La timidez, era yo
Shyness, that was me
Ese que te amó
The one who loved you
Cuando ni tú sabías la palabra
When you didn't even know the word
El más audaz que te besó
The boldest one who kissed you
Por primera vez
For the first time
Ese que estrenó tu cuerpo, fui yo
The one who unveiled your body, that was me
El primero que puso a mil tu corazón
The first to make your heart race
Que te hizo descubrir, amada
Who made you discover, my love
Tu propio amor, como si nada
Your own love, as if it were nothing
Ese primer suspiro, yo lo fui
That first sigh, I was it
Por eso estoy aquí
That's why I'm here
Viviendo para ti
Living for you
Ese galán era yo
That gallant was me
El que se marchó
The one who left
Cuando te dio en la piel la luz del día
When the daylight kissed your skin
El que voló junto a ti
The one who flew alongside you
Por primera vez
For the first time
Cuando nadie nos veía, fui yo
When no one saw us, that was me
El primero que puso a mil tu corazón
The first to make your heart race
Que te hizo descubrir, amada
Who made you discover, my love
Tu propio amor como si nada
Your own love, as if it were nothing
Ese primer suspiro, yo lo fui
That first sigh, I was it
Por eso estoy aquí, amada
That's why I'm here, my love
El primero que puso a mil tu corazón
The first to make your heart race
Que te hizo descubrir, amada
Who made you discover, my love
Tu propio amor, como si nada
Your own love, as if it were nothing
Ese primer suspiro, yo lo fui
That first sigh, I was it
Por eso estoy aquí
That's why I'm here
Viviendo para ti
Living for you
