Translation:
Te vas porque yo quiero que te vayas.
A la hora que yo quiera te detengo.
Yo sé que mi cariño te hace falta
Porque quieras o no yo soy tu dueño.
You leave because I want you to leave.
At whatever time I want, I (can) stop you.
I know that you need my affection,
Because whether you want it or not, I am your boss.
Yo quiero que te vayas por el mundo,
Y quiero que conozcas mucha gente.
Yo quiero que te besen otros labios
Para que me compares hoy como siempre.
I want you to travel the world, [*lit. I want you to go through the world]
And I want you to meet many people.
I want other lips to kiss you
So that you can compare me like always.
----------------------------------------
Si encuentras un amor que te comprenda
Y sientas que te quiere más que nadie...
If you find a love that understands you
And you feel that they love you more than anyone...
Entonces yo daré la media vuelta
Y me iré con el sol cuando muera la tarde.
(x2)
Then I will turn around
And I will leave with the sun when the afternoon dies.
(x2)
