"Cien Años" (Шаблон:Lang-en) is a song written by Mexican songwriters Rubén Fuentes and Alberto Cervantes. It was originally recorded in 1953 by Pedro Infante, who also performed the song in the 1954 film Cuidado con el amor in a famous scene where his character sings it for Elsa Aguirre's character.[1] The song, which went on to become the most successful song of 1954 in Mexico,[2] has been covered by at least 189 performers according to the Mexican Society of Authors and Composers.[3]

In the lyrics of the song, a man describes an encounter with an old love, who passes by him and ignores him as the man laments that she has forgotten him, but in spite of her indifference, he remarks that "if I live a hundred years, a hundred years I'll think of you".

The song was covered by Selena's singing group in 1988, Selena y Los Dinos, on their album Preciosa (Precious). Selena re-recorded the song with a more beat-to-beat pop style in 1990, for their first greatest hits album, 16 Super Exitos Originales. After Selena's death, the song appeared as a Mariachi song for the album Siempre Selena in 1996. Again the song appeared on Selena's greatest hits album, All My Hits/Todos Mis Exitos Vol. 2 in 2000.
