Lento
Miguel Bosé Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lento... busco tu pensamiento
Siento... que eres tu mi alimento
Canto... de una sirena violento a mitad
Dentro... tiro a matar... aguanto
Lento... impertinente deseo, voila!
Magical overture, c'est toi
Danse le mystere madame, pour moi
Loin de cette histoire commence ma vie
Cuento… noche a noche tu encanto
Lento... donde colmar el momento ese te doy
Denso... pálido y sin aliento
Lento, luz de un bolero violento a mitad
Magical overture, c'est toi
Danse le mystere encore, une fois
Magical overture, magie
Loin de cette histoire commence ma vie
(Repite).
The song "Lento" by Miguel Bosé is a sensual and mysterious tune, filled with poetic language and vivid imagery. The lyrics describe a slow, all-consuming desire for someone, expressed through metaphors of music and magic.
The first two lines, "Lento... cómplice en el tormento / Lento... busco tu pensamiento," set the tone for the rest of the song. The singer is haunted by the object of their desire, and seeks out that person's thoughts as a source of nourishment. The repeated refrain of "Lento" emphasizes the slow, steady pull of this desire, which is described as both impertinent and violent.
As the song progresses, the singer speaks of a "siren's song" and a "magical overture," suggesting that this desire is all-encompassing and has the power to transport them to another world. The final lines, "Loin de cette histoire commence ma vie" (Far from this story, my life begins), suggest that this desire is a turning point for the singer, a moment of transformation.
Overall, "Lento" is a song about the power of desire and the way it can consume us, expressed through vivid imagery and poetic language.

No es, ka música que más me gusta, en verdad tengo que tener un día "especial" para escuchar a Miguel Bose! Pero si me gustan algunos temas... Sobre todo "bajo él signo de Cain" está hecho con mucho gusto.
