Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Pasos De Gigantes by Bacilos from Spanish to English.

I can't laugh, I can't cry

I can't stop remembering you

I can't tell you anything that you don't know

I can only stay like an idiot

Thinking of things that I feel like

Doing with you on lost islands

I can't scream, I can't demand

I can't tell you what I felt

I can't tell you anything, you're so far away

And you who know nothing and know everything

That melt me in so many ways

Tell me where you're going with my life

Carito, the heart is too big for me

When I think of you, I feel giant footsteps

Carito, this song is important

Because when I sing it I swear that you're there in front of me

The situation kept getting complicated

And we must not forget that the heart

You can tell it anything except lies

You were going over there, I was going over here

And it was so beautiful to see you cross

At least for a little while along my path

Carito, the heart is too big for me

When I think of you, I feel giant footsteps

Carito, this song is important

Because when I sing it I swear that you're there in front of me

You're there in front of me

You were going over there, I was going over here

And it was so beautiful to see you cross

At least for a little while along my path

Carito, the heart is too big for me

When I think of you, I feel giant footsteps

Carito, this song is important

Because when I sing it I swear that you're there in front of me

Because when I sing it I swear, I swear

That you're there in front of me

I swear

That you're there in front of me

Because when I sing it I swear that you're there in front of me

SONG MEANING

Pasos De Gigantes is a heartfelt confession set to a breezy Latin pop groove. The singer is stuck in an emotional limbo: he cannot laugh, cry, shout, or even properly speak to the person he loves, yet every memory of her booms through him like giant footsteps. He imagines stolen moments on “islas perdidas” and admits that distance has tied his tongue, but not his heart. The nickname “Carito”—both tender and playful—highlights how dear she is, while the repeated line “cuando la canto yo juro que estás ahí delante” shows how singing becomes a magical shortcut that brings her right in front of him.

At its core, the song celebrates the outsized power of love. Even when two lives are headed in opposite directions, honest feelings refuse to shrink. The chorus pictures a heart “too big” for the singer to handle and thoughts that thunder like pasos de gigante, reminding us that true emotion makes us feel simultaneously tiny and enormous. Bacilos turns this bittersweet mix of longing and hope into an uplifting tune that invites listeners to believe music can close any distance.
