Compañera Lyrics in English by Los Rumberos, Reyli Barba, Sanjuan
Praderas translates to "meadows" or "grasslands". It's a beautiful and somewhat poetic word that evokes images of nature and open spaces.
In the song, the singer declares, "Te bajo del altar y te regalo mis praderas" (I'll take you down from the altar and give you my meadows). This line is a grand romantic gesture, offering not just love but also a sense of peace, freedom, and all his worldly possessions, symbolized by the vastness of meadows. It's a unique and memorable way to express devotion.
Have you ever been so completely smitten that you feel like you're losing your mind, but in the best way possible? That's the feeling Los Rumberos and Reyli Barba capture in "Compañera." The singer is absolutely head-over-heels, admitting, "Algunas veces pierdo la razón / Pensando en ti" [Sometimes I lose my mind / Thinking of you]. When their beloved returns, it's pure joy: "Y cuando vuelves tiemblo de emoción / Ya estás aquí" [And when you return I tremble with emotion / You are already here].
This song is a passionate declaration of love and devotion. The singer promises to adore their "compañera" [companion] for life, saying, "Compañera yo te adoraré la vida entera" [Companion, I will adore you my whole life]. They're willing to do anything, even "Me pongo de rodillas frente al mundo cuando quieras" [I will get on my knees before the world whenever you want]. It's a beautiful, almost overwhelming expression of love, acknowledging that some things in life just make you fall in love, even if you don't fully understand them: "Hay cosas en la vida que no entiendes pero te enamoran" [There are things in life that you don't understand but they make you fall in love]. The song even extends this adoration to all women, mothers, grandmothers, sisters, wives, the earth, the guitar, and the moon, showing a deep appreciation for all the 'companions' in life.
