Corazón salvaje [English translation]

And just how do I make life pay me back,

When everything has always gone wrong?

How can I heal so many wounds,

If there's still blood being shed?

When the price of life is so hard to pay for.

How can I plead with destiny,

Being that I am used to taking by force?

But today that I have found you

Do not move away from me

Let them not shatter our dreams

Let nobody dare separate us

[Refrain]

I will command life

That it pay me back with you

That it teach me the meaning of pain

Because it was punishment enough

To not have met you 1

I will demand that I stop being a perpetual beggar of love

A savage heart

How can I explain to my instincts

That my search is over with you?

And that two paths so different from one another

At some point were united by time

Who would have thought? That I'd give up my freedom unconditionally

Whoa whoa whoa...

[Refrain]

I will command life

That it pay me back with you

That it teach me the meaning of pain

Because it was punishment enough

To not have met you

I will demand that I stop being a perpetual beggar of love

A savage heart

1. To not have met you "before," here the before is implied, as the song was written specifically for the story
