Latins referred originally to an Italic tribe in ancient central Italy. As Roman power spread Latin culture, Latins came to mean anyone who lives in a Latinized culture and speaks Latin or a Romance language (see Latin peoples).
The original Latins were an Italic tribe inhabiting central Italy, in present-day Lazio. Through the conquests of their most populous city-state, Rome, the Latins culturally "Romanized" or "Latinized" the rest of Italy, and the word Latin ceased to mean a particular ethnicity, acquiring a more cultural sense. As the Roman Empire spread to include areas that are now Spain, Portugal, France, and Romania, these joined Italy in becoming "Latin," as the languages spoken in these countries derive primarily from the Latin Language. In the late 15th–16th centuries, a millennium after the fall of the Western Roman Empire, Portugal, Spain, and France began to create world empires. In consequence, by the mid-19th century, the former American colonies of these nations became known as Latin America and this region's inhabitants as Latin Americans.
The Latins (Latin: Latini), sometimes known as the Latians, were an Italic tribe which included the early inhabitants of the city of Rome. From about 1000 BC, the Latins inhabited the small region known to the Romans as Old Latium (Latium Vetus), that is, the area between the river Tiber and the promontory of Mount Circeo 100 kilometres (62 mi) SE of Rome.
The Latins were an Indo-European people who probably migrated into the Italian peninsula during the late Bronze Age (1200–900 BC). Their language, Latin, belonged to the Italic branch of Indo-European. Their material culture, known as the Latial culture, was a distinctive subset of the Iron Age Villanovan culture that appeared in parts of the Italian peninsula after 1000 BC. Although divided from an early stage into communities which mutated into several independent, and often warring, city-states, the Latins maintained close culturo-religious relations until they were definitively united politically under Rome in 338 BC, and for centuries beyond. These included common festivals and religious sanctuaries.
Sed de amor
La lluvia que resbala
Sobre mi cuerpo mojara la piel
El humo se quema adentro como un volcán intenso Apunto de estallar
Es como un fuego lento
Que arde en mi cuerpo
Y yo sin ti
Atrapado en el deseo por no tener tu cuerpo
Por no tenerte a ti
Sed de amor de estar entre tus brazos
Sed de amor de fundirnos cuerpo a cuerpo
Si no me quieres guarda silencio
Pero no me rompas la ilusión
Sed de amor
Si me aceptas grítalo
Si no quieres cállalo
Sed de amor
Si me quieres dilo ya
Llena este hueco corazón
Me tienes en tu juego
Estoy entre la espada y la pared
Atrapado en el deseo
Por no tener tu cuerpo
Por no tenerte a ti
Sed de amor de estar entre tus brazos
Sed de amor de fundirnos cuerpo a cuerpo
Si no me quieres guárdalo en silencio
Pero no me rompas la ilusión
Sed de amor
Si me aceptas grítalo
Si no quieres cállalo
Sed de amor
Si me quieres dilo ya
Llena este hueco corazón
Sed de amor
Si me aceptas grítalo
Si no quieres cállalo
Sed de amor
Si me quieres dilo ya
Llena este hueco corazón
