Desearía Meaning & Lyrics (Kapanga & Bandalos Chinos)
Sposito and De Luna Campos depict two souls wandering apart. Kapanga and Bandalos Chinos sing of wishing to be found by the other. They describe watching the sea from different locations when lost. The narrative moves through forgotten streets.
Solo Por Las Calles Del OlvidoAlone through the streets of oblivion,
Debo Andar Medio PerdidoI must wander, half-lost,
Pero No Me Se BuscarBut I don’t know how to find myself.
Desearia Tanto Que Me EncuentresI’d wish so much for you to find me.
Caminabas Sola Por La VidaYou were walking alone through life,
Vos Llegabas Yo Me IbaYou’d arrive, and I’d be gone.
No Te Dejo De MirarI can’t stop looking at you.
Desearia Tanto Que Me MiresI’d wish so much for you to look at me.
Quiero Escapar Quiero Dejarte Mi PasadoI want to escape, I want to leave my past with you,
La Ciudad No Me Permite Ver El SolThe city won’t let me see the sun.
Y Si No Me EncuentrasAnd if you don’t find me,
Quisieras Que Mires Al MarI’d want you to look at the sea.
Yo Estare Mirandolo En Otro LugarI’ll be watching it from another place.
Leo La Borra De Mi PasadoI’m reading the dregs of my past,
Dice Que Tenga CuidadoIt says that I should be careful,
Pero No Me Se CuidarBut I don’t know how to take care of myself.
Desearia Tanto Que Me CuidesI’d wish so much for you to take care of me.
Quiero Controlar Todos Mis ActosI want to control all my actions,
Se Que Tengo Poco TactoI know that I’ve got little tact,
No Me Puedo ControlarI just can’t control myself.
Desearia Que No Me ControlesI’d wish that you wouldn’t control me.
Quiero Escapar Quiero Dejarte Mi PasadoI want to escape, I want to leave my past with you,
La Ciudad No Me Permite Ver El SolThe city won’t let me see the sun.
Y Si No Me EncuentrasAnd if you don’t find me,
Quisieras Que Mires Al MarI’d want you to look at the sea.
Yo Estare Mirandolo En Otro LugarI’ll be watching it from another place.
Quiero Escapar Quiero Dejarte Mi PasadoI want to escape, I want to leave my past with you,
La Ciudad No Me Permite Ver El SolThe city won’t let me see the sun.
Y Si No Me EncuentrasAnd if you don’t find me,
Quisieras Que Mires Al MarI’d want you to look at the sea.
Yo Estare Mirandolo En Otro LugarI’ll be watching it from another place.
Mirando En Otro LugarWatching from another place.
Mirando En Otro LugarLooking on from somewhere else.
Mirando En Otro LugarWatching from a different place.
Kapanga and Bandalos Chinos convey unresolved yearning in their collaboration. The Desearía lyrics in English translate the search for connection despite separation. The sea becomes a shared reference point.
