INTRO: (00:21)
"El Condor Pasa" is a Spanish title which means the condor passes, or even, the condor flies by. A condor is a very large type of bird which is commonly seen in the Andes region of South America. The title of the song is in Spanish because the music was written by Daniel Alomía Robles in 1913 and he was a Peruvian. However, the lyrics were written by Paul Simon. One of the lines that you hear very often in the song is "If I could...", which is often used as another title for this song. So, "El Condor Pasa", or "If I Could".
