Dos Cervecitas Lyrics in English by Corazon Serrano
Añorado is the past participle of the verb "añorar," meaning to long for or to yearn for. It is a beautiful, somewhat formal word that expresses a deep sense of missing something or someone from the past, heavier than simply "extrañar" (to miss).
In the song, the line "lloré tanto añorado" (I cried so much, longing) captures that bittersweet nostalgia, the ache of wanting back a moment that has already slipped away.
This song is a fun, upbeat take on getting over a breakup, even though the lyrics start with some serious sadness! The singer tells us, "como yo sufrí nadie ha subido como yo lloré llorado" [no one has suffered like I have, no one has cried like I have]. But don't worry, that feeling doesn't last long.
Instead of dwelling on the pain, the solution is simple: "una cervecita para empezar y otra con cervezas para ser feliz no necesitas" [one little beer to start and another with beers, you don't need to be happy]. It's all about finding happiness in the moment, even if it's just with a couple of beers. The song even mentions, "dicen que has encontrado la felicidad" [they say you have found happiness], suggesting that moving on and finding joy is totally possible. It's a great reminder that sometimes, a simple change of perspective (and maybe a drink!) can make all the difference.
