know that one

I hope that you suffer every time, every time that you see me with him

SONG MEANING

OJALÁ swings between heartache and empowerment, capturing the moment when someone finally slams the door on a toxic ex. Maria Becerra sings from the raw place where love has turned into disappointment: she wishes karma will boomerang every lie and betrayal back to the person who hurt her. Each ojalá (“I hope”) is half-prayer, half-warning – she longs for the ex to feel the same sting of pain, to regret and crave a reunion that will never come.

At the same time, the Argentine star paints a picture of her own rebirth. Surrounded by her “gatas” (her girlfriends), she dives into nightlife, dancing past midnight and proving that no night can break her spirit if the ex’s betrayal could not. The chorus becomes a victory chant: she has learned her lesson, reclaimed her time, and made peace with the fact that the ex will never forget her. The song is a spicy mix of revenge fantasy and self-love anthem that turns heartbreak into a reason to celebrate freedom.
