Translation
I Am Not Right for You
You saw in me all the qualities
You proposed that I had good manners
Your heart felt me so perfect
But your eyes never saw my defects.
You loved what you invented
Fantasies that you painted in the air
Never could you see what there is inside
And you gave yourself an account of me that I don't match
You fell in love with some simple words
With empty phrases which didn't come from the soul
You believed me completely in love
I present to you the one you really loved
I am not right for you
Don't tell me yes because it isn't true.
To play with you was only my pastime.
Tell me if a truthful man would do that to you.
You are not understanding what I say again.
I am not right for you.
In you I looked for pleasure only for a moment
And for me that moment is already over.
I am not right for you
If you do not understand it,
Time will make you know it.

Russia is waging a disgraceful war on Ukraine. Stand With Ukraine!
About translator
First, re. the translation of the title of the song. "I do not agree with you" is the literal translation of the Spanish title. However I don't think that literal translation captures the idea of the song. It isn't that he is disagreeing with her about anything; rather it is that he is trying to tell her that he is not the right man for her. "I am not fit for you" or" suitable for you" comes closer to the intent, but the wording I chose seems to me more idiomatic. Comments, suggestions?
I hope I captured the essence of the song. Corrections will be welcome.
