The first Spanish song I ever heard was Shakira’s song called “Estoy aquí”, which means “I am here”. It was because of this song that I started to learn Spanish; I really wanted to know what the words mean, especially the fast bits in the middle, so I sat with a dictionary and tried to translate the whole song (this was back in the days before you could easily go onto Google Translate). I became fascinated with Spanish and went on to learn it at university, but I must admit that a good proportion of the words I know first came from Shakira songs.
So, let’s have a look at one of my favourite Shakira songs, “Estoy Aquí”. I will go through the song, bit by bit and explain what it means, but I’ve put a link to the entire song in full in the description for this video, so you can enjoy it in its entirety. As we go through the song, I’ll explain any interesting Spanish language points that will be useful for you to know.
Here is the link to Shakira's full song and video for Estoy Aquí with the English lyrics, so you can enjoy it in all its glory: • Spanish with Shakira -...
Here are the full lyrics, just in case you want them:
Ya, sé que no vendrás
Todo lo que fue, el tiempo lo dejó atrás
Sé que no regresarás
Lo que nos pasó no repetirá jamás
I already know that you won’t come
Everything that was, time left it behind
I know you won’t come back
What happened to us won’t happen again
Mil años no me alcanzarán
Para borrarte y olvidar
A thousand years won’t be enough
In order for me to erase you and forget
Y ahora estoy aquí
Queriendo convertir los campos en ciudad
Mezclando el cielo con el mar
Sé que te dejé escapar, sé que te perdí
Nada podrá ser igual
And now I’m here
Wanting to turn the fields into a city
Mixing up the sky with the sea
I know that I let you escape, I know that I lost you
Nothing can be the same
Mil años pueden alcanzar
Para que puedas perdonar
A thousand years can be enough
So that you might be able to forgive
Estoy aquí queriéndote,
Ahogándome entre fotos y cuadernos
Entre cosas y recuerdos
Que no puedo comprender
I am here wanting you,
Drowning in photos and notebooks
Amongst things and memories
That I can’t understand
Estoy enloqueciéndome
Cambiándome un pie por la cara mía
Esta noche por el día
Y nada le puedo yo hacer
I am driving myself crazy
Changing a foot for my face
This night for the day
And I can do nothing about it
Las cartas que escribí, nunca las envié
No querrás saber de mí
No puedo entender lo tonta que fui
Es cuestión de tiempo y fe
The letters that I wrote, I never sent them
You won’t want to know about me
I can’t understand how stupid I was
It’s a matter of time and faith
Mil años con otros mil más
Son suficientes para amar
A thousand years with another thousand more
Are enough to love
Estoy aquí queriéndote,
Ahogándome entre fotos y cuadernos
Entre cosas y recuerdos
Que no puedo comprender
I am here wanting you,
Drowning in photos and notebooks
Amongst things and memories
That I can’t understand
Estoy enloqueciéndome
Cambiándome un pie por la cara mía
Esta noche por el día y qué
I am driving myself crazy
Changing a foot for my face
This night for the day and what
Si aún piensas algo en mí
Sabes que sigo esperándote
If you still think about me at all
You know that I’m still waiting for you
Estoy aquí queriéndote,
Ahogándome entre fotos y cuadernos
Entre cosas y recuerdos
Que no puedo comprender
I am here wanting you,
Drowning in photos and notebooks
Amongst things and memories
That I can’t understand
Estoy enloqueciéndome
Cambiándome un pie por la cara mía
Esta noche por el día y qué
I am driving myself crazy
Changing a foot for my face
This night for the day and what - เพลง
This is the most effective way to learn another language. Thank you for this unconventional, creative method.
Addicted to his way of teaching. Very efficient and easy to understand.
Es un clásico de la música en español 🙌
Proud about this song ... Is one of the best songs of Shakira ... I learn english with The Carpenters ❤❤
Excellent! Thanks for all the examples.
Gracias very happy that I found this
As a Martian, Spanish is one of my favourite languages to learn. El español es un idioma muy bonita. De verdad, I found your video helps. I hope to visit Earth soon. Gracias 🌷👽
I love this!!!!! Thank you
I love your simple explanation, I'm new to learning Spanish and good choice she has a beautiful voice.
Omg I and so many other people who are starting to learn Spanish are so blessed with your channel!!! You explain everything so simple and well. It really motivates me to continue learning Spanish! Also, learning languages with songs, movies, e.t.c truly is the most effective way. I generally don't understand anything from grammar books... I learn best from the direct context and word for word explanation just like you did in this video. So amazing, please keep it up!!!
Greetings from Germany :)
Thank you very much! :-)
Ya aprendiste todo.? y yo que quiero aprender ingles

Stumbled across this channel by accident and I am so happy and grateful! I can bolster my learning of Spanish and French and my appreciation of Shakira!!
Love it! Thank you! Keep up the good work. I needed exactly this - learning from the songs. It is much more interesting and easier with the context than oldschool teaching from scratch. Thanks again!
You're the teacher I needed
Yo estoy tratando de aprender inglés y resulte aquí. Muy buen video
Yo igual, es una buena manera para saber como lo hacen ellos y poder entender su logica Mejor.

That is the best Spanish lesson ever! Thank you! 😍😍😍
I love it, great way to improve my Spanish. Gracias!
Wow! You explained this song so easily and clearly. My brain was able to follow this in a way that allowed me to connect with the grammar! I will keep following this to learn the whole song now. I am an a beginner intermediate level so this was perfect for me. Thank you!
Muchas gracias :-)
Exactly the type of video I was looking for! Thank you, much love from India :)))
This is exactly the kind of video that I have been looking for! Thank you so much for making this! My only issue is that the volume is so low. I have my speakers turned all the way up, but I can barely hear. My house is a bit noisy. I'll have to wait and watch with headphones, but I'd like to listen and learn as I go about my day.
Gracias :-)
I have a new microphone now, so hopefully my next video will be a better volume
Thanks bro, you have a new sub. Bless you
Thank you so much for this material. My only complaint is I want more songs in Spanish. You did a great job Of not only explaining this song but also showing how the verbs are used in different contexts. Please make more. Thank you.
This is great !
“Estoy Aqui” was one of my favourite songs back in ‘96! I asked a friend to translate it for me

Shakira got famous in the US when I hit puberty. She made me realize my man bits could do more than expel water waste.

Con Shakira no es muy fácil entendió el español
The music of this song is an obvious theft from the song " i'll Stand By You" by the Pretenders. And the funniest fact is that after a few years she herself sang a cover version of this song of the Pretenders and no one criticized her that it was actually the song from which she stole the music ... :))
Wow, I never noticed this before. The first ten notes of each song are in the same melody, but I think then they start to drift apart.
Having said that, if you read through some of the comments on Shakira's "I'll Stand By You" video, you'll learn plenty of Spanish vocab from the people discussing this: th-cam.com/video/HDrx9KP8a1w/w-d-xo.html
The first comment I read said, "¿Nadie va a decir nada del hecho de lo parecida que es al comienzo de "Estoy Aquí"?"
(Is nobody going to say anything about the fact that it's similar to the start of "Estoy Aquí"?)
@@3MinuteLanguages :))) She was at the beginning of her career and probably did not believe that the song would be so famous and it would be revealed where she got the music from. Anyway, like any criminal who returns to the crime scene, she too did a cover version of the original song :)
