Paroles et traduction José Alfredo Jiménez - No Te Comprendí

No Te Comprendí

Ay, amorcito santo
¿Dónde andas?

Por ese amor que con tus labios me juraste
Te quise hacer, como una vez, te había soñado
Pero no tuve ni derecho a preguntarte
¿De dónde vienes? ¿Qué tan negro es tu pasado?

Llegaste a mí como las aguas de los mares
Con tanta fuerza que en tus brazos me prendí

Tal vez, venías de recorrer muchos lugares
De mundos tan distintos, que no te comprendí
Tal vez, los hombres que te amaron, te engañaron
¿Y quién sabe qué buscabas? Yo no te comprendí

Ni te comprenderé nunca, Chiquita
Aah-ah-ja-ja-jay

Llegaste a mí como las aguas de los mares
Con tanta fuerza que en tus brazos me prendí

Tal vez, venías de recorrer muchos lugares
De mundos tan distintos que no te comprendí
Tal vez, los hombres que te amaron, te engañaron
¿Quién sabe que buscabas? Yo no te comprendí

I Didn't Understand You

Oh, my darling sweetheart
Where are you?

For the love you swore to me with your lips
I wanted to treat you like I had once dreamt
But I didn't even have the right to ask
Where you come from? How dark is your past?

You came to me like the waters of the seas
With so much force that I clung to your arms

Perhaps you had come from traveling many places
From worlds so different that I didn't understand you
Perhaps the men who loved you deceived you
And who knows what you were looking for? I didn't understand you

I will never understand you, little girl
Aah-ah-ha-ha-hay

You came to me like the waters of the seas
With so much force that I clung to your arms

Perhaps you had come from traveling many places
From worlds so different that I didn't understand you
Perhaps the men who loved you deceived you
Who knows what you were looking for? I didn't understand you
