Y Ahora Quien Lyrics in English by Gera MX
Caprichos translates to "whims" or "cravings." It refers to sudden, often unreasonable desires or impulses.
In the song, Gera MX asks, "¿Quién te va a cumplir tus caprichos, mami?" (Who is going to fulfill your whims, mami?). This word is interesting because it highlights a specific aspect of a relationship—attending to a partner's desires—and suggests a deeper level of care and attention that the singer feels he can no longer provide due to his own ambitions.
Gera MX's "Y Ahora Quién" is a really honest and introspective look at the aftermath of a breakup. He starts by describing a quiet night in, trying to escape the world and his memories: "Hoy me guardé temprano en casa Apagaré mi cel, no quiero saber qué pasa" [Today I stayed home early I'll turn off my phone, I don't want to know what's happening]. He's trying to find comfort in solitude, but everything reminds him of his ex, even the radio. He admits to being a "niño terco" [stubborn child], just as she might have said.
He reflects on their past, acknowledging his flaws and how he loved her "a mi manera aunque no fue la más cordial" [in my own way, even if it wasn't the most cordial]. There's a bittersweet feeling of peace because everything was real, and he feels good about not hurting her, but bad about letting her go. The core question of the song, "Y ahora quién con un beso te lleva al Edén?" [And now who with a kiss takes you to Eden?], shows his lingering pain and wonder about who will take his place. He even drunkenly wrote both their names on a train, a poignant image of a love that was meant to last. He ends by saying he has to focus on his music, his life project, and wishes her well, asking "¿Quién te va a cumplir tus caprichos, mami?" [Who will fulfill your whims, mami?]. It's a raw and relatable journey through heartbreak, regret, and ultimately, moving on.
