Verse 1
Cuando quiero ser tu sombra
When I want to be your shadow
Es difícil encontrar alguna luz
It's hard to find any light
Mas cuando quiero ser tu agua
But when I want to be your water
Vas a beber a otro río, a otra playa
You're going to drink to another river, to another beach
Y aunque el agua del mar, sea salada
And even if the sea water is salty
Te empecinas con la idea de beber
You get into the idea of drinking
Mas no viendo que a tu lado
But not seeing that next to you
Una vertiente se está convirtiendo en barro
A slope is turning into mud
Chorus 1
Yo te qui, yo te qui, yo te quiero
I loved you, I loved you, I love you
Con raíces, pero en libertad
With roots, but in freedom
Yo te qui, yo te qui, yo te quiero
I loved you, I loved you, I love you
Pero, ¿hasta cuando te tendré yo que esperar?
But how long will I have to wait for you?
Verse 2
Cuando quiero ser tu estrella
When I want to be your star
Hay una luna deslumbrante que me opaca
There's a dazzling moon that dulls me
Y aunque sé que no soy la más bella
And although I know I'm not the most beautiful
Este amor por ti hasta mata
This love for you even kills
Chorus 2
Yo te qui, yo te qui, yo te quiero
I loved you, I loved you, I love you
Con raíces, pero en libertad
With roots, but in freedom
Yo te qui, yo te qui, yo te quiero
I loved you, I loved you, I love you
Pero, ¿hasta cuando te tendré yo que esperar?
But how long will I have to wait for you?
Ay, yo te qui, yo te qui, yo te quiero
Oh, I love you, I love you, I love you
Con raíces pero en libertad
With roots but in freedom
Ay, yo te qui, yo te qui, yo te quiero
Oh, I love you, I love you, I love you
Pero, ¿hasta cuando te tendré yo que esperar?
But how long will I have to wait for you?
