No Mires Atras Lyrics in English Bahiano
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song No Mires Atras by Bahiano from Spanish to English.
No Mires Hacia Atrás
Don't look back
Desperté justo al llegar en un avión de vuelo bien rasante
I woke up just as I arrived on a very low-flying plane
Y atrás quedo una voz ,quedo un hogar partido en 2
and behind remained a voice, a home split in two
No mires hacia atrás dice el cartel
Don't look back, says the sign
Todos creen saber que tienes que hacer y qué es lo mejor
everyone thinks they know what you have to do and what's best
Tuve tu amor y te lo di y después me perdí
I had your love and gave it to you, then I got lost
Ahora sé que no sé, pero hay que seguir
now I know I don't know, but we must go on
Caminé por la ciudad que alguna vez nos envolvió a los 2
I walked through the city that once enveloped us both
Y atrás que el porqué y hoy el quizá nos dice adiós
and the 'why' remained behind, and today the 'perhaps' tells us goodbye
No mires hacia atrás grabo en mi piel
Don't look back, I engrave on my skin
Todos creen saber tu necesidad y como olvidar
everyone thinks they know your needs and how to forget
Y como tratar de no volver
and how to try not to return
Tuve tu amor y te lo di y después me perdí
I had your love and gave it to you, then I got lost
Ahora sé que no sé, pero hay que seguir
now I know I don't know, but we must go on
Tú serás hoy para mí esa luz que no encendí
Today you'll be for me that light I didn't turn on
Ahora sé que tal vez deba ser así
now I know maybe it should be this way
Lejos ya de ti
Already far from you
Did you like this lyrics translation?
rasante — low-flying / skimming
Rasante describes something that is low-flying or skimming close to a surface. It's a vivid and less common word that paints a clear picture.
In the song, the lyrics mention "un avión de vuelo bien rasante" (a very low-flying plane). This imagery immediately sets a dramatic and perhaps slightly unsettling tone, suggesting a swift and impactful arrival or departure, which ties into the theme of looking back and moving forward.
