Nuestra Cancion Lyrics in English by Elvis Crespo
Capricho translates to "whim" or "caprice." It describes a sudden, impulsive desire or a fanciful notion, often implying something that might be unreasonable or fleeting.
In "Nuestra Cancion," the singer uses this word to emphasize the sincerity of his request, stating, "No, no es un capricho" (No, it's not a whim). He wants to assure his departing love that his desire for her to remember their song isn't just a passing fancy, but a deep, heartfelt wish for a lasting memory. This makes the word particularly poignant in the context of a farewell.
Get ready to dance and maybe shed a tear with Elvis Crespo's "Nuestra Cancion"! This song is a bittersweet goodbye, where the singer wants his love to remember him by their special song, the one that made them quiet. He says, "Quiero, que me recuerdes por la canción que nos hacia callar" [I want you to remember me by the song that made us quiet]. It's not a whim; he just wants her to remember him forever.
The mood shifts as he says goodbye, feeling very sad because their song played as she left: "Adiós estoy muy triste, Pues hoy que tú te fuiste, Se oyó, nuestra canción" [Goodbye, I am very sad, Because today that you left, Our song was heard]. He knows they can't continue and he couldn't make her happy, but he's taking all the love he felt for her with him. He tells her to chase her dreams and not think about him anymore, even though he can't quite let go, adding a playful "Pequeña, adiós, No no no, échate pa'ca" [Little one, goodbye, No no no, come here] at the end. It's a classic merengue with a touch of heartbreak and a lot of passion!
