bilingual song translation help please?
there is a bilingual song I heard many years ago. It is a rock song. the only english part I remember is 'first I crawl...then I walk' and the chorus was in Spanish (which I don't know). The words sound like 'una beso balear'? Except, when I listen to the pronounciation of balear, it doesn't sound right. It sounded more like 'ball A way' I have googled for days trying to find this song with no luck. I thought maybe if someone could tell me what the words should be I might have better luck. It was a rock type song with male singer. thank you!!!

I just did a Google search on 'first I crawl...then I walk' and several songs with those words came up. I suggest you do the same, From what I read they are too long to post here and none of them had Spanish lyrics that I could see. And I believe some of them are not for this site due to the strong language
I don't remember any strong language in the song, although I suppose there could be, as I don't remember all of the lyrics. I have googled the english part that I remember, with no luck. It was a beautiful song, during the chorus the music had an almost African rhythm/sound, but I'm pretty sure the words were Spanish. Thanks for all of the responses so far, I will continue to check in as well as searching on google
Nila: Completely off topic - What do you mean by "I am wishing it."?
I do not intend to be rude but español -> English errors interest me and I like to know where they come from. And it kinda helps my Spanish so I don't do direct translations from English.
It means: Lo estoy deseando. What happens with that? Is it wrong?
Yes, it is wrong. Issabela is correct in that we rarely use "wish" as a progressive verb. The only one I can think of is "wishing on a star".
Wish in English is not used when you are asking for a response. Wish is used for something that you want but don't expect to get without some intervention (which is why you wish on a star).
In this case, you wouldn't use the word wish. You could say: I'd like to see them. I want to see them.
Or you could just leave it at "Could you write the lyric[s]*, please?"
*Unless you are talking about a single line in a song, lyrics is always plural. And it is far, far more common to use a "line" instead of a lyric whenever you are talking about just one.
Hope that cleared things up.
I was going to copy and paste but it is a bit long.
"Wish" is a state verb and we don't usually use such verbs in a progressive form. You can just say "I want it".
Could you write the lyric, please?
I am wishing it. ![]()
