Christian Nodal and Ángela Aguilar’s Collab Song ‘Dime Cómo Quieres’: English Lyrics
This is their first and only collaboration to date, which narrates a love story
Christian Nodal and Ángela Aguilar have been in the spotlight since announcing they are officially a couple. This follows shortly after he parted ways with Argentine trap artist Cazzu. As Ángela mentioned, they have known each other for quite some time, specifically since 2018 when she was 14 and he was 18. Their age difference has been one reason why their romance didn’t begin earlier.
In November 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Nodal and Aguilar released their first and only collaboration so far, called «Dime Como Quieres» (Tell Me How You Want). Ángela, who was 17 at the time, made history by becoming the youngest female singer to reach No. 1 on Billboard’s Regional Mexican Airplay chart in January 2021 with this song.
The song tells a love story where Nodal is deeply in love with Ángela, who rejects him because she doesn’t fall for his attempts to win her over. Now, years after the song was released, their love story has finally come true. “Now I find myself experiencing something wonderful with a woman I love, a love that took many years to happen, and we’re enjoying it, living through this experience,” Nodal said about his current relationship with the singer.
«Dime Cómo Quieres» English Translation
[Verse: Christian Nodal & Ángela Aguilar]
It all started when I saw you pass by
I felt something so beautiful that I don’t know how to explain
You caught me and I liked you more
Oh, what a cool little rancher, hello, how are you?
I warn you from now on that with beautiful words
It’s not enough for you to be able to conquer me
I’m not one of those easy ones like those girls
with which I have always seen you walking
[Pre-Chorus: Christian Nodal & Ángela Aguilar]
What if I bring you roses?
Anyway they are going to wither
What if I bring you serenades?
However my dad is going to get rid of you
Ha, oh
[Chorus: Christian Nodal & Ángela Aguilar]
Tell me how you want me to love you
This guy is done your way
Ask for that beautiful mouth
That for you I would do anything
Tell me what else you want me to tell you
If my friends don’t love you
And a little less my family
What will they think if one day they look at us?
[Post-Chorus: Christian Nodal & Ángela Aguilar]
Ayayai, I’m not as bad as they say
Ayayai, I’m not a fool to let myself be fooled, oh
[Interlude: Christian Nodal & Ángela Aguilar]
Hahaha, Angelita, don’t be so mean
And you don’t be so flirtatious
[Pre-Chorus: Christian Nodal & Ángela Aguilar]
What if I bring you roses?
Anyway they are going to wither
What if I bring you serenades?
However my dad is going to get rid of you
Ha, oh
[Chorus: Christian Nodal & Ángela Aguilar]
Tell me how you want me to love you
This guy is done your way
Ask for that beautiful mouth
That for you I would do anything
Tell me what else you want me to tell you
If my friends don’t love you
And a little less my family
What will they think if one day they look at us?
[Post-Chorus: Christian Nodal & Ángela Aguilar]
Ayayai, I’m not as bad as they say
Ayayai, I’m not a fool to let myself be fooled, oh
