Al Voluntario (English Translation) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
If you have plans, plans to go with the wind
If you know I might never see you again
Just let me know and I’ll lie to myself
I tell my conscience: “Everything’s going to be okay”
And to be honest, I’m not that strong
If you need more promises to break
Promise to be with me forever
Promise that this goodbye won’t hurt anymore
[Pre-Chorus: Paty Cantú]
And even though I always wanted to get used to it
[Chorus: Paty Cantú]
I tried to forget you, but who am I kidding?
It’s been over a year and I won’t let you go
If you’re looking for someone to hurt
Do it to me, do it to me
If crying for you is the only scenario
In which tonight you’re still here
If this is how I can have you, I’ll be a volunteer
Do it to me, do it to me
[Post-Chorus: Paty Cantú]
If that’s the What’s needed for me to see you arrive again?
I’ll be your volunteer against my will.
[Verse 2: José Madero]
This wound breathes, but a scar takes more than a year.
And although it’s inevitable that you’ll hurt me.
If I say I don’t want to, it would be a lie.
“Everything’s going to be okay,” the famous “Everything’s going to be okay.”
It’s been two years and nothing’s okay.
If I feel guilty, I know you do too.
[Pre-Chorus: José Madero]
And although I always wanted to get used to it.
[Chorus: José Madero]
I’ve tried to forget you, but who am I kidding?
It’s been more than a year and I won’t let you go.
If you’re looking for someone to hurt,
Do it to me, do it to me.
If crying for you is the only scenario.
In which tonight you’re still here.
If this is how I manage to have you, I’ll be the volunteer.
Do it to me, do it to me.
[Post-Chorus: Paty Cantú, José Madero]
If that’s what it takes. It’s not long before I see you arrive again
I will be your volunteer against my will
Al Voluntario Lyrics Meaning
[Verse 1: Paty Cantú]
Paty begins the song by confronting the inevitable separation between herself and the person she loves. She offers her sincerity, acknowledging that although she tries to convince herself it will be okay, the hurt still lingers. The verse highlights the conflict between the desire to let go and the need for reassurance and promises that will never be fulfilled. Her internal dialogue reveals her vulnerability, as she is willing to hold on to false hope, especially if it means being close to this person again.
[Pre-Chorus: Paty Cantú]
In the pre-chorus, Paty reflects on her long-standing desire to adapt to the situation, but the emotional weight of the situation remains, underscoring the difficulty of moving forward despite her intentions.
[Chorus: Paty Cantú]
The chorus amplifies the emotional conflict of the song. Paty admits to trying to forget the person, but the realization hits that she is still emotionally tied to them, unable to let go even after a year. Her willingness to endure pain, even if it means taking the emotional hits, is conveyed powerfully. The lines “Házmelo a mí” (Do it to me) express her willingness to be the one to suffer, as it keeps the connection alive in her heart.
[Post-Chorus: Paty Cantú]
Paty further emphasizes her self-sacrifice, stating that if it takes this suffering to see the person she loves again, she would willingly become a “volunteer” against her own better judgment. This highlights the desperation and emotional conflict of loving someone who causes pain.
[Verse 2: José Madero]
José’s verse brings a sense of resigned acceptance. He acknowledges the wound of the past and the prolonged healing process. The scars from this relationship still weigh on him, and though it is painful to admit, he confesses that he is not immune to wanting to feel the hurt again if it means keeping the connection alive, mirroring Paty’s earlier sentiments.
[Pre-Chorus: José Madero]
Similar to Paty, José reflects on his internal battle, expressing the desire to adapt to the emotional turmoil, but recognizing that it’s impossible to completely shake off the pain and longing for what has been lost.
[Chorus: José Madero]
José reiterates the chorus, echoing Paty’s earlier plea. This time, he directly confronts the idea of allowing the other person to hurt him as an expression of love, reinforcing the theme of emotional endurance and the struggle to let go, no matter how much time has passed.
[Post-Chorus: Paty Cantú, José Madero]
In the post-chorus, the duet brings the song full circle. Their combined voices intensify the feeling of desperation, emphasizing the painful reality that the desire to see the other person again outweighs their own well-being, encapsulating the essence of being a “volunteer” in love and heartache.
