A donde quiera que voy me acuerdo de ti.
Wherever I go, I remember you.
a donde quiera que estoy te estoy mirando
Wherever I am, I am watching you.
el viento me trae tu voz
The wind brings me your voice.
no hay música que oiga yo
There’s no music I hear,
que no me deje llorando
That doesn’t leave me crying.
qué tierra pisando estás?
What land are you stepping on?
qué estrellas te alumbraran?
What stars will shine on you?
tu camino bueno o malo,
Your path, good or bad,
que boca borrando esta?
What lips are erasing this?
los besos que yo te di
The kisses I gave you.
corazoncito tirano.
little tyrant heart.
A donde quiera que voy me acuerdo de ti,
Wherever I go, I remember you,
mi alma se muere por ir juntito a tu alma
my soul is dying to be right next to your soul
el mar sin agua no es mar
the sea without water is not a sea
el sol sin luz nunca es sol
the sun without light is never a sun
y yo sin ti no soy nada.
and I without you am nothing.
