Oh y oh boy
Oh and oh boy
It wasn't looooove
Yeah
One love, We go
Oh ah oh ah (Kafu Banton again)
Oh ah oh ah
Almirante
Admiral
Algo te voy a contar
Something I’m going to tell you
Es algo personal y muy confidencial
Something personal and very confidential
En el amor me ha ido mal
In love, it’s gone badly for me
No logro encontrar, la ruta ideal
I can’t find the ideal route
A mi me puede pasar
It could happen to me
Que tenga que llorar, y me paguen igual
That I have to cry and still get paid the same
Y volando se marchó oh oh
And like that, she flew away—oh oh
Y solito te dejo
I’ll leave you on your own
Almirante
Admiral
¿Cómo me pudo pasar?
How could this have happened to me?
Pero hay algo que quiero decirte Kafu por eso te voy a explicar yeahh
But there’s something I want to tell you, Kafu—so I’m gonna explain it, yeahh
Ella,
She,
La que no te quiere, ahora como llora sólo porque no te tiene
The one who doesn’t want you—now she’s crying only because she doesn’t have you
Ella,
She,
Cómo se reía, ahora me da pena su mirada triste y fría
How she used to laugh—now I feel sorry for her sad, cold gaze
Ella,
She,
Era tan bonita, ahora ni se peina ni su cara se maquilla
She was so beautiful; now she doesn’t even comb her hair, nor does she put on makeup
Ella,
She,
Cómo sufre ahora, ahora llora llora porque no te tiene a tiii
How she suffers now—now she cries, cries, because she doesn’t have you iii
Tanto llorar no arregla na na na
All that crying changes nothing, nah nah nah
Arregla na na na (no arregla na)
Changes nothing, nah nah nah (doesn’t change a thing)
Ya no hay tiempo de platicar
There’s no time left to talk
Lo nuestro llegó a su final, conozco ese truco ya
Ours has come to an end—I know that trick already
No tenemos nada que hablar,
We don’t have anything to talk about,
ya me cansé de esperar, mi paciencia está a punto de estallar
I’m so tired of waiting—my patience is about to burst
Y te tiene confundido, esa relación te hizo meterte en líos, h
And it’s got you all confused; that relationship got you into trouble, uh
a tirado todo tu amor al olvido y tiene todo tu corazón partido oh
It’s thrown all your love into oblivion and left your whole heart shattered, oh
Y volando se marchó oh oh
And flying away, it’s gone—oh oh
Y solito te dejo
And I’ll leave you all alone
Almirante
Admiral
¿Cómo me pudo pasar?

Pero hay algo que quiero decirte Kafu por eso te voy a explicar yeahh
But there’s something I want to tell you, Kafu—so I’m gonna explain it to you, yeahh
Ella,
She,
La que no te quiere, ahora como llora sólo porque no te tiene
The one who didn’t want you—now she only cries because she doesn’t have you
Ella,
She,
Cómo se reía, ahora me da pena su mirada triste y fría
How she used to laugh—now her gaze makes me feel sorry, sad and cold
Ella,
She,
Era tan bonita, ahora ni se peina ni su cara se maquilla
She used to be so beautiful—now she doesn’t even fix her hair, and her face doesn’t wear makeup
Ella,
She,
Cómo sufre ahora, ahora llora llora porque no te tiene a tiii
How she suffers now—she cries and cries because she doesn’t have you—tii
Tanto llorar no arregla na na na
All that crying won’t fix a thing, na na na
Arregla na na na (no arregla na)
Fix it, na na na (won’t fix a thing)
