Quiero Lyrics in English Shakira

“Quiero” is Shakira’s passionate love letter to that one person who makes life feel electric. Line after line she paints an intense picture of wanting it all – to “devour” every thought of her partner, to kiss away the freckles, to hold them so tight “hasta que parta los huesos.” It is an anthem of overflowing desire: she wants to follow, to pursue, to love night and day, wearing the relationship like a tattoo. The Colombian superstar mixes tender metaphors with almost wild imagery, showing that real love can be both sweet and a little bit crazy.

At its heart, the song celebrates an all-consuming connection. Each chorus repeats “Quiero” (“I want”), turning the word into a drumbeat of longing that refuses to settle for anything less than total immersion. Shakira tells her listener that love should flood the skies, drench the earth, and steal your breath. It is bold, dramatic, and undeniably catchy – a reminder that sometimes the best way to live is to love so fiercely that it leaves you dizzy, laughing, and wonderfully alive.
