Que Envidia Lyrics in English by T3r Elemento
Dichoso translates to "blessed" or "fortunate." It's a word that conveys a strong sense of happiness and good fortune, often implying a state of being favored by destiny.
In "Que Envidia," the singer uses this word with intense irony and longing. He exclaims, "¡Por Dios que dichoso!" (For God's sake, how fortunate!), referring to the new lover who now gets to experience the intimacy and affection that he once shared. It highlights his deep envy and the pain of seeing someone else enjoy what he has lost, making it a poignant and memorable choice.
T3r Elemento's "Que Envidia" is a super relatable song about seeing your ex with someone new and feeling that gut-wrenching jealousy. The singer is absolutely tormented, saying, "Me mata / El mirarte de la mano / Con ese maldito extraño" [It kills me / To see you holding hands / With that damn stranger]. He truly believes this new person can't compare to the love he still holds, and he just can't accept that he's lost her, lamenting that she's forgotten his best kisses, which he "se los gasté contigo" [spent them with you].
The chorus really drives home that feeling of intense envy. He's jealous that the new person gets to "toque tu cuerpo" [touch your body] and that she's "lo primero / Que miren sus ojos" [the first thing / His eyes see] every morning. He even calls the new person "dichoso" [blessed] for it! The pain continues as he imagines her saying "te amo" [I love you] to someone else with that same mouth, and that someone else "te hace el amor / En tu habitación" [makes love to you / In your room]. Despite all this heartache, he admits, "No puedo arrancarte de mi corazón" [I can't tear you from my heart], showing just how deeply he's still in love.
