Biography.-
Kudai was formed in the year 2000, when a band of children was put together to sing tribute songs of Italian hits of the '80s. This band was called "Ciao", and produced only one disc with relative success. Afterwards, they begun to perform group-submitted songs and musical interpretation of diverse instruments and changed their name to "Kudai". This word comes from the mapudungun kudau (meaning young worker). Kudai released their first album "VUELO" (Spanish for flight) in 2004, and their first single "Sin Despertar" quickly escalated to the first places of Chilean music rankings. Soon they released their second single "Ya Nada Queda", which achieved great success as did their third single "Escapar". "VUELO" became platinum in August 2005.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
y aunque hoy sientas que no hay más
yo siempre voy a estar
cuando las lágrimas apaguen tu fe
y aunque te aferres al silencio
Yo aquí estaré
cuando el invierno quiera regresar (yo estaré)
cuando te pierdas en la oscuridad (yo estaré)
la luz en tu camino
un ángel del destino, ouh
Te esperaré (no importa a donde vayas)
y aquí estaré (aún quedan mil batallas)
yo no me iré (donde tu vayas yo estaré)
escúchame
Por siempre yo aquí estaré
cuando el invierno quiera regresar (Yo estaré)
cuando te pierdas en la oscuridad (yo estaré)
la luz en tu camino, un ángel del destino
un sol que siempre brillará
Giremos con el viento
Y al fin podrás respirar
Grítaremos el silencio
