El Dia Que Me Quieras
Daniel Barenboim/Hector Console/Rodolfo Mederos 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
In Daniel Barenboim, Hector Console, and Rodolfo Mederos’s song, El Dia Que Me Quieras, the lyrics talk about the power of love that erases all the pain and the peace that comes with it. The beginning lines express a sweet desire to be embraced in the murmur of one's lover's breathing and the joy that comes with simply being looked upon by those black eyes. The singer suggests that the gentle sound of their laughter is healing, like a song, that can still the singer's wounds. The joy of the lover's amusement is enough to make the hurt go away.
The chorus of the song speaks about the immense happiness that will come on the day that the singer is loved by the person they speak to in the song. Using the symbol of a rose dressed in its finest attire, it suggests the radiance and beauty that will adorn their life together. The bells will ring, announcing that now the world knows that their heart belongs. The fontanas will go mad with joy and happiness because of the love that they share.
The verse in the song discusses the night they will spend together when they are lovers. The stars will look upon them, jealous of the love they have, and they will get a curious ray of light in their hair. The night that is supposed to be dark and lonely will put on its finest dress and, in chorus, sing of their love. The singer suggests that their song will be so melodious that it will be carried by the breeze and the sound of the fountains' crystal-clear water.
