Anocheció Lyrics in English Sergio Contreras

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Anocheció by Sergio Contreras from Spanish to English.
Night fell and the night was witness
Of how our eyes
Cried tears of love
Night fell and the night was witness
Of how our lips
Spoke sorrows, little sorrows of love
Sometimes things don't turn out like one wants
I made plans not to see you again
And having you only that night with me
Was maybe my worst punishment, and I stayed quiet
And I kissed you
I didn't let you understand that the more I kissed you
The more I wanted to see you again
That I thought of you at every nightfall
I don't know why but I got hooked on you
Your lips brushed something more than my skin
Eight, nine or ten o'clock caught us
Knowing that I wouldn't have you again
Perfect plan
Master of all this
One more night
One more episode
Those pretty words that are said sometimes
Without feeling
She was the girl
Prettiest my eyes could see
Sultana princess
She took away our beach and my love
Night fell and the night was witness
Of how our eyes
They cried tears of love
Night fell and the night was witness
Of how our lips
Spoke sorrows, little sorrows of love
Night fell
And you left me hooked on your scent
I earned a diploma for being the biggest fool
For letting you go when I wanted to survive with you
I need more of your hands that, when grazing my skin
Let me glimpse
How love is on the inside
And now I look for you and I can't find you
My own vanity made me lose you
Perhaps scared by my weakest side
Without knowing that that night would be
The one that would mark you forever on my skin
Till madness, searching without knowing
Not a single clue of that nightfall
Stayed in my being
Broke my schemes
And now that you're not here, it burns me
She was the girl
Prettiest my eyes could see
Sultana princess
She took away our beach and my love
Night fell and the night was witness
Of how our eyes
They cried tears of love
Night fell and the night was witness
Of how our lips
Spoke sorrows, little sorrows of love
Night fell
Night fell and the night was witness
Of how our eyes
They cried tears of love
Night fell and the night was witness
Of how our lips
Spoke sorrows, little sorrows of love

SONG MEANING

Anocheció paints a cinematic snapshot of a one-night encounter that unexpectedly blossoms into deep attachment. Under the watchful eyes of the night, two lovers share tears, kisses, and whispered regrets, believing their time together will disappear with the sunrise. The singer confesses that what was meant to be a brief adventure turns into his worst punishment: the more he kisses her, the more he wants to see her again. Pride keeps him silent, and by morning she is gone, leaving only the scent of her perfume and the echo of words spoken without real commitment.

What follows is a heartfelt mix of nostalgia and self-reproach. He realizes his own vanity and fear pushed her away, yet the memory of that night keeps burning in his mind. The track blends Sergio Contreras’s flamenco roots with urban pop to underscore the contrast between passion and loss. In the end, Anocheció is a lesson about how fleeting moments can mark us forever, and how admitting love too late can turn a perfect night into lifelong longing.
