Ojos Tristes (English Translation) Lyrics
[Verse 1: Selena Gomez]
No, it’s not hard to see
That you probably feel worse than me
It’s not your fault I have to leave
Please don’t you look that way, baby
[Pre-Chorus: Selena Gomez]
Those sad eyes, sad eyes
You know I don’t wanna say goodbye
Don’t cry, don’t cry
Just hold me for one last time
[Chorus: María Zardoya & Selena Gomez]
The boy with the sad eyes
Lives alone and needs love
Like the air, he needs to see me
Like the sun, I need him
The boy with the sad eyes (That boy is sad)
Has finally found a reason (I wanna hold him)
To make his gaze laugh (And seize the night)
With my kisses and my great love
[Verse 2: María Zardoya]
Two years have passed
I still think of you in all my senses
Before, it was your eyes raining in autumn
And Now they’re mine.
[Pre-Chorus: María Zardoya]
How he changed, love.
We were both happy.
And now I cry, for God’s sake.
Sadness dawned within me.
[Chorus: María Zardoya & Selena Gomez, Selena Gomez]
The boy with the sad eyes
Lives alone and needs love.
Like the air, he needs to see me.
Like the sun, I need him.
The boy with the sad eyes (That boy is sad)
Has finally found a reason (I wanna hold him)
To make his eyes laugh (And seize the night)
With my kisses and my great love.
[Outro: María Zardoya & Selena Gomez, María Zardoya]
La-da-da-da, da-da, da-da, da-da
La-da-da-da, da-da, da-da, da-da
La-da-da-da, da-da, da-da, Dadaist
La-da-da-da, da-da, da-da, da-da
Ojos Tristes Lyrics Meaning
[Verse 1: Selena Gomez]
In this verse, Selena reflects on the difficulty of leaving someone who is emotionally affected by the separation. The line “it’s not hard to see that you probably feel worse than me” suggests an understanding of the mutual pain involved. Selena acknowledges that her departure is not the fault of the other person, but she feels guilty for having to leave, yet she urges them not to look at her with sadness. The verse sets a melancholic tone for the song, highlighting the internal conflict of leaving someone behind despite the bond they share.
[Pre-Chorus: Selena Gomez]
Here, Selena recognizes the pain in the other person’s eyes, calling them “sad eyes.” Despite her desire to leave, she doesn’t want to say goodbye. The pre-chorus conveys a sense of urgency and tenderness, asking to be held for “one last time.” It showcases the deep emotional struggle of wanting to hold on to the relationship while being forced to let go. The repeated plea not to cry adds emotional weight to the moment, intensifying the vulnerability of the situation.
[Chorus: María Zardoya & Selena Gomez]
The chorus introduces a shift as María Zardoya and Selena sing about a “sad boy” with “sad eyes” who lives alone and is in need of love. This reflects the profound loneliness that both characters experience. The line “like the air, he needs to see me, like the sun, I need him” expresses mutual dependence and longing. The chorus also hints at a hopeful resolution as the “sad boy” finds a reason to smile through the love and kisses that will bring joy to his life again, painting a picture of love that can heal emotional wounds.
[Verse 2: María Zardoya]
In the second verse, María reflects on the passage of time, noting that even though two years have passed, she still thinks about the person. The line “before it was your eyes raining in autumn, and now they are mine” suggests a shift in perspective, where María now feels the sadness that the other person once experienced. This verse emphasizes the impact of the relationship and the lingering emotional connection, even after time has passed. The imagery of autumn evokes feelings of change and loss, symbolizing the seasons of life.
[Pre-Chorus: María Zardoya]
María continues to explore the emotional changes in the relationship. She reflects on how their once happy love has turned to sadness, expressing how much things have changed since they were happy together. The sorrow she feels is profound, and the phrase “tristeza en mí amaneció” (sadness dawned on me) highlights how the grief has taken over her mornings, painting a picture of someone struggling to move forward.
[Chorus: María Zardoya & Selena Gomez, Selena Gomez]
The chorus repeats, reinforcing the mutual longing between the two characters. The sentiment of needing each other, like the air and the sun, is reiterated, symbolizing the importance of their connection. Both singers convey the message that love, through time and hardship, can still bring comfort and the possibility of joy, even in the midst of heartache. The line “to make his gaze smile” symbolizes the desire to heal emotional wounds through affection and love, suggesting that even sad moments can be brightened with the right kind of love.
[Outro: María Zardoya & Selena Gomez, María Zardoya]
The outro, with its repetition of “La-da-da-da,” adds a reflective and almost wistful tone to the song. The melodic repetition serves as a calming conclusion, echoing the cyclical nature of love and heartbreak. It leaves the listener with a sense of lingering emotion, a soft reminder of the sadness and beauty that the song encapsulates. The outro ties together the themes of yearning and unspoken emotion, marking the end of the emotional journey within the song.
