Tus Desprecios Lyrics in English Selena

Home / Lyrics Translation / Selena / Tus Desprecios

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Tus Desprecios by Selena from Spanish to English.

Your slights are

the ones that

are killing my heart

And your snubs

are like daggers

that you're stabbing into me

And I no longer know what to do

to win back your love

and that you want me again

Day after day

Little by little

Our love

because of your slights

is ending

Because I say here

and you tell me there

And if I say yes

you tell me never

And if I want to go out

you want to stay

I don't know why

you don't love me anymore

I tell you that I love you

and you no longer answer

I offer you kisses

and you dodge me

You can't imagine

how much it hurts

to love you so much

and you no longer love me

Your slights are

the ones that

are killing my heart

And your snubs

are like daggers

that you're stabbing into me

And I no longer know what to do

to win back your love

and that you want me again

Day after day

Little by little

Our love

because of your slights

is ending

Because I say here

and you tell me there

And if I say yes

you tell me never

And if I want to go out

you want to stay

I don't know why

you don't love me anymore

I tell you that I love you

and you no longer answer

I offer you kisses

and you dodge me

You can't imagine

how much it hurts

to love you so much

and you no longer love me

Because I say here

and you tell me there

And if I say yes

you tell me never

And if I want to go out

you want to stay

I don't know why

you don't love me anymore

I tell you that I love you

and you no longer answer

I offer you kisses

and you dodge me

You can't imagine

how much it hurts

to love you so much

and you no longer love me

SONG MEANING

Heartbreak has never sounded so catchy. In “Tus Desprecios,” Selena pours her heart into a story of one–sided love, painting each cold shoulder and unanswered “I love you” as a sharp dagger. The lyrics follow a lover who feels every shrug, every dismissal, slowly “killing” her heart. She tries everything to win back affection, yet finds herself stuck in a painful tug-of-war: when she says “here,” her partner says “there”; when she offers a kiss, she only gets turned away.

The song becomes a bittersweet anthem about how indifference can chip away at even the strongest romance. Day by day, the relationship fades, not because of one dramatic fight, but through a drip-feed of neglect. Selena’s heartfelt delivery turns this emotional struggle into a relatable lesson: love needs reciprocity. Without it, even the deepest feelings can wither, leaving only the sting of rejection and the echo of what once was.
