Inquietud translates to 'unease' or 'restlessness'. It's a powerful word that describes a state of mental agitation, worry, or a lack of calm.
In the song, Ana Mena sings, "Me causa inquietud y melancolía / Que hayas pasado por mi vida" (It causes me unease and melancholy / That you have passed through my life). She uses this word to express the profound disturbance and emotional turmoil left by a past love, making it a compelling and relatable feeling for listeners.
Have you ever been haunted by a memory? Spanish pop star Ana Mena totally gets it in this song. She's surrounded by reminders of someone who's gone, listening to the old vinyl records they left behind—"Que en el fondo de un cajón olvidaste" (That you forgot in the back of a drawer). It's a song full of longing, where she admits she spends her nights awake, missing this person so much she feels the need "De irte a buscar, de llamarte y preguntar" (To go look for you, to call you and ask).
But it's not just about sadness. There's a powerful memory of a first kiss in a hallway, followed by a hopeful fantasy. She imagines them coming back and asks them to "hazme el amor despacio / Dulce y lentamente, lentamente, lentamente" (make love to me slowly / sweetly and slowly, slowly, slowly). It's a mix of melancholy for the past and a very direct wish for the future, all wrapped up in a smooth pop beat.
