Incompatibles Lyrics Translation – Christian Nodal
The musician sings about two people who know their relationship has run its course. ‘Maybe there’s a universe where we end up together, but in this one, it all failed because it just wasn’t meant to be,’ Nodal notes, blending regret with acceptance. The lyrics talk about pride, drinks, and moving on, painting a clear picture of emotional closure.
Aquí los dos nos vamos a pegar de topesHere, we’re both going to end up regretting this,
Se me hace que la realidad nos va a llegar de golpeI feel like reality is going to hit us all at once.
Sé que habrá un antes y un despuésI know there will be a before and an after,
Tal vez muy pronto en mis ojos lo notesand maybe very soon you’ll notice it in my eyes.
Yo sé que me vas a extrañarI know you’re going to miss me,
Y a ti te va a pasar igualand you’ll go through the exact same thing,
Pero el orgullo no va a dar un paso atrásbut our pride won’t take a single step back,
Ni pa’ qué moverle a eso de regresarso there’s no point in even bringing up getting back together.
Si ya comprobamos que no somos compatiblesIf we’ve already proven that we aren’t compatible,
Una peda, una llorada y luego a lo que siguewe’ll have some drinks, a good cry, and then move on to what’s next.
Tal vez hay un universo en el que estamos juntosMaybe there’s a universe where we end up together,
Pero en este valió madre porque no se pudobut in this one, it all failed because it just wasn’t meant to be.
No se pudoIt just wasn’t meant to be.
A fuerzas, nadaNothing works by force,
Cuando la puerta está cerradabecause when the door is firmly closed,
El amor no la abre ni a empujones ni a patadaslove won’t open it, not even with pushes or kicks.
Si ya comprobamos que no somos compatiblesIf we’ve already proven that we aren’t compatible,
Una peda, una llorada y luego a lo que siguewe’ll have some drinks, a good cry, and then move on to what’s next.
Tal vez hay un universo en el que estamos juntosMaybe there’s a universe where we end up together,
Pero en este valió madre porque no se pudobut in this one, it all failed because it just wasn’t meant to be.
(Porque) No se pudo(Because) it just wasn’t meant to be.
No se pudoIt just wasn’t meant to be.
Si ya comprobamos que no somos compatiblesIf we’ve already proven that we aren’t compatible,
Una peda, una llorada y luego a lo que siguewe’ll have some drinks, a good cry, and then move on to what’s next.
Tal vez hay un universo en el que estamos juntosMaybe there’s a universe where we end up together,
Pero en este valió madre porque no se pudobut in this one, it all failed because it just wasn’t meant to be.
