¡Qué Bueno, Qué Bueno! Lyrics in English Jarabe De Palo , Jorge Drexler

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song ¡Qué Bueno, Qué Bueno! by Jarabe De Palo from Spanish to English.
I love you
Although right now it doesn't matter
Although I don't show it to you
I love you
I love you
Although it seems that I forget you
Although you think that it's not true
That's what I feel
I like it
To think that I like you
To know that I love you
How good, how good!
I like it
To be the owner of your jealousy
To wake up and realize
How much I love you
To love you
Loving you isn't enough
Loving you is not understanding you
That I keep loving you
To love you
Loving you is remembering
Loving you is deserving you
More than I deserve you
I like it
To think that I like you
To know that I love you
How good, how good!
I like it
To be the owner of your jealousy
To wake up and realize
How much I love you
I have you, I lose you
I have you, I lose you
I grab you, I let you go
I grab you, I let you go
You leave and I wait for you
You leave and I wait for you
I look for you, I find you
You come closer, I move away
You come closer, I move away
I listen to you, I tell you
I listen to you, I tell you
I buy you, I sell you
I buy you, I sell you
I hate you, I love you
You give in, I give in
You kiss me, I bite you
I lick you, I smell you
How good, how good!
I ask you, I offer you
I hug you, I squeeze you
I fall asleep, I dream of you
How good, how good!
I love you
That I love you
And what I miss the most
What I miss the most
Is that I don't love you more
More, much more
How much I love you
I miss you
Sometimes too much
Your portrait on the wall
Your portrait on the wall
A little letter in the mail
Little letter from who?
To tell you that I love you
How good, how good!
How good, how good!
How good, how good!
How good, how good!
How good, how good!
How good, how good!

SONG MEANING

¡Qué Bueno, Qué Bueno! is a lively declaration of love where Jarabe de Palo and Jorge Drexler playfully juggle their feelings. From the very first te quiero the singer admits he is not always great at showing affection, yet his devotion is undeniable. The chorus bursts with the joyful exclamation ¡qué bueno! celebrating every sweet, messy, and contradictory part of being in love: liking the jealousy, waking up grateful, and cherishing the simple fact that the other person exists.

The verses tumble through a rapid-fire list of opposites—te tengo, te pierdo; te odio, te quiero—illustrating love’s push-and-pull rhythm. This back-and-forth captures the excitement, confusion, and intensity of a relationship that feels bigger than words. By the end, the singer realizes that what he misses most is the impossibility of loving even more than he already does. It is an upbeat tribute to imperfect yet wholehearted love, wrapping complex emotions in an infectious, feel-good refrain.
