Aprendiste a volar, mi vida
Pues te vas a volar
Échale Chente
You learned to fly, my love
So now you’re going to fly
Go ahead, Chente
Yo te di de lo bueno
Que traía entre mis manos
Te forme un mundo nuevo
Yo te di de mi pan
Me bebí de tus ansias
Aquel trago maldito
Y hoy cruzada de brazos
Me dices que te vas
I gave you the best
That I had in my hands
I created a new world for you
I shared my bread with you
I drank from your desires,
That cursed drink
And now with arms crossed
You tell me that you’re leaving
Ni rencores ni nada
Solamente tus besos
Con permiso cariño
Me los voy a quedar
Y de aquellas cartas
De amor y de versos
Juro por mi madre
Llegando a mi casa las voy a quemar
No hard feelings, nothing at all
Just your kisses
With your permission, my love
I’m going to keep them
And those letters
Full of love and poems
I swear by my mother
When I get home, I’m going to burn them
Aprendiste a volar
Pues te vas a volar
Pero no por mi cielo
Que con tanta ternura
Yo te quise entregar
Aprendiste a volar
Pues te vas a volar
Y ojalá que en tu cielo
No se canse tu vuelo
Porque vas a llorar
You learned to fly
So you’re going to fly
But not through my sky
The one I lovingly wanted to give you
You learned to fly
So you’re going to fly
And I hope in your sky
Your wings don’t tire
Because you will cry
Aprendiste a volar
Pues te vas a volar
Pero no por mi cielo
Que con tanta ternura
Yo te quise entregar
Aprendiste a volar
Pues te vas a volar
Y ojalá que en tu cielo
No se canse tu vuelo
Porque vas a llorar
You learned to fly
So you’re going to fly
But not through my sky
The one I lovingly wanted to give you
You learned to fly
So you’re going to fly
And I hope in your sky
Your wings don’t tire
Because you will cry
Aprendiste a volar, mi vida
Pues te vas a volar
You learned to fly, my love
So now you’re going to fly
