La Ciudad Lyrics in English by Monsieur Perine
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Ciudad by Monsieur Perine from Spanish to English.
Voy a la ciudad
I'm going to the city
Donde tú estas sin compañía
Where you are without company
Voy cerca de ti
I'm going close to you
Lejos de mi
Far from me
Pasa el tiempo si tú no estas
Time passes if you aren't here
Muero viejo por tú esperar
I die old from waiting for you
No me quejo te comprendo
I don't complain, I understand you
No me vuelvo a ausentar
I won't be absent again
Cuando te fuiste yo no era yo
When you left I wasn't myself
No sabia amar
I didn't know how to love
Cuando te fuiste yo no era yo
When you left I wasn't myself
No sabia amar
I didn't know how to love
Voy a la ciudad donde tú estas sin compañía
I'm going to the city where you are without company
Voy cerca de ti
I'm going close to you
Lejos de mi
Far from me
Pasa el tiempo si tú no estas
Time passes if you aren't here
Muero viejo por tú esperar
I die old from waiting for you
No me quejo, te comprendo
I don't complain, I understand you
No me vuelvo a ausentar
I won't be absent again
Cuando te fuiste yo no era yo
When you left I wasn't myself
No sabia amar
I didn't know how to love
Cuando te fuiste yo no era yo
When you left I wasn't myself
No sabia, cuando te fuiste yo no era yo
I didn't know, when you left I wasn't myself
No sabia amar
I didn't know how to love
Cuando te fuiste yo no era yo
When you left I wasn't myself
No sabia amar
I didn't know how to love

Did you like this lyrics translation?
ausentar — to be absent / to be away
Ausentar means "to be absent" or "to be away." It's a more formal and less common verb than simply saying "no estar" (not to be there), which makes it stand out.
In the context of the song, the singer declares, "No me vuelvo a ausentar" (I won't be absent again). This line carries significant emotional weight, implying a past separation and a promise to remain present, highlighting themes of regret and commitment within the lyrics.
