Soñar No Cuesta Nada

In 'Soñar No Cuesta Nada,' Cabas paints a vivid picture of dreams and aspirations fueled by love and hope. The song's title, which translates to 'Dreaming Costs Nothing,' sets the tone for a narrative where the protagonist promises to give everything to their beloved, from material luxuries like a Mercedes Benz and a house by the sea to the simple joy of walking dogs on a Sunday. These promises are not just about wealth but symbolize the deep affection and commitment the protagonist feels, willing to go to great lengths to make their partner happy.

The lyrics reveal a sense of determination and optimism. The protagonist is ready to travel to other countries to work and seek fortune, driven by the dream of returning to their loved one with the means to fulfill all their promises. This journey is not just a physical one but also an emotional and mental voyage, where the act of dreaming itself becomes a source of comfort and motivation. The repeated line 'soñar no cuesta nada' emphasizes that while achieving these dreams may require effort and sacrifice, the act of dreaming is free and boundless.

Cabas, known for his fusion of traditional Colombian music with modern sounds, uses this song to explore themes of love, ambition, and the power of dreams. The cultural context of the song reflects a common narrative in many Latin American countries, where individuals often leave their homeland in search of better opportunities, driven by the hope of providing a better life for their families. The song resonates with anyone who has ever dared to dream big, despite the challenges and uncertainties that lie ahead.
