Capricho Maldito Lyrics in English by Los Dos Carnales, Los Rieleros Del Norte
Capricho maldito translates to "damned whim" or "cursed caprice." It's a strong, evocative phrase that captures a moment of regret and impulsive decision-making.
In the song, the singer uses this phrase to describe a fleeting, ill-advised affair that led him to abandon his good partner and family. It highlights the destructive power of a momentary desire, making it a central theme of the song's narrative about loss and regret.
Los Dos Carnales and Los Rieleros Del Norte team up for "Capricho Maldito," a song about a man completely regretting a bad decision. He's in a "cuarto vacío" [empty room] with "botellas tiradas" [bottles thrown around], crying his heart out. He blames himself, saying "ese es mi destino y es mi merecido por haber herido a quien más me amaba" [this is my destiny and I deserve it for having hurt the one I loved most].
He left a good woman, who was with him through thick and thin, for someone he calls an "aventurera" [adventurer] – someone who just played with him. He calls this mistake a "capricho maldito" [cursed whim] and a "locura de un rato" [momentary madness]. Because of this bad choice, he lost "lo más bonito que Dios me había dado" [the most beautiful thing God had given me]. Now he's just lost, crying for his children and his partner. It's a pretty direct and emotional story of regret!
