Translation of the song lyrics Si Yo Quisiera - Los Lobos

Si Yo Quisiera (original)

Si quisiera despreciar te despreciaba
Si quisiera aborrecer te aborrecia
Si te fueras por tu ausencia no lloraba
Y negara que un tiempo fuistes mia
Es muy cierto que llore cuando era nino
Y tambien cuando sufrian mi pobres padres
Pero nunca llorare por un carino, eso lo hacen
Solamente los cobardes
Se que tienes muchas ganas de dejarme
Pero tienes mucho miedo que te siga
Cunado quieras ve a formar tu mundo aparte
Hasta nunca vete y Dios que te bendiga
Yo jamas he renegado de mi suerte
Y te pierdo porque ya era mi destino
Si no tengo ya motivos pa quererte
Y hay pa siempre cada quien por su camino
Se que tienes muchas ganas que dejarme
Pero tienes mucho miedo que te siga
Cunado quieras ve a formar tu mundo aparte
Hasta nunca vete y Dios que te bendiga

(translation)

If I wanted to despise you, I despised you
If I wanted to hate you, I hate you
If you left because of your absence I wouldn't cry
And I will deny that once you were mine
It is very true that I cried when I was a child
And also when my poor parents suffered
But I'll never cry for love, that's what they do
only cowards
I know you really want to leave me
But you are very afraid that I will follow you
Whenever you want, go make your world apart
See you never go and God bless you
I have never denied my luck
And I lose you because it was already my destiny
If I no longer have reasons to love you
And there is always everyone on their way
I know you really want to leave me
But you are very afraid that I will follow you
Whenever you want, go make your world apart
See you never go and God bless you
