Cuando Te Beso is Juan Luis Guerra’s joyful ode to how one electrifying kiss can set the whole universe in motion. The Dominican maestro paints love with tropical colors: an ocean surges through his veins, flowers bloom across his skin, and a nightingale disrobes on his tongue to serenade the moment. Each image turns a simple kiss into a fireworks show of nature, music, and emotion, letting us feel the rush of Caribbean romance in every metaphor.
In this song, a kiss is powerful enough to earn a Nobel Prize, light up the dawn with fresh stars, and make the moon tremble over a river. Guerra’s lyrics remind us that real passion rewrites the laws of science and poetry alike: logic is bitten away, dreams are baptized, and hearts fold in on themselves with pure delight. Cuando Te Beso invites you to taste that magical instant where love, art, and the natural world all burst into bloom at once.
