Zamba para Olvidarte
Los Del Suquia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Si ya eh empezado a olvidar.
No se si ya lo sabras
Llore cuando vos te fusite
Nose para qe volviste,
Que mal me hace recordar!
La tarde se ah puestro triste
Para qe vamos a hablar
De cosas qe ya no existen
Nose para qe volviste
Ya ves qe es mejor no hablar.
Qe pena me da saber qe al final de este amor ya no qeda nada,
Solo una pobre cancion
Da vueltas por mi guitarra
Y hace rato qe te extra帽a
Mi zamba para olvidar.
Mi zamba vivio conmigo
Parte de mi soledad.
No se si ya lo sabras
Mi vida se fue contigo,
Contigo mi amor contigo.
Qe mal me hace recordar.
Mis manos ya son de barro
Tanto apretar al dolor
Y ahora qe me falta el sol
Nose qe venis buscando
Llorando mi amor llorando
Tambien olvidame vos.
Qe pena me da saber qe al final de este amor ya no qeda nada,
Solo una pobre cancion
Da vueltas por mi guitarra
Y hace rato qe te extra帽a
Mi zamba para olvidar.
The lyrics of Los del Suquia's song "Zamba para Olvidarte" express the emotional turmoil of someone who has just started to forget a past love but is confronted by their return. The singer wonders why their former partner has come back, as it only causes them pain and brings back memories that they were trying to let go of. The sadness that descends upon them is palpable, as evidenced by the line "La tarde se ha puesto triste" (the afternoon has become melancholy).
Despite their desire to avoid confrontation, the singer cannot escape the fact that nothing remains of the love they once shared. The only thing left is a "pobre canci贸n" (poor song) that circles around on their guitar, a reference to the zamba style and the ability of music to evoke powerful emotions.
The repeated phrase "no se para qu茅 volviste" (I don't know why you came back) highlights the confusion and frustration of the singer, who cannot understand why their ex would want to revisit a relationship that has already ended. The zamba rhythm accentuates the melancholy tone of the song, communicating the pain and sadness of the singer.
