Dime Con Quien Andas

Mägo de Oz's song 'Dime Con Quien Andas' is a heartfelt ode to companionship and the profound connection between two individuals. The lyrics convey a sense of solidarity and support, emphasizing the importance of having someone by your side through life's journey. The opening lines, 'Si oyes en la noche la voz de la soledad y el rumor que ha llegado el tiempo de ser dos, ¡aquí estoy!' (If you hear the voice of loneliness in the night and the rumor that the time has come to be two, here I am!), set the tone for a song that is both comforting and reassuring.

The recurring theme of being there for one another is beautifully illustrated through metaphors of physical and emotional support. Lines like 'Ten mi mano, apriétala bien, ten mi hombro, apóyate en él' (Take my hand, hold it tight, take my shoulder, lean on it) highlight the tangible ways in which the narrator offers their presence and strength. This imagery is further enriched by the promise to be a constant companion, as seen in 'Y en tu descanso seré el reposo, y en tu camino seré el andar' (And in your rest, I will be the repose, and in your path, I will be the walk).

The song also touches on the idea that true wealth lies not in material possessions but in the relationships we cultivate. The line 'No es más rico el que tiene más, sino que él menos ha de necesitar' (The richest is not the one who has more, but the one who needs less) underscores this sentiment, suggesting that having someone to share your life with is the greatest treasure of all. Mägo de Oz, known for their fusion of rock and folk elements, uses this song to remind listeners of the enduring power of love and companionship.
