¿Qué Ellos Pretenden? Lyrics in English Tito El Bambino
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song ¿Qué Ellos Pretenden? by Tito El Bambino from Spanish to English.
Me hablaron de ti
I heard about you
Me dijeron que no eres merecedora de tenerme
They said you don't deserve me
Que si fuera por ellos te condenarían a muerte
That if it were up to them, they'd condemn you to death
Y, ¿qué puede hacer yo?
And, what can I do?
Si no soy tan perfecto como ellos piensan
If I'm not as perfect as they think
Dentro de mi también guardo mis historietas
Inside me, I also keep my own stories
Ellos pretenden, que te lance con mil piedras
They expect me to throw a thousand stones at you
Que me siente con una libreta
And sit down with a notebook
A apuntar lo que fueron tus debilidades
To list what your weaknesses were
Y qué ellos pretenden, que te lance con mil piedras
And what do they expect, that I throw a thousand stones at you
Que me siente con una libreta
And sit down with a notebook
A apuntar lo que fueron tus debilidades
To list what your weaknesses were
Si me enamoré de ti por tu forma de ser
I fell in love with you for your way of being
Por un mundo nuevo querer conocer
For wanting to know a new world
Y por tratarme como si fuera tu rey
And for treating me as if I were your king
Si me enamoré de ti por tu forma de ser
I fell in love with you for your way of being
Por un mundo nuevo querer conocer
For wanting to know a new world
Y por tratarme como si fuera tu rey
And for treating me as if I were your king
Qué ellos pretenden, qué ellos pretenden
What do they expect, what do they expect
Hay de aquel que hable por lo que has vivido
Woe to him who speaks of what you've lived
Hay de aquel que hable por lo que has sufrido
Woe to him who speaks of what you've suffered
Doble moral tienen todos, doble moral tienen todos
Everyone has double standards, everyone has double standards
Hay de aquel que hable por lo que has vivido
Woe to him who speaks of what you've lived
Hay de aquel que hable por lo que has sufrido
Woe to him who speaks of what you've suffered
Doble moral tienen todos, doble moral tienen todos
Everyone has double standards, everyone has double standards
Hay de aquel que hable por lo que has vivido
Woe to him who speaks of what you've lived
Hay de aquel que hable por lo que has sufrido
Woe to him who speaks of what you've suffered
Doble moral tienen todos, doble moral tienen todos
Everyone has double standards, everyone has double standards

Did you like this lyrics translation?
pretenden — they intend / they pretend
Pretenden comes from the verb pretender, which can mean both 'to intend' or 'to pretend'. This duality makes it an interesting word, as its meaning shifts based on context.
In this song, Tito El Bambino uses it to highlight the hypocrisy of others who judge his relationship. He asks, "¿Qué ellos pretenden?" (What do they intend/pretend?), questioning their motives and their right to dictate his choices. It captures the essence of external judgment and the artist's defiance.
