The Journey of Personal Growth in Juan Carlos Baglietto's 'Tratando De Crecer'

Juan Carlos Baglietto's song 'Tratando De Crecer' (Trying to Grow) is a reflective piece that delves into the themes of personal growth, resilience, and hope. The Argentine musician, known for his contributions to the music genre known as 'Trova Rosarina,' often incorporates social and personal commentary into his lyrics, and this song is no exception.

The opening lines, which mention a Catalan saying about trying to grow rather than just settling down, set the tone for the song. It speaks to the idea of continuous personal development and the journey of life itself. Baglietto uses the metaphor of a 'pibe de barrio' (neighborhood kid) and a 'tropero' (drover) to describe someone who is part of the desperate circus of life, suggesting a commonality in human experience. The imagery of a 'bicho que camina' (walking bug) on a planet emphasizes the smallness of individual existence within the vastness of the universe.

The chorus reflects a sense of emotional vulnerability and a belief in the importance of human connection ('Todavía creo en mirar a los ojos' - I still believe in looking into the eyes). Baglietto expresses a desire to make a difference ('Todavía tengo en mente cambiar algo' - I still have in mind to change something) and acknowledges the vitality that still exists in the world ('Todavía hay mucha gente que está viva' - There are still many people who are alive). The song ends on a hopeful note, envisioning a future where love and kindness are commonplace, and where the beauty of life is celebrated with vibrant colors and a welcoming sea.
