The conquest of space
The conquest of your freedom
The conquest of my piano
The conquest of telling each other the truth
Among the artists the enemy isn't found
(the enemy isn't found)
We go through the towns, the capitals
Carrying our music around the sun
We know how to light a bonfire with a guitar
In the center of that fire go the kisses
The gazes, the hugs and the love
And once again
Backtracking
And preparing ourselves for a new world
The conquest that your eyes made of me
The conquest of my sidereal desert
The galaxies look at us
The jaguars, the orchids, the moons and the kids
Outside society
It must be the effect of every man for himself
That makes you insensitive to everything, everything else
I believe that your heart carries melodies
From a long time ago
That sometimes you remember
And you sing them again
The conquest of space
The conquest of your freedom
The conquest of my piano
The conquest of telling each other the truth
The conquest of the streets
The conquest of the right that you earn
The conquest of the hug
The conquest of enjoying
The conquest of space
The conquest of your freedom
The conquest of the streets
The conquest of your freedom

SONG MEANING

La Conquista del Espacio turns the classic idea of conquest upside-down. Instead of armies and flags, Fito Páez sends out guitars, pianos, and fearless honesty. The Argentine icon invites us to travel from small towns to big capitals, carrying music “alrededor del sol,” lighting campfires where every chord sparks kisses, hugs, and new friendships. Each repeated phrase—“la conquista de tu libertad,” “la conquista de decirnos la verdad”—marks a frontier we can win with art, sincerity, and shared joy, not force.

Yet the song isn’t just festive; it’s a gentle protest against a world numbed by the slogan “sálvese quien pueda” (“save yourself if you can”). Páez warns that self-interest makes us insensitive, then reminds us that our hearts still hold ancient melodies waiting to be sung together. By the time the chorus circles back, conquest has become a rallying cry for reclaiming public streets, personal freedom, and the right to feel. In short, this anthem urges you to grab your inner guitar, aim for the stars, and help build a new world where love, art, and community are the real trophies of victory.
