I have not come to ask you

as soil, sir

If before I cry out to you

You know my request

I just want to listen to you

Put the topic, sir

walk in the park

And dedicate a song to you

I just came

to be with you

to be your friend

to share with my God

To adore you and thank you

forever thank you

For what you've done, Lord

With me

tell me about your works

What's new, sir?

And by the way I ask

How is the skin of the sun?

And I just want to hug you

bless you my god

walk the streets

And open my heart to you (eh-yeh-yeh-yeh-yeh)

I just came

to be with you

to be your friend

to share with my God

To adore you and thank you

forever thank you

For what you've done, Lord

I've come

to be with you

to be your friend

to share with my God

To adore you and thank you

forever thank you

For what you've done, Lord

With me

clamarte — to cry out to you / to implore you

Clamarte comes from the verb clamar, meaning 'to cry out', 'to implore', or 'to call out loudly'. It's a more formal and intense word than simply 'pedir' (to ask).

In the context of this song, it highlights a deep, spiritual plea. Juan Luis Guerra sings, "Si antes de yo clamarte, Conoces mi petición" (Even before I cry out to you, You know my petition), emphasizing a profound connection and understanding with a higher power.

Get ready to feel a warm embrace with Juan Luis Guerra's "Tan Solo He Venido"! This song isn't about asking for things, even though the singer admits, "No he venido a pedirte / Como suelo, Señor" [I haven't come to ask you / As I usually do, Lord]. Instead, it's a beautiful expression of wanting to simply be with God.

It's like a friendly chat, where the singer wants to "Solo quiero escucharte / Pon el tema, Señor" [I just want to listen to you / You set the topic, Lord]. He even asks, "¿Cómo es la piel del sol?" [What is the skin of the sun like?], showing a sweet curiosity. The whole song is about spending quality time, being a friend, and giving thanks: "Tan solo he venido / A estar contigo / A ser tu amigo / A compartir con mi Dios" [I have only come / To be with you / To be your friend / To share with my God].
