Hoy que te vuelvo a ver, sigo sin entender
Today that I see you again, I still don't understand
aunque tambien lo se, no es el momento,
although I know too, it's not the time,
y tengo que resignarme con solo volverte a ver.
and I have to accept just seeing you again.
Quien tiene la verdad, quien sabe que es mejor
Who holds the truth, who knows what's best
no sera que es peor que en cada encuentro confiese cuanto te amo y luego te diga adios
could it be worse that with each meeting I confess how much I love you and then say goodbye?
Ojala que seas tu que sea y yo y que juntos seamos
I hope it's you, and it's me, and that together we are
los que en las fotos salgamos brindando de alegria
the ones in the photos toasting with joy
ojala que seas tu que sea yo y que juntos seamos
I hope it's you, and it's me, and that together we are
Los que terminen viviendo su vida su fantasia hecha realidad
the ones who end up living their lives, their fantasies come true.
ojala que te espere y me esperes. ojala
I hope that you wait for me and I wait for you. I hope
Lo nuestro va mas haya, no es solo terrenal
What we have goes beyond, it's not just earthly
y no es casualidad que se repita, son tantas las coincidencias
and it's not a coincidence that it repeats, there are so many coincidences
nuestras almas se necesitan!
our souls need each other!
Ojala que seas tu que sea y yo y que juntos seamos
I hope that it's you who will be, and I, and together we will be
los que en las fotos salgamos brindando de alegria
those who appear in the photos, toasting with joy
ojala que seas tu que sea yo y que juntos seamos
I hope that it's you who will be, and I, and together we will be
Los que terminen viviendo su vida su fantasia hecha

ojala que te espere y me esperes. ojala

Ojala que despierte siempre conmigo

ojala seas tu ¡hay!, la madre de mis hijos
I hope it's you, oh!, the mother of my children
ojala envejezca escribiendo memorias
I hope I grow old writing memories
y que al verte a los ojos se repita nuestra historia,
and that looking into your eyes our story repeats itself,
nuestra historia!
