TU FUISTE LA LUZ Lyrics (English Translation) – Zaramay

TU FUISTE LA LUZ (English Translation) Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
Here, Zaramay sets the mood by saying he’s about to drop another heartfelt track, like a love letter. He’s letting us know it’s personal and emotional, giving us a heads-up that what follows is something real and raw straight from his life.

[Verse 1]
Zaramay opens up by saying that looks don’t mean much if someone doesn’t truly care or show interest. It doesn’t matter how attractive someone is—if they’re lazy with love or keep playing games, he’s not into it. He believes that who you spend time with says a lot about who you are as a person. Deep down, he dreams of staying with one person for life and even having a baby if fate allows it. But he’s also learned that if someone has betrayed you once, they’ll probably do it again. Life tends to take away the things that hurt you but also the things you still owe or care about.

He talks about how some people say love is just a dream, not real—but he saw something genuine in her eyes when they were close. She once said he was her true love with tears in her eyes, but she ended up betraying him, comparing her to Judas who betrayed Jesus. Zaramay then shifts to his ambitions: wanting a couple of cars and a big house, starting businesses that’ll bring long-term success. He doesn’t have time to waste on drama or arguments. If someone can’t handle the pressure of being with him, they can step aside.

He says social media messes up relationships, but real love shouldn’t give in to temptation. He’s unsure if people today are just cold-hearted or if hurting others has become entertainment. He never intended to make her feel insecure, and he’s seen a lot in his environment—there’s no shortage of people and options. He’s already lived through enough negativity and now just wants a loving, kind woman who truly gets him.

He knows fame attracts fake people who only want him because he sings, not for who he is. That’s made it hard to trust again. Despite everything, he wishes he could live a normal life and find real love. He says he’s a loyal man, and there aren’t many like him left. If she feels lonely now, it’s because his arms are no longer there for her. Even the little things like sharing a drink at the table are gone now.

He’s so tired of disappointments that he says he’d rather be shot than go through another heartbreak. That’s why he chose to step back. She had to save herself in the end, even though he was the one who loved her truly. He’s not trying to cover up the truth—he knows what happened. She might be with someone else now just to cover the pain he left behind, but physical intimacy with others doesn’t replace the emotional bond they had. Anyone can sleep with someone, but not everyone connects on a deeper level. He questions if what she’s doing with the new guy feels even remotely the same.

There’s confusion in her actions—one minute she pushes him away, the next she begs him not to leave. It’s a messy situation, but he reminds her and everyone that he’s still the boss, still the one who stands tall despite it all.

[Chorus]
Zaramay reflects on how this woman once brought light into his dark times, offering comfort when he was surrounded by negativity and chaos. But he also reminds us of the dangerous world he lives in—where threats are constant, and things can get violent fast, even comparing it to Baghdad. It’s a contrast between the peace he felt with her and the violence around him, showing how important her presence once was.

[Verse 2]
He starts by saying sometimes it’s better to end something completely than to keep dragging around anger and pain. Especially when he gave everything to the relationship and still got nothing in return—it just didn’t feel fair. If she wanted freedom, he gave it to her, but maybe she wasn’t ready for what that meant. He says he had too much to offer, too much “shine,” for her to truly handle, which is why he didn’t keep chasing her.

She got the best version of him and didn’t appreciate it. Now, she’s come back through the same door she left, probably with regrets. He knows she hasn’t forgotten him, and if her heart isn’t open to anyone else, it’s because he left a mark. If she found someone like him, it’s only because he once gave her the “key”—but she lost it. And now that she realizes that, the regret stings.

Zaramay says he does care about her past, because it still affects his present. He’s not someone who just shrugs and says “it is what it is”—lost time hurts, and no one gives it back. He spent too much of that time depressed, until he finally pulled himself together, flew to the U.S., and started making money. He doesn’t feel sorry anymore because everything happens for a reason, and that journey taught him valuable life lessons.

He’s learned to be strong and to even befriend pain and death, because from every dark moment, something better can grow. He also shares a warning—don’t talk about your wealth or fake beauty in front of someone who doesn’t value real things, because not everyone is genuine. He says people often want more and more, but sometimes the sweetest-looking things (like chocolates) can be dangerous too.

Everything he does comes from the heart, and he believes that good energy always circles back. He criticizes those who run away from problems or destroy what took time to build. Some people are just lost and damage the good things in their lives. She might have thought she could find someone better, but once she met the real him, she fell for who he was. He reminds her of that moment—waiting in the rain with flowers—proving that he cared in ways others wouldn’t.

He was raised with values, and even people who seem tough and distant still want love. Eventually, people realize it’s not all about money, flashy stuff, or flirty moments—it’s about building something real, forming a family, and valuing someone for who they are. He ends with a blunt line, saying that if someone can be bought for a dollar, then what’s left to respect?

[Chorus]
Again, he brings up how she used to be his source of light during dark times. She helped him get through rough nights filled with negativity. But now that’s all gone, and he’s back in a world where violence and threats surround him. He makes it clear—she was something special in a world that rarely is, but that world doesn’t pause just because someone leaves.
