Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Que sólo tengo que esperar
Los que nos guarda el porvenir
Lo que nos queda para Abril
No tengo nada que ofrecer
Sólo mis manos para extender
Palabras que ha guardado dios
Hoy sólo tengo que esperar
Hoy sólo tengo que esperar aquí
El día que vas a llegar
El día en que vas a quedarte aquí
Cuando llegue Abril
Si te tropiezas al andar
En busca de la felicidad
No temas porque yo estaré
Para ayudarte a estar de pie
Hoy sólo tengo que esperar
Hoy sólo tengo que esperar aquí
Cuando llegue Abril
A ti
Si ya me puedes escuchar
Sabrás de lo que eres capaz
Ser tan brillante como el sol
Mirar la vida sin temor
Si sólo luchas por ganar
Mañana podrás abrir el mar
Mirarse en busca de un amor
Tal como ayer lo hice yo
Hoy sólo tengo que esperar
Tan solo tengo que esperar por ti
El día en que vas a llegar
Yo solo sé que voy a estar aquí
Cuando llegue Abril
A mí
The song "Abril" by Los Bunkers explores the theme of anticipation and hope for the future.

The future is uncertain, but there is a sense of optimism and excitement about what is to come.

The lines "sólo mis manos para extender / palabras que ha guardado dios / para que seas mejor que yo" translate to "only my hands to offer / words that God has kept / so that you can be better than me." This could suggest that the person they are waiting for is younger or less experienced, and the singer hopes to provide guidance and advice to help them succeed.
The chorus repeats the phrase "Hoy sólo tengo que esperar" or "Today, I only have to wait," emphasizing the theme of anticipation and hope.

This suggests that the person they are waiting for may face challenges or difficulties, but the singer will be there to support them through it all.
Overall, the song is a touching expression of hope in the face of an uncertain future, emphasizing the importance of supporting those we care about and offering guidance and advice to help them succeed.
