Qué Hiciste Lyrics in English Jennifer Lopez

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Qué Hiciste by Jennifer Lopez from Spanish to English.
Verse 1
Yesterday we both dreamed of a perfect world
Yesterday our lips had words to spare
Because in our eyes we spied on each other's soul
And the truth didn't waver in your gaze
Yesterday we promised each other that we'd conquer the whole world
Yesterday you swore to me that this love would be eternal
Because messing up once is enough
To learn what it is to love sincerely
Chorus 1
What did you do?
Today you destroyed hope with your pride
Today you clouded my gaze with your rage
You erased our whole story with your anger
And you confused so much love that I was giving you
With permission to break my soul like that
What did you do?
You forced us to destroy the dawns
And our nights were erased by your words
My dreams ended with your lies
You forgot that it was love that mattered
And with your hands you tore down our house
Verse 2
Tomorrow, when a new day dawns in my universe
Tomorrow I won't see your name written among my verses
I won't hear words of repentance
I'll ignore your remorse without sorrow
Tomorrow I'll forget that yesterday I was your faithful lover
Tomorrow there won't even be reasons to hate you
I'll erase all your dreams from my dreams
May the wind carry your memories away forever
Chorus 2
What did you do?
You forced us to destroy the dawns
And our nights were erased by your words
My dreams ended with your lies
You forgot that it was love that mattered
And with your hands you tore down our house
Bridge
And you confused so much love that I was giving you
As permission to break my soul like that
Chorus 3
What did you do?
You forced us to destroy the dawns
And our nights were erased by your words
My dreams ended with your lies
You forgot that it was love that mattered
And with your hands you tore down our house

SONG MEANING

Qué Hiciste (“What Did You Do”) is Jennifer Lopez at her most dramatic. Over a driving pop‐rock beat spiced with Latin flair, she steps into the role of a woman who wakes up from a perfect love dream and finds only ruins. Yesterday they were planning to conquer the world together, reading each other’s souls through their eyes. Today, pride, rage, and betrayal have wiped that shared future clean. The repeated question ¿Qué hiciste? is both an accusation and a gasp of disbelief at how quickly someone can turn love into rubble.

Yet the song is more than heartbreak. It is a declaration of survival. After listing every shattered promise, the singer draws a bright line: tomorrow your name will be erased, your memories scattered by the wind, and I will write a new universe without you. The lyrics move from nostalgia to fury to fierce independence, making the track a cathartic anthem for anyone who has watched a once‐glorious relationship crumble and decided to rise stronger from the ashes.
