Abrázame muy fuerte [English translation]

When you are with me

is when I say

that it was worth the pain—

all—all of it that I have suffered.

I don't yet know if this is a dream

or a reality.

But when I am with you is when I say

that this love that I feel

exists because you earned it.

When speaking to you of love, it is a new dawn for me.

Weeping with happiness

by your side, I feel that I am alive.

Nothing is like it was yesterday.

Hold me because time passes and never forgives.

It has wreaked havoc on my people as on myself.

Hold me because time is evil and a very cruel friend.

Hold me because time is gold if you are together with me.

Hold me tight, much tighter, tighter than ever—

hold me forever.

Now that you are with me,

I don't know if time is passing or you have stopped it.

This is how I want to be forever.

I make the most of you being with me.

I thank you for every moment of my life.

When you gaze up towards the sky,

every star that you see, love, is an "I love you."

Hold me because time wounds with heaven as a witness.

Because time is cruel and because nobody wants to do so, I tell you:

hold me tight, love, keep me by your side.

I want to thank you, love, for everything you have given me.

I want to share in one way or another every day.

I have never been in love with pain

but it was my turn to suffer when I trusted and believed

in someone who swore she gave her life to me.

Hold me because time passes and does not stop.

Hold me tighter, love, because time works against us.

Hold me because God forgives but time does not.

Hold me because it matters not who is the one.

Hold me because time passes and it never forgives.

It has wreaked havoc on my people as on myself.

Hold me because time is evil and a very cruel friend.

Hold me very tightly, my love.

Hold me!

Hold me!

Hold me!

Hold me!
