Answer 1

I would translate the last two lines such,

tampoco te pido que vuelvas rogando perdón

nor do I expect you to come back begging forgiveness

si lloras con los ojos secos, y hablando de ella.

If you are going to cry crocodile tears and still talk about her

Answer 2

Hi Syl-Sung and welcome to the forum,

no pido que todos los dias de sol, no pido que todos los vienes sean de fiesta, tampoco te pido que vuelvas ragando perdón, si lloras con los ojos secos, y hablando de ella.

I believe you haven't gotten the original lyrics correct... they are:

No pido que todos los dias sean de sol

No pido que todos los viernes sean de fiesta

Tampoco te pido que vuelvas rogando perdón

Si lloras con los ojos secos, y hablando de ella.

These corrections might make it easier for you to translate .

Saludos, Chica

Answer 3

I am not asking that everyday be sunny, I am not asking that every Friday is a party, I am not asking that you comeback asking forgiveness Yes, cry with dry eyes, and talking to her.
