Te perdí por culpa de un error

I lost you because of a mistake

Te perdí y destrocé mi corazón

I lost you and shattered my heart

Y ante ti vuelvo al fin a llorar y a suplicar

And before you, I finally come to cry and plead

Perdóname, he sido ingrato

Forgive me, I’ve been ungrateful

Perdóname, te quiero tanto

Forgive me, I love you so much

Que yo sin ti no sé vivir mi amor

That without you, I don’t know how to live, my love

Que yo sin ti voy a morir de dolor

That without you, I’ll die of pain

Perdóname, te necesito

Forgive me, I need you

Perdóname, te lo suplico

Forgive me, I beg you

Vuelve otra vez, recuerda aquel ayer

Come back again, remember that yesterday

Vuelve otra vez a darme tu querer (tu querer)
