La Camisa Negra Meaning & Lyrics (Elliott)
Juanes writes about wearing a black shirt because his soul is equally dark. He describes drinking the venom of a love that left him near death and filled with pain. The singer mentions putting on the black shirt to hide his bleeding heart and break the lover’s heart of ice.
Tengo La Camisa Negra Hoy Mi Amor Esta De LutoI’ve got my black shirt on today because my love’s in mourning.
Hoy Tengo En El Alma Una Pena Y Es Por Culpa De Tu EmbrujoMy soul carries a heavy pain today, and it’s all because of your spell.
Je Suis Tombe Dans Le Piege Dechire J’revois Nos ScenesI fell into the trap, torn apart, replaying our memories.
J’ai Mis La Camisa Negra Pour Cacher Mon Coeur Qui SaigneI put on the black shirt to hide my bleeding heart.
Mal Parece Que Solo Me Quede Oui C’est Sournois Mon Ame Qui Se VideIt seems I’m all alone now; it’s cruel how my soul is just emptying out.
Mauvais Karma Voila Quelle Est Ma Vie La Depuis Qu’tu M’as RencontreIt’s just bad karma; that’s been my life since the moment you met me.
Por Beber Del Veneno Malevo De Tu AmorFrom drinking the malevolent venom of your love,
Yo Quede Moribundo Y Lleno De DolorI was left near death and filled with pain.
Sur Tes Levres J’ai Goute Au Venin Qui Te DonneOn your lips, I tasted the poison that gives you
Le Pouvoir De Me Briser Yo Solothe power to break me down all by myself.
Tengo Tengo La Camisa Negra Porque Negra Tengo El AlmaI’ve got, I’ve got the black shirt because my soul is just as black.
Yo Por Ti Perdi La Calma Y Casi Pierdo Hasta Mi CamaI lost my peace because of you, and I almost lost my own bed.
Cama Cama Come On Baby Te Digo Con DisimuloBed, bed, come on baby, I’m telling you on the sly,
Que Tengo La Camisa Negra Y Debajo Tengo El Difuntothat I’ve got my black shirt on, and underneath lies a dead man.
J’ai Mis La Camisa Negra T’as Eu Tort De Me Laisser LaI put on the black shirt; you were wrong to leave me there.
Seul Hier J’repensais A Toi Et A Tes MensongesYesterday I was alone, thinking of you and your lies.
Tes Dramas Tes Infidelites Tout S’effaceYour drama and your cheating, it’s all fading away,
Aujourd’hui J’fais Tomber Les Masquesbecause today, I’m tearing off the masks,
J’ai Mis La Camisa Negra Pour Casser Ton Coeur De Glaceand I’ve put on the black shirt to break your heart of ice.
