Of all the letters of the alphabet
The ones I like the most are the ones with your name
And the one I hate the most is the Ñ
Because without the Ñ
all my problems
They would end in one fell swoop
Without the Ñ
I wouldn't dream of you
I wasn't even like a child all day
Blowing out the candles for every birthday
Wishing you back living in deceit
Without the Ñ
there were no signs
Of the years that you took in my life
You wouldn't even own every song
My worst curse is speaking Spanish
Without the Ñ
Don't hurt me so much
Without the Ñ
I don't miss you
Without the Ñ
I wouldn't dream of you
I wasn't even like a child all day
Blowing out the candles for every birthday
Wishing you back living in deceit
Without the Ñ
there were no signs
Of the years that you took in my life
You wouldn't even own every song
My worst curse is speaking Spanish
Without the Ñ
Don't hurt me so much
Without the Ñ
I don't miss you
Without the Ñ
I don't miss you

This is a love song built on a spelling joke, and it works. Gera Demara starts with the alphabet: of all the letters, his favourites are the ones in her name, and the one he hates is Ñ, the letter Spanish has and English doesn't.

Why? Because without it, so many of his problems would vanish. Look at the words he can't escape: soñar (to dream), niño (child), cumpleaños (birthday), señales (signs), años (years), dueña (owner), daño (hurt) and extraño (I miss you). Every one of them needs an Ñ. Take the letter away and he wouldn't dream of her, wouldn't be blowing out birthday candles wishing she'd come back, wouldn't miss her. His punchline is "Mi peor maldición es hablar español" (my worst curse is speaking Spanish).

It is a clever way to say he can't stop thinking about her: the language itself keeps reminding him. For a learner it doubles as a neat list of everyday Ñ words, plus some useful conditionals like acabarían (they would end) and no hubiera (there wouldn't be).
