La Fuerte Lyrics (English Translation) – Shakira

La Fuerte (English Translation) Lyrics Meaning

[Verse 1]
Shakira expresses deep regret for not fully appreciating the relationship while she had the chance. She thought there would always be more time, so she held back love and affection, only to be left with unfulfilled desires. Looking at old photos brings her pain because they remind her of what she lost. Even though she misses the person, her pride stops her from reaching out. She wants to make it seem like she has moved on, but in reality, she still longs for them. The verse captures feelings of nostalgia, regret, and the struggle between pride and love.

[Chorus]
She describes how every night without the person feels empty, but she tries to act strong, even though it’s just a front. Deleting their number was pointless because they are still in her heart and mind. No matter how much she tries to convince herself that she has moved on, deep inside, she knows she hasn’t. Her emotions are too strong to ignore.

[Pre-Chorus]
Despite trying to seem strong, she is still willing to reconnect. She leaves the door open for the person to reach out. If they ask, she will come running without hesitation, showing that deep down, she still hopes for another chance with them.

[Chorus]
Once again, she emphasizes how hard it is to be without this person. She keeps acting like she’s fine, but the pain of separation is real. Even deleting their number hasn’t helped because she still remembers everything about them. No matter how much she pretends, she can’t erase them from her heart.

[Outro]
The outro likely reinforces the emotional struggle and lingering feelings, leaving the song on a note of unresolved longing. It suggests that even though she tries to be strong, her love and regret remain.
