El Día Que Me Quieras
CARLOS acuna Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
El suave murmullo de tu suspirar
Como ríe la vida
Si tus ojos negros me quieren mirar
Y si es mío el amparo
De tu risa leve
Que es como un cantar
Ella quieta mi herida
El día que me quieras
La rosa que engalana
Se vestirá de fiesta
Con su mejor color
Y al viento las campanas
Dirán que ya eres mía
Y locas las fontanas
Se contaran su amor
La noche que me quieras
Desde el azul del cielo
Las estrellas celosas
Nos miraran pasar
Y un rayo misterioso
Hará nido en tu pelo
Luciérnaga curiosa
Que vera que eres mi consuelo
El día que me quieras
No habrá mas que armonía
Será clara la aurora
Y alegre el manantial
Traerá quieta la brisa
Rumor de melodías
Y nos darán las fuentes
Su canto de cristal
El día que me quieras
Endulzara sus cuerdas
El pájaro cantor
Florecerá la vida
No existirá el dolor
La noche que me quieras
is a romantic song that portrays the idea of a perfect love. The first stanza talks about the dream-like state that the singer is in when their loved one sighs and murmurs sweet nothings. The black eyes of the loved one have the power to make everything in the singer's world feel better. The second stanza talks about the day when the loved one reciprocates the feelings of the singer. This day will be celebrated through the metaphor of a rose that adorns itself in its finest color, and the bells will ring to signify that the loved one belongs to the singer. The fountains will sing of their love too. The third stanza delves into the night that will accompany this perfect day, and the stars will shine upon them as they walk together. The idea of the electric currents that run through lovers' hair is portrayed through the line where a mysterious ray of light will nest in the hair of the singer's loved one. This is represented through the imagery of a curious firefly that sees the singer as their comfort. The final two stanzas reinforce the idea of harmonious love, where the melody of the morning, the soothing rustle of leaves, and the crystal-clear songs of fountains will resonate with the pair in love. The song ends by describing how the lover will become better and life will bloom once the affection is reciprocated.
