Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Tarde Lo Conoci by Patricia Teheran from Spanish to English.
Yo no pense que usted me fuera a despertar
I didn't think you would wake me up
Esta grande ilusión que tengo yo que tengo yo
This great illusion that I have, that I have
Yo no me imagine que no te iba a encontrar
I didn't imagine that I wouldn't find you
Ese tipo de hombre que queria yo que queria yo
That type of man that I wanted, that I wanted
Cuanto diera por tenerlo
I would give anything to have him
Mi vida mi vida entera la daba
My life, my whole life, I would give it
Por descubrir el misterio
To uncover the mystery
Que en esos ojos tan bonitos guarda
That those beautiful eyes hold
Se que tiene compromiso
I know you have a commitment
Yo se que usted tiene quien lo quiera
I know you have someone who loves you
Pero bien vale la pena arriesgarme
But it's worth the risk
Por tener su cariño
To have your affection
Y no se como declararme no se
And I don't know how to confess, I don't know
Porque le tengo respeto
Because I respect you
Pero es que el amor mio es tan grande tambien
But my love is so great too
Que casi no entiende de eso
That it hardly understands that
Por eso perdoneme si no hago bien
So forgive me if I don't do it right
Pero por usted me muero
But for you, I would die
Porque lo vine a conocer señor
Because I came to know you, sir
Cuando su vida toda de ella es
When your whole life belongs to her
Si primero lo hubiera visto yo
If I had seen you first
Seguramente fuera su mujer
Surely I would be your woman
Si primero lo hubiera visto yo
If I had seen you first
Seguramente fuera su mujer
Surely I would be your woman
Pero no me importa porque se que un día
But it doesn't matter to me because I know that one day
Muy cercano lo tendré
Very soon, I will have you
Tengo la esperanza de poder tenerlo
I have hope of being able to have you
Y poder sentir su piel
And feel your skin
No se lo que me da cuando estoy cerca a usted
I don't know what it gives me when I'm close to you
No se lo que me da no se que hacer no se que hacer
I don't know what it gives me, I don't know what to do, I don't know what to do
Lo comienzo a mirar y me hace estremecer
I start to look at you and it makes me shiver
No se que va a pasar si a mi me ven si a mi ven
I don't know what will happen if they see me, if they see me
Mirandole fijamente diciendole mucho con la mirada
Staring at you, telling you a lot with my gaze
Entonces todos comprenden que por usted mi alma esta enamorada
Then everyone understands that my soul is in love with you
Tengo que ser muy discreta
I have to be very discreet
Si no quiero que se enteren toditos
If I don't want everyone to find out
Y eso me daria tristeza
And that would make me sad
Si nunca llego a tener su cariño
If I never get to have your affection
Lo quedo mirando y no se que me da
I keep looking at you and I don't know what it gives me
Usted me pone nerviosa
You make me nervous
Pero a cualquier mujer le puede pasar
But any woman can go through this
Si como yo se enamora
If she falls in love like I do
Por eso a Dios le pido de verdad
That's why I truly pray to God
Que esto no le pase a otra
That this doesn't happen to another person
Porque lo vine a conocer señor
Because I came to know you, sir
Cuando su vida toda de ella es
When your whole life belongs to her
Si primero lo hubiera visto yo
If I had seen you first
Seguramente fuera su mujer
Surely I would be your woman
Si primero lo hubiera visto yo
If I had seen you first
Seguramente fuera su mujer
Surely I would be your woman
Pero no me importa porque se que un día
But it doesn't matter to me because I know that one day
Muy cercano lo tendré
Very soon, I will have you
Tengo la esperanza de poder tenerlo
I have hope of being able to have you
Y poder sentir su piel
And be able to feel your skin
Porque lo vine a conocer señor
Because I came to meet you sir
Cuando su vida toda de ella es
When her life is all of hers
Si primero lo hubiera visto yo
If I had seen it first
