Que Bailen Lyrics in English Alba Reche , Cami

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Que Bailen by Alba Reche from Spanish to English.
Verse 1
The heart of a wounded one beats
That doesn't sing or make a sound
That doesn't even know how to cry
I keep my word to my neighbor
A painful hug
It keeps burning sky and sea
Chorus 1
Hope keeps trotting, girl
Short steps, long life
It's marching to its mom
Let them dance
That the streets change
That they can see
You see thirst and hunger
Death in the streets
You'd rather stay silent
Let them dance
Let them dance
Let them dance
Verse 2
From the lungs
Drawing screams
Of a people without peace
Sewing old rips and voids
They crawl along the floor
Mocking, 'cause they're not there
Chorus 2
Hope keeps trotting, girl
Short steps, long life
It's marching to its mom
Let them dance
That the streets change
That they can see
You see thirst and hunger
Death in the streets
You'd rather stay silent
You'd rather stay silent
Outro
Let them dance
Let them dance
Let them dance
Let them dance
Let them dance
Let them dance

SONG MEANING

“Que Bailen” blends Alba Reche’s Spanish soul with Cami’s Chilean intensity to create a heartfelt protest anthem wrapped in a hauntingly beautiful melody. The lyrics paint scenes of wounded hearts, empty stomachs, and silenced voices while a stubborn spark of esperanza keeps marching on. Over pulsing beats, the singers urge us: “Deja que bailen” – let them dance – because dancing here symbolizes freedom, dignity, and the right to exist in joy even when the streets are filled with hunger and loss.

The song calls listeners to open their eyes, swap apathy for action, and transform pain into movement. Each repetition of the chorus becomes a rallying cry: if we allow the oppressed to dance, we begin to change the streets, heal old wounds, and stitch together a more compassionate world. In short, “Que Bailen” is both a lament and a celebration – a reminder that hope keeps stepping forward, one beat at a time, inviting everyone to join the dance of resistance.
