After rising to popularity throughout the Latin American world, they issued a pair of U.S. compilations -- 20 Cumbias Andinas and El Tranvia del Amor -- before releasing Manantial de Amor, a collection of all-new material, in 1998. Prometiendo Amor followed a year later; Vuelve Mariposa appeared in spring 2001.

Cómo duele
Los Llayras Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Quiero llevarte amor mío
sobre un sueño volando
Sentir el sol en las manos
Sentir tu cuerpo vibrando
X2

Quiero que vengas conmigo
Amarnos una vez más

Eres mi día mi noche fuego que abraza mi piel
Eres tu el que enloquece cada rincón de mi ser
X2

Quiero vivir junto a ti un amor de verdad
ay ay ay amándome
donde tu estes amandote
ay ay ay amandote
Quiero vivir amandote

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Los Llayras's song "Como Duele" (translates to "How It Hurts") are about a person who yearns to be with the one they love, expressing their desire to fly with them in a dreamlike state and feel the warmth of the sun while also feeling their body vibrate. They want the person to come with them and love each other once again, describing them as their day and night, the fire that embraces their skin, and the one that drives them crazy in every corner of their being. The chorus is a repeat of the desire to live together and love each other genuinely, no matter where they are.

The lyrics of this song are a tribute to the feelings of longing and companionship that can overwhelm a person when they are in love. The use of vivid imagery in the lyrics helps to fully convey the depth of emotion involved. The line "eres tu el que enloquece cada rincón de mi ser" (translates to "you're the one who drives every corner of my being crazy") is particularly evocative, as it speaks to the intense feeling of attraction and desire that people can experience when they're in love.
