Jennifer Lopez en español Posted by on Jul 8, 2010 in Spanish Culture, Spanish Grammar, Videos

Hola, mi gente, ¿cómo está todo? I hope you’re doing great!

What a better way to review grammar than with music, uh?

Jennifer Lopez has Puerto Rican origins and in 2007 she released the Como Ama Una Mujer (How a Woman Loves) album. The first song was ¿Qué Hiciste? (What have you done?) and today we’re going to take a look at its video and lyrics, because it brings a lot of verbs in the Past Tense in Spanish. Check out the lyrics and the translation of the song in the table below.

Ayer los dos soñábamos con un mundo perfecto
Ayer a nuestros labios les sobraban las palabras
Porque en los ojos nos espiábamos en el alma
Y la verdad no vacilaba a tu miradaAyer nos prometimos conquistar el mundo entero
Ayer tu me juraste que este amor seria eterno
Porque una vez equivocarse es suficiente
Para aprender lo que es amar sinceramenteQué hiciste
Hoy destruiste con tu orgullo la esperanza
Hoy empañaste con tu furia mi mirada
Borraste toda nuestra historia con tu rabia
Y confundiste tanto amor que te entregaba
Con un permiso para así romperme el alma

Qué hiciste
Nos obligaste a destruir las madrugadas
Y nuestras noches las borraron tus palabras
Mis ilusiones acabaron con tus farsas
Se te olvidó que era el amor lo que importaba
Y con tus manos derrumbaste nuestra casa

Mañana que amanezca un día nuevo en mi universo
Mañana no veré tu nombre escrito entre mis versos
No escucharé palabras de arrepentimiento
Ignoraré sin pena tu remordimiento

Mañana olvidaré que ayer yo fui tu fiel amante
Mañana ni siquiera habrá razones para odiarte
Yo borraré todos tus sueños de mis sueños
Que el viento arrastre para siempre tus recuerdos

Que hiciste
Nos obligaste a destruir las madrugadas
Y nuestras noches las borraron tus palabras
Mis ilusiones acabaron con tus farsas
Se te olvidó que era el amor lo que importaba
Y con tus manos derrumbaste nuestra casa

 Yesterday we both dreamed with a perfect world,
Yesterday the words exceeded our lips,
Because in our eyes we glanced each other’s soul
And the truth did not hesitate in your look.Yesterday we promised each other to conquer the entire world,
Yesterday you swore to me this love would last forever,
Because to be mistaken once is enough,
To learn what is to love sincerely.What have you done?
Today you’ve destroyed hope with your pride,
Today you dimmed with your fury my glance,
You’ve erased all our story with your rage,
And you’ve mistaken so much love that I gave to you,
With a permission to break my soul like this.

What have you done?
You forced us to destroy the dawns,
And your words erased our nights,
My illusions ended with your farces,
You forgot that love was what mattered,
And with your hands you’ve teared down our house.

Tomorrow shall a new day dawn in my universe,
Tomorrow I will not see your name written between my verses,
I will not listen to words of regret,
I will painless ignore your remorse.

Tomorrow I’ll forget that yesterday I was your faithful loving one,
Tomorrow there won’t be even reasons for me to hate you,
I will erase all your dreams of my dreams,
Shall the wind drag the memories of you forever.

What have you done?
You forced us to destroy the dawns,
And your words erased our nights,
My illusions ended with your farces,
You forgot that love was what mattered,
And with your hands you’ve torn down our house.
