Tu Canción Lyrics in English by ChocQuibTown
Trancon is a colloquial term for a "traffic jam" or "heavy traffic." While atasco is more common in some regions, trancon is frequently used in Colombia, where ChocQuibTown is from, making it a culturally interesting word.
In the song, the artist sings, "Si en la calle hay trancon o si no hay televisión," meaning "If there's a traffic jam in the street or if there's no television." It highlights that external inconveniences don't matter when he's happy with his love, adding a touch of everyday reality to the romantic sentiment.
Get ready to groove with ChocQuibTown's "Tu Canción"! This song is a super sweet declaration of love, where the singer pours his heart out, dedicating a special tune to the person he adores. He wants this song to be everywhere for her, from her phone's ringtone to the music she dances to, saying, "Esta es tu canción la que yo quiero que tu escuches / Cada vez que te timbre el celular / Esta es tu canción con la que quiero que me recuerdes / Cada vez que salgas a bailar" [This is your song, the one I want you to hear / Every time your cell phone rings / This is your song, the one I want you to remember me by / Every time you go out dancing].
It's all about how happy she makes him, so much so that nothing else matters. He sings, "Si se llevan la energía no me importa / Si en la calle hay trancon o si no hay televisión" [If they take away the power, I don't care / If there's a traffic jam in the street or if there's no television]. He even admits he's not rich, but this song is his most precious gift, a simple melody written just for her. He's not trying to get famous, but he definitely wants the world to know he's in love: "Con este tra tra no quiero hacerme famoso no / Pero si que digan que el prieto se enamoro" [With this beat, I don't want to become famous, no / But I do want them to say that the dark-skinned guy fell in love]. It's a truly charming and heartfelt serenade!
