BÉSAME (Remix) Lyrics in English by Bhavi, Seven Kayne, Milo j, KHEA, Neo Pistea, Tiago PZK
Desaforado translates to "unbridled" or "unrestrained." It's a strong adjective that describes someone acting without control or limits, often due to intense emotion or desperation.
In the song, the artist uses it to convey a sense of being completely out of control, saying, "To' desaforado, sumergí la cara y casi que me ahogo" (All unrestrained, I submerged my face and almost drowned). This word paints a vivid picture of someone overwhelmed and reckless, making it a memorable and impactful choice.
Bhavi built BESAME around one line he keeps circling back to: ‘No sé cuánto tiempo me queda en el plano’ [I don't know how much time I have left on this plane]. The Remix hands that urgency to five more Argentine rappers, and each one answers it in his own key. One chases a comedown until he's dipping his face in water just to come back to himself: ‘sumergí la cara y casi que me ahogo’ [I dipped my face and almost drowned]. Another watches a woman warm herself on him for one night and go cold the next: ‘Usa mis brazos de abrigo’ [She uses my arms for warmth], then ‘Pero me dio la espalda’ [But she turned her back on me] a few lines later. A third treats one kiss like the last thing standing between him and falling apart: ‘Bésame, bésame como si fuera la última vez’ [Kiss me, kiss me as if it were the last time].
What holds six different verses together is the hook, repeated after every one: ‘Bésa-bésame, mi amor’ [Kiss-kiss me, my love], ‘No sé cuánto tiempo me doy’ [I don't know how much time I give myself], ‘Aprovechemos el hoy porque es hoy’ [Let's make the most of today because it's today]. It reads less like a love song than a countdown six people are running at once, each with a different reason to be in a hurry.
