Yo no nací para amar [English translation]

At the age of sixteen,

I longed so much

for a love that never happened.

I always searched for it.

All of my friends

found themselves

in the same situation.

And then I saw

how they changed

their ways of living.

Each found a love—

each of them

smiling, very happy—

but not me.

A loneliness

increasingly sad

and darker

came over me.

And, at that age,

they all asked why—

so I always said:

I was not born to love.

No one was born for me.

I stayed alone,

just a crazy dreamer.

I was not born to love.

No one was born for me.

My dreams never

became a reality.

I always looked for it,

but I could never

find that love—

I always hoped for it.

And all the while I waited,

that love never came.

Today, my loneliness

increasingly sad

and darker than you can see—

today, at this age,

my friends still ask me

and it is very sad to answer:

I was not born to love.

No one was born for me.

I stayed alone,

just a crazy dreamer.

I was not born to love.

No one was born for me.

My dreams never

became a reality.

I was not born to love.

No one was born for me.

My dreams never

became a reality.

I was not born to love.
