Tu Recuerdo Lyrics in English Ricky Martin , Chambao

Home / Lyrics Translation / Ricky Martin / Tu Recuerdo

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Tu Recuerdo by Ricky Martin from Spanish to English.

Your memory is still here

Like a downpour

It crashes hard over me

But over a slow flame

It burns and soaks me all the same

And I no longer know what to think

If your memory does me good or does me harm

A gray kiss, a white kiss

Everything depends on the place

That I left, that's clear

But your memory doesn't go away

I feel your lips on summer nights

There they are, watching over me in my solitude

But sometimes they want to kill me

Your memory is still here

Like a downpour

It crashes hard over me

But over a slow flame

It burns and soaks me all the same

And I no longer know what to think

If your memory does me good or does me harm

Sometimes gray, sometimes white

Everything depends on the place

That you left, that's in the past

I know that I have to forget you

But I lit a little candle to all my saints

There it is, so that you think a lot about me

Don't stop thinking about me

Your memory is still here

Like a downpour

It crashes hard over me

But over a slow flame

It burns and soaks me all the same

And I no longer know what to think

If your memory does me good or does me harm

Think about me, it's antidote and poison to the heart

It does you good, it burns and soaks, it comes and goes

Where are you? Trapped among the verses

And the goodbye

Like a May downpour

And it falls so hard that it even

Burns me down to the skin

And I no longer know what to think

If your memory does me good or does me harm

But it breaks, it breaks the heart

I know that I have to forget you

If your memory does me good or does me harm

SONG MEANING

In “Tu Recuerdo,” Ricky Martin joins the flamenco-fusion group Chambao to capture the tug-of-war between longing and liberation. The memory of a past love is compared to “un aguacero” – a sudden rainstorm – that crashes down and then lingers a fuego lento, burning and drenching the heart at the same time. The singer can’t decide if this flood of nostalgia is a blessing or a curse.

As the verses swing between un beso gris and un beso blanco, we feel the push and pull of hope and heartache. He lights candles to the saints so the ex will think of him, yet he knows he must forget. The chorus repeats like the downpour itself, stamping the contradiction on his mind: antídoto y veneno. With its vivid metaphors and smooth Latin groove, the song lets you practice Spanish while exploring how love can be both soothing water and scorching fire.
