En Algún Lugar Lyrics in English Duncan Dhu

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song En Algún Lugar by Duncan Dhu from Spanish to English.
Verse 1
Somewhere in a great country
They forgot to build
A home where the sun doesn't burn
And when you're born you don't have to die
And in the shadows
Geniuses die without knowing
Of their magic
Conceived
Verse 1
Without asking for it
A long time
Before being born
Chorus 1
There's no road that
Reaches here
And then tries to leave
With the fire of
The sunset
The grass burns
Verse 2
Somewhere in a great country
They forgot to build
A home where the sun doesn't burn
And when you're born you don't have to die
A whistle
Crosses the town and is seen
Verse 2
A rider
That leaves
With the wind
Verse 2
While he shouts
That he's not coming back
Bridge
And the land here
Is a different color
The dust doesn't let you see
Bridge
Men no longer
Know if they are
But they want to believe it
The mothers that now
Don't know how to cry
See their children leave
The sadness here
Has no place
When what's sad is living
Nah, nah, nah, nah

SONG MEANING

Picture a forgotten town baking under an unforgiving sun. That is where Duncan Dhu takes us in “En Algún Lugar,” a poetic snapshot of a place that progress skipped. The lyrics paint vivid scenes — grass igniting beneath a sunset, geniuses fading into the shadows, a lone rider whistling his farewell. Every image highlights how hope evaporates when a community is left without shelter, recognition, or even a clear sense of identity.

Beneath its catchy melody, the song is a sharp social commentary. It reminds us that when a society “olvida construir un hogar,” people grow up expecting hardship, mothers lose the strength to cry, and men are unsure whether they remain men at all. The departing horseman becomes a symbol of the last spark of possibility escaping into the wind. By inviting listeners to this dust-choked nowhere, Duncan Dhu urges us to notice the real-world places and people we overlook every day and to imagine rebuilding a home where the sun still shines but no one is burned by it.
