The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Despechado" by Celia Cruz.

Lyrics

Amor mío, di si es verdad
que andas diciendo por ahí
que estoy despechada por ti.
Amor mío, es realidad,
yo ando con otros pero no siento
lo que contigo sentí.
Tú no sabes lo que es sentirse desamparada
cuando uno ama, como te he amado,
y que de repente me confieses que ya tu amor para mi terminó.
Despechada, eso me llamas después de amarme y abandonarme,
y porque busco refugio en la calle
con amores que muchos de ellos me habland de ti.
Egoista, di la verdad,
si no me quieres al menos deja que otro me de la felicidad.
Despechado yo, egoista tú.
Egoista, di la verdad,
si no me quieres al menos deja que otro me de la felicidad.

Lyrics translation

My love, say if it's true
what are you saying around here?
that I'm despised for you.
My love, it's reality,
I hang out with others but I don't feel
what I felt with you.
You don't know what it's like to feel helpless
when one loves, as I have loved you,
and suddenly you confess that your love for me is over.
Despised, that's what you call me after loving me and abandoning me,
and because I seek refuge in the street
with loves that many of them tell me about you.
Selfish, tell the truth,
if you don't love me at least let someone else give me happiness.
Despised me, selfish you.
Selfish, tell the truth,
if you don't love me at least let someone else give me happiness.
