El Ultimo Adios Lyrics in English Paulina Rubio

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song El Ultimo Adios by Paulina Rubio from Spanish to English.
The streets are bigger
Since you have left
We have to admit
That nothing does me any good because I can't see you
My days without your nights, without hours or minutes
Are an icy dagger that wounds and pierces this heart
When you're kind I'm kind
The hard way, I doubt it
I can lose my soul over your lovelessness, but not my reason
I am straight-up and I loved you, I swear it
But it is worth telling you that my words are the last goodbye
The last goodbye
Even if you come on your knees and implore me and ask me
Even if you come and cry to me that I absolve you and forgive you
Even if you cause me pity I've thrown off your chains
And I dedicate this ranchera to you for being the last goodbye
Even if you come to implore me, to ask and to plead with me
Even if you come and cry to me that I absolve you and forgive you
Even if you cause me pity today I throw off your chains
And I dedicate this ranchera to you for being the last goodbye
When you're kind I'm kind
The hard way, I doubt it
I can lose my soul over your lovelessness, but not my reason
I am straight-up and I loved you, I swear it
But it is worth telling you that my words are the last goodbye
The last goodbye
Even if you come on your knees and implore me and ask me
Even if you come and cry to me that I absolve you and forgive you
Even if you cause me pity I've thrown off your chains
And I dedicate this ranchera to you for being the last goodbye
Even if you come to implore me, to ask and to plead with me
Even if you come and cry to me that I absolve you and forgive you
Even if you cause me pity today I throw off your chains
And I dedicate this ranchera to you for being the last goodbye
Even if you come on your knees and implore me and ask me
Even if you come and cry to me that I absolve you and forgive you
Even if you cause me pity I've thrown off your chains

SONG MEANING

Paulina Rubio’s “El Último Adiós” is a fiery farewell that mixes heartbreak with hard-earned empowerment. The Mexican pop icon paints the city streets as suddenly wider and emptier after her lover’s departure, showing how absence can stretch time and space. Yet instead of drowning in sorrow, she sharpens her resolve: “Por las buenas soy buena, por las malas lo dudo” (“When treated well I’m good, when treated badly I doubt it”). The song flips from vulnerable imagery—cold daggers of loneliness—into a bold ranchera chorus where she throws off her ex’s chains and refuses forgiveness, no matter how many tears or pleas come her way.

At its core, the track is a celebration of self-respect. Rubio acknowledges the pain of lost love but draws a clear line between losing her soul and losing her reason. By dedicating this spirited ranchera as “the last goodbye,” she turns sorrow into strength, letting listeners dance, sing, and heal along with her fierce declaration of independence.
