Para No Olvidar Lyrics in English Los Rodríguez

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Para No Olvidar by Los Rodríguez from Spanish to English.

From a lost time

Up to this point tonight has come

A found memory

To stay with me

From a distant time

Up to this point has come tonight

Another forbidden memory

Forgotten in oblivion

Sentimentally to fix it

I'm gonna stay with you forever

But it may be that I find you lately

Meanwhile I get confused with the people

Sentimentally ours for now

Is the nest that oblivion has destroyed

And if the wind returns me to your shores

Calmly

It'll be asleep

Calmly

It'll be asleep

From a distant time

Lost, up to this point it has come

Without knocking on my door, meddling memory

From a forgotten time

A wet memory has come

From a rainy afternoon

Of your tangled hair

Like every time that the roles get switched

I'm gonna fall asleep on your waist

And if the smug day wakes me

Let me stay a bit up in the heights

Why count the time that we have left

Why count the time that has gone

If living is a gift and a present

Half awake

Half asleep

Half open

Half asleep

I only know that I know nothing about your life

I only got hung up once in the past

I presented my credentials to your laugh

And you drove a spear into my side

I think that I didn't let you play with fire

We only said things in each other's ear

And if one day I found you some morning

It'll be possible

It'll be asleep

It'll be possible

It'll be asleep

And if one day I found you some morning

It'll be possible, it'll be asleep

It'll be possible

It'll be asleep

SONG MEANING

“Para No Olvidar” invites us into a twilight zone where memories creep in without knocking, filling the room with the scent of rain-soaked streets and the echo of whispered secrets. The singer drifts between wakefulness and sleep, catching fleeting images of a past love: tangled hair, hushed confessions, and the soft sting of a goodbye that never quite healed. Each memory is a stubborn guest, determined to stay so the heart will not forget, even while time conspires to erase every trace.

Under its playful melody, the song wrestles with nostalgia and the fear of oblivion. It asks why we should measure life in minutes when every heartbeat is a present waiting to be opened. Half dream, half reality, the narrator clings to the hope of one more chance encounter—maybe at dawn, maybe only in dreams—because in remembering, he keeps the story alive. It is a gentle reminder that love and memory are twins: fragile, restless, and forever dancing at the edge of sleep.
