Y Si Te Vas Lyrics in English by Duki
Duki imagines what happens if a woman leaves: “¿Y si te vas? ¿Qué voy a hacer?” [And if you leave, what will I do?] He insists, “No voy a llorar, pero voy a beber” [I’m not going to cry, but I’m going to drink], raising a drink to her name and to his desire to love while trying to forget “to’ lo que pasó ayer” [everything that happened yesterday]. The repeated question makes the song feel stuck between pride and dependence. He says he will not cry, but drinking is clearly his way of dealing with the memory.
The verses turn flirtatious and boastful. He describes the pair as inseparable: “Tan pegao’ que somos uno” [So close that we are one], and says her kisses are his breakfast. “Panas” means friends or close companions, while “deal[in’]” and “hustling” refer to being busy making money through his work. He also claims that other men cannot copy him and that what began as a one-night situation now smells like love. The mix is what makes “Y Si Te Vas” fun: heartbreak, desire, swagger, drinking, and career talk all share the same space, while the chorus keeps returning to one simple problem: if she goes, he does not really know what he will do.
