Ni Una Sola Palabra Lyrics in English Paulina Rubio

Home / Lyrics Translation / Paulina Rubio / Ni Una Sola Palabra

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Ni Una Sola Palabra by Paulina Rubio from Spanish to English.

She's screaming

I already know that she doesn't get it

The heart listens to your head

But where are you going?

Are you listening to me?

What about your pride?

What had we agreed?

The night starts and with it my journey

I look for you alone in my best dress

But where are you?

What is it that has happened?

What is it that is left after so many years?

I look at those eyes that once looked at me

I seek your mouth, your hands, your hugs

But you don't feel anything

And you disguise yourself as cordiality

Not a single word

No gestures nor passionate looks

Not a trace of the kisses that you used to give me

Until dawn

Not one of the smiles

For which every night and every day

These eyes sob

In which now, you see yourself

Like a toy that crashes against a wall

I go out to meet you

And I get lost as soon as I search

An opportunity, a miracle, or a spell

To turn beautiful and you, handsome with me

Before the eyes that once looked at me

I turn my back and take a few steps

And I chalk up another defeat

While my mouth says 'never again'

Not a single word

No gestures nor passionate looks

Not a trace of the kisses that you used to give me

Until dawn

Not one of the smiles

For which every night and every day

These eyes sob

In which now, you see yourself

It can't be, it's not me

My heart weighs so much

For not being of ice when the sky

Asks me for patience

Not a single word

No gestures nor passionate looks

Not a trace of the kisses that you used to give me

Until dawn

Not one of the smiles

For which every night and every day

These eyes sob

In which now, you see yourself

Ah-ah-ah-ahha

SONG MEANING

Ni Una Sola Palabra paints the vivid scene of a love that has gone painfully quiet. Mexican pop icon Paulina Rubio steps into the shoes of someone who still dresses up, shows up, and hopes for even the tiniest spark, yet is met with a partner who offers absolutely nothing back—not a word, not a look, not a kiss. The song captures that frustrating moment when the heart is screaming questions, but the other person’s silence answers them all.

Behind its catchy beat, the track explores the emotional tug-of-war between pride and vulnerability. We feel the narrator’s struggle to accept that a once-passionate connection has frozen over, leaving her to measure each fresh attempt as just “otra derrota” (another defeat). In short, it is a pop anthem for anyone who has ever stared into familiar eyes and realized the love inside them has vanished—set to a rhythm that still makes you want to dance your heartbreak away.
