Devoción Lyrics in English Shakira

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Devoción by Shakira from Spanish to English.
I didn't think that it would matter to me
The tone of your message
You left me the feeling that I had been one more burden
In your luggage
I still cling to your love
Like a hot iron
I made myself so resistant to pain
And to disappointment lately
I believe, I believe
Not in what they tell me but only in what I see
And from what I see I believe
That you've already forgotten me
I feel that I'm losing you, there's no signal
Hello hello, is anyone there?
So much indifference hurts me
Hello hello, I'm still here
I don't answer to another helm
Than to this strange devotion to you
The collapse of loneliness
Scratched you on the side
There wasn't a better place to be
After the love that by your side
I believe, I believe
Not in what they tell me but only in what I see
And from what I see I believe
That you've already forgotten me
I feel that I'm losing you, there's no signal
Hello hello, is anyone there?
So much indifference hurts me
Hello hello, I'm still here
I don't answer to another helm
Than to this strange devotion to you
There's no fire exit
I burn inside
There's no distance between us
I feel that I'm losing you, there's no signal
Hello hello, is anyone there?
So much indifference hurts me
Hello hello, I'm still here
I don't answer to another helm
Than to this strange devotion to you

SONG MEANING

Ready for an emotional roller-coaster? In “Devoción,” Colombian superstar Shakira turns a simple phone call into a heart-pounding drama. The singer is stuck in that nerve-racking moment when you send a message, see no reply, and your brain fills the silence with worst-case scenarios. Each “Aló, aló” is a desperate check for life on the other end, while every unanswered ring feels like proof that the other person has already moved on.

Beneath the catchy melody lie raw confessions: she clings to a love that scorches like “un hierro caliente,” refuses to steer by “otro timón” except this strange devotion, and admits there is “no fire exit” from the flames inside her. If you have ever waited for a text that never came, “Devoción” will hit home, reminding you how devotion can be both a warm embrace and a burning cage.
