The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Yo No Sé Matar" by José Alfredo Jiménez.

Lyrics

Yo no se matar
pero voy a aprender.
Tengo que acabar
con ese querer
que te hace llorar.
Yo no puedo ver
que te haga sufrir
y que no te quiera.
Yo no puedo ver
que venga por ti a la hora que quiera.
Me agobia la envidia
me muero de celos
se dobla mi orgullo
se dobla y se quiebra
porque yo quisiera
aunque sea un minuto
cambiarme por el.
Me agobia la envidia
me muero de celos
se dobla mi orgullo
se dobla y se quiebra
porque yo quisiera
aunque sea un minuto
cambiarme por el.
Yo no se matar
pero voy a aprender.

Lyrics translation

I won't kill you
but I'm going to learn.
I have to finish
with that desire
that makes you cry.
I can't see
May it make you suffer
and don't love you.
I can't see
let him come for you at any time he wants.
Envy overwhelms me
I'm dying of jealousy.
it doubles my pride
it bends and breaks
because I would
even if it's a minute
change for him.
Envy overwhelms me
I'm dying of jealousy.
it doubles my pride
it bends and breaks
because I would
even if it's a minute
change for him.
I won't kill you
but I'm going to learn.
