Son Del Corazón

Elefante's song 'Son Del Corazón' is a vibrant celebration of life, resilience, and the power of positive thinking. The lyrics emphasize the transient nature of hardships with the phrase 'No hay mal que dure cien años' (No evil lasts a hundred years), suggesting that no matter how tough times get, they are temporary. This sentiment is reinforced by the idea that every negative experience can bring about something good, encapsulated in 'No hay mal que por bien no venga' (There is no evil that doesn't bring some good). The song encourages listeners to embrace life as a joyful journey, a 'juerga' or party, where even the challenges contribute to the richness of the experience.

The chorus, 'Dale vida a tu destino con el ritmo de este son, son, son del corazón' (Give life to your destiny with the rhythm of this heartbeat), serves as a call to action. It urges people to live fully and passionately, guided by the rhythm of their hearts. This metaphor of the heart's rhythm symbolizes authenticity and emotional truth, suggesting that true fulfillment comes from following one's inner desires and instincts. The repetition of 'que lo bailado nadie te lo va quitar' (what you have danced, no one can take away) reinforces the idea that the experiences and joys we accumulate are ours forever, immune to the passage of time or external circumstances.

The song also touches on the importance of expressing oneself openly. Lines like 'Hay cosas que no se callan, hay cosas que hay que gritarlas' (There are things that cannot be kept quiet, there are things that must be shouted) highlight the necessity of vocalizing one's feelings and dreams. This openness is portrayed as a vital part of living a full and authentic life. By encouraging listeners to 'Dale cuerda a tus sentidos' (wind up your senses), Elefante invites them to engage fully with their emotions and experiences, making the most of every moment.
