Si Supieras Lyrics in English by Jessi Uribe, Luisito Muñoz
Esculcarías comes from the verb esculcar, which means to rummage through, search deeply, or investigate thoroughly. It's a less common word than simply "buscar" (to look for) and carries a stronger sense of intense, almost desperate searching.
In the song, the singer uses this word to express that if his loved one knew how much he's suffering, she would "esculcarías en lo profundo de tu alma" (rummage deep within your soul) to find forgiveness and return to him. It highlights the depth of introspection and effort he believes she would undertake.
Have you ever missed someone so much it felt like you couldn't breathe? That's the powerful emotion at the heart of "Si Supieras" by Colombian singers Jessi Uribe and Luisito Muñoz. The title translates to "If You Knew," and the song is a desperate plea to a former lover. The singer is heartbroken, telling his ex that if she only knew how his life has been since she left—filled with tears ("todas las lágrimas que derramo por ti")—she would surely come back.
This isn't just a sad song; it's an argument for a second chance. The singer begs his ex to search her soul ("esculcarías en lo profundo de tu alma") and forgive his past mistakes. He reminds her of how happy he made her and insists that she must miss him too, especially in their bed ("me extrañas en tu cama"). He believes their connection is so essential that without each other, it's like they're both missing "the same air to live" ("nos falta el mismo aire para vivir").
