Tonight, before I go out, I want to bless you all with one of my very favorite songs ever. It's a song that I first heard fifteen years ago in Sonora. I was new to Mexico, and it was all so odd and fresh.. This music - Norteño - is Mexican country. Back then, Norteño - like country tends to - all sounded the same to me. It's takes some work to understand it, as a genre.
Except this song. This leapt out at me, and caught me right away.
I loved it immediately, and love it still.
It's meaning - like so many things in Spanish, which is nothing but a dialect of English, sabes - was understood from the moment I heard it.
Quiero saciarme en ti nada mas..
It doesn't get any more explicit and passionate than that. You don't need no damn dictionary to get that, ¿me equivoco?
No. I'm not. Enjoy:
The Lyrics:
tu me robaste el alma,
tu me robaste el amor,
tu esa vez que te fuiste tambien
me dejaste sin mi corazon...
hoy que de nuevo te encuentro
quiero sentir otra vez tus manos sobre mi cuerpo,
tu alineto y tus labios quemando mi piel...
porque no pude enamorarme mas tu te adueñaste de mi voluntad...
en todo ese tiempo he guardado desceos
y quiero saciarme en ti nadamas...
ven a mis brazos vuelveme a querer escucha
lo que tengo para ti,
mi cuerpo te espera te quiero
deveras si tu no regresas me voy a morir...
Hoy que de nuevo te encuentro quiero
sentir otravez tus manos sobre mi cuerpo,
tu aliento y tus labios quemando mi piel...
porque no pude enamorarme mas
tu te adueñaste de mi voluntadad
en todo ese tiempo he guardado desceos
y quiero saciarme en ti nada mas...
ven a misbrazos vuelveme aquerer escucha lo que tengo para ti,
mi cuerpo te espera te quiero deveras
si tu no regresas me voy a morir..
porque no pude enamorarme
mas tu te adueñaste de mi voluntadad
en todo ese tiempo he guardado desceos
y quiero saciarme en ti nada mas...
Rough Translation:
You stole my soul,
You stole my love,
Then, with that you left me too.
You left me without my heart..
Today I'm still feeling you anew,
I need to feel your hands over my body once more,
Your breathe, your lips still burning my skin..
For I couldn't love you more, you own my will..
All this time I've kept wanting you,
I want to consummate myself in you, nothing more..
Come into my arms, encompass me, I need you to hear
All I have for you.
My body awaits you, I truly want you.
If you don't come back I'm going to die.
