Today my feet ask me for sand

I remembered your salt kisses

What did you give me under the palm trees?

The problems are silent, when I listen to the sea

The city has its sirens

But they are not the kind that I would like

What irony that from the roof

You can't see stars from this skyscraper

And Lola, the wave has already reached us

To paint our history with each sunset

Lola, the wave has already reached us

Of not counting the hours and escaping from the clock

What waves are they?

waves going to the beach

What waves are they?

I carry the guitar

(What waves are they, what waves are they?)

I'm going to sing to you

To shake off all your ills

Let's go swimming

That the sea heals everything, you know

That only a chela and a hammock are enough

four sunny kisses

And hold you in the morning

to make you happy

Lola, the wave has already reached us

To paint our history with each sunset

Lola, the wave has already reached us

Of not counting the hours and escaping from the clock

What waves are they?

waves going to the beach

What waves are they?

I carry the guitar

What waves are they?

Wave launching for a few beers

What waves are they?

Campfire wave and rolas 90eras (what waves are they? What waves are they?)

And every sunset that I don't spend at sea

It wasn't worth waking up

Lola, the wave has already reached us

To paint our history with each sunset

Lola, the wave has already reached us

Of not counting the hours and escaping from the clock

What waves are they?

waves going to the beach

What waves are they?

I carry the guitar

What waves are they?

Wave launching for a few beers

What waves are they?

Good night (what waves are they? what waves are they?)

Ever felt like escaping the city for the beach? Los Rumberos totally get it in "Qué Olas Son?" The singer's feet are craving sand, and he's remembering "tus besos de sal" [your salty kisses] under palm trees. He contrasts the city's "sirenas" [sirens] with the peaceful sound of the ocean, lamenting that from a skyscraper, "no se ven estrellas" [you can't see stars]. It's a call to leave the urban grind behind and embrace the simple joys of the coast.

This song is all about seizing the moment with someone special, Lola. The "ola" [wave] has arrived to "pintar nuestra historia con cada puesta de sol" [paint our story with every sunset] and "escaparnos del reloj" [escape the clock]. What kind of waves are they? "Olas de ir a la playa" [Waves to go to the beach], "ola de lanzarse por unas cervezas" [wave to go get some beers], and even "ola de fogata y rolas 90eras" [wave of bonfire and 90s songs]. He promises to sing to her "para sacudir todos tus males" [to shake off all your troubles], because, as he says, "todo lo cura el mar, ya sabes" [the sea cures everything, you know]. A beer, a hammock, some sun-kissed kisses, and morning hugs are all it takes to make her happy. It's a sweet, laid-back invitation to a perfect beach getaway.
