I decided to give my own take on the translation, just what feels more natural to me. I get scared of when you go out, smiling out in the street, because everyone can see, the lil' dimples on your face . ...and of the air when it passes, when it flows through your hair and the gold that dresses you, for clinging to your neck . And the sky and the moon, that you gaze at even the water that you drink, when it touches your lips. I think about your piercing gaze, it's like a bullet to the chest x7 I think about your gaze , I think about your gaze. I get scared of when you go out, smiling out in the street, because everyone can see, the lil' dimples on your face x2 So pretty that its threatening, and when you go quiet, it scares me. As cold as the snow that falls from the sky . When you go out the door, I think you might never come back , and if I don't hold you tight, it would feel as if it was my fault . I think about your piercing gaze, it's like a bullet to the chest x7 I think about your gaze, I think about your gaze. I get scared of when you go out, smiling out in the street, because everyone can see, the lil dimples on your face. x2
Very interesting conversation and thanks for getting it going! I think "Clava" means, literally, "nailed", so my sense of the translation would be something like "Thinking how you nail me with your look, is like a bullet to the chest"... tal vez....
the entire album is actually based on a spanish book of the 13th century called "Flamenca". That´s why each song is named as "Chapter...". This one is sung from the perspective of the main character´s husband.
Thank you for that. I too thought it was from the woman’s perspective but it wasn’t making sense with the music video. Now the music video makes so much more sense lol
This song is sung from the point of view of her toxic couple. The entire lyric is what he thinks. That's why the title of the song is "celos", means "jealousy". The entire album is about toxic relationships.
ella canta desde el punto de vista del hombre, que comienza con los celos hacia elloa.. ya que todo el album de "El Mal Querer" se centra en el proceso de una relación tóxica
All her album it´s based on a book about a marriage in wich the husband is possessive and very jealous, also that´s why Rosalia´s songs have the name of chapters in addition to the titles, In this song she is talking in the place of the husband. I hope I´ve helped and I´m sorry for my writen my english is not very good.
It is about jealously... Of the wind that touches her hair, of the gold that "dresses" her body, of the moon because she wants to look at it.. Jealosy that she feels like a bullet in tge chest, jealosy she is afraid of...
*Finally someone that made a decent translation of the song.* You deserve more views and likes for sure. It's so frustrating watching English speakers that don't understand a shit of Spanish and they are still reacting to the song. I hope they stop with their nonsenses and watch this video along with the official one; So at least they can understand something about what's going on. I even watched a black dude reaction where he was dancing to it, moving the arms like crazy. Like this was some pop shit song... Frustrating.
Well I mean, Let the English Speakers still enjoy... It's the "Heart" that Understands.. Right? Yet I was upset there wasn't a proper translation too, this one.. I could correct a couple things. But man thanks to the maker of this video.
its sad because I primarily speak english but just by hearing her sounds ans feeling the music along with my limited understanding I can pull deep meaning from the concept of the lyrics in this song. yet others jump to seeing it negatively
@@aisho894 mira lo que pasa es que el ingles es mas especifico para expresar situaciones según qué elementos; en español decimos "bala clavada" como podría usarse para decir "puñal clavado" por ejemplo, pero en ingles no es así la palabra "stab" se usa solo para referirse a una herida de cuchillo o algo corto punzante provocado por alguien, pero no se usa "stab" para referirse a una bala; yo usaría mas bien la palabra "stuck" para referirme a una bala clavada o atascada; pero creo que también está bien la palabra fixed ya que se refiere a una bala atascada o fijada
@@soyjuan8877 excelente explicación! Eso sucede sólo en algunos casos, en otros es precisamente lo contrario; el español es más determinante y restrictivo sobre cómo se dicen o expresan algunas cosas. Mientras que el Inglés es hasta más divagante o cuasi metafórico.
