Dentro Del Pecho
Tecupae Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Y que felicidad fue volver a verte
Parecías un angel entre la gente
Más hermosa que nunca tú caminabas
Que en tus ojitos dos estrellas brillaban

Tuve que confesarte que no he podido
Recuperar mi vida te necesito
Vives en cada uno de mis latidos
A pesar de los años yo no te olvido

En el corazón guardo en mi
Este sentimiento por ti
Nunca imaginé que el destino
Iba a acercarte hasta a mi

Dentro del pecho
Llevo escrito tu nombre
Y yo daría lo que no tengo para que vuelvas
Dentro del pecho
Se ilumina
Y al cabo tus besos apagarían todas mis penas
Ayayayaaaayayaaa
Siempre te voy a amar...
Ayayayayaaayaaaa

Siempre cuando hay amor
Quedan esperanzas
Tu imagen fue el consuelo para mi alma
Sé que renacería si me abrazaras
Alegrarías mi vida si te quedaras

Dentro del pecho
Llevo escrito tu nombre
Y yo daría lo que no tengo para que vuelvas
Dentro del pecho
Yo decido
Esperando solo vivo con la ilusión que aún me quieras
Ayayayayaaayayaaaa
Siempre te voy a amar
Ayayaaaayayaaa

Si empezaramos de nuevo
Por tu amor me desespero
Y vivir sin tu cariño me está matando
Ayayayaaayayaaa

Dentro del pecho
Llevo escrito tu nombre
Y yo daría lo que no tengo para que vuelvas
Dentro del pecho
Yo decido
Esperando solo vivo con la ilusión que aún me quieras
Ayayayayaaayayaaaa




Mi estrellita de mar
Ayayayaaayayaaaa

Overall Meaning

In Tecupae's song "Dentro Del Pecho," the singer expresses their overwhelming joy upon reuniting with their loved one. The singer describes their loved one as a literal angel amongst the people, shining brighter than ever before. The singer also admits that, despite the years that have passed, they have never forgotten their love or gotten over them. The chorus repeats the sentiment that the singer carries their loved one's name within their chest and would give anything for their return, and that the hope of being loved in return is what keeps them alive. The bridge yearns for the opportunity to start over again with their love, desperate for their warmth and love. The song ultimately expresses the feeling of an epic love that transcends time, distance, and obstacles, and the passion one feels when reunited with their only true love.


Interestingly, "Dentro Del Pecho" was written by a woman named Carmelo Navarrete, who was the only female composer in a composition company of 47 men in Venezuela in the 90s. The song has been covered and performed by many Latin artists, including Gloria Trevi and Rocio Durcal. The song was a massive success in the 90s and has since been considered a classic love song. Tecupae, the band that performs the original version of the song, was founded in 1993 by three Venezuelan friends with a passion for music. The band's name comes from the indigenous word "tucupae," which means "future." The band has been active for over 28 years and continues to make music to this day. The song's lyrics have been interpreted as a desire for reconciliation with a lost love, but also as a metaphor for Venezuela's political and socio-economic situation at the time. The song's music video features the band performing in a park, amidst beautiful greenery and flowers.


Overall, "Dentro Del Pecho" is a classic Latin American love song that expresses the feeling of an all-consuming love that lasts a lifetime. The song speaks to the hope that love can endure all obstacles and the beauty of reuniting with a true love after years of separation.
