Antes de Ti

In 'Antes de Ti,' Luja Duhart explores the profound transformation that love can bring into one's life. The song's lyrics paint a vivid picture of a life that was once devoid of direction and joy, only to be completely revitalized by the presence of a significant other. The recurring theme of reality becoming 'tierno y celestial' (tender and heavenly) underscores the almost magical impact this person has had on the singer's life. The metaphor of giving 'alas a mis sueños' (wings to my dreams) and providing 'rumbo y dirección' (course and direction) suggests that love has not only brought happiness but also a sense of purpose and clarity.

The song delves into the idea of equilibrium and balance, with the loved one becoming the singer's 'equilibrio' (balance) and 'dibujando mi camino' (drawing my path). This indicates that the relationship has brought stability and a sense of destiny, as if it was 'escrito en un principio' (written from the beginning) for them to be together. The repetition of 'Antes de ti' (Before you) serves to highlight the stark contrast between the past and the present, emphasizing how life lacked 'ilusión' (illusion) and 'motivo' (motive) before this transformative love entered the picture.

The lyrics also touch on the desire to break free from societal norms and constraints, as seen in the lines 'Rompamos todos los esquemas' (Let's break all the schemes) and 'Rompamos todas las cadenas' (Let's break all the chains). This suggests a love that is not only transformative but also liberating, encouraging the couple to live authentically and fearlessly. The repeated affirmation 'Eres tú' (It's you) serves as a powerful declaration of the loved one's irreplaceable role in the singer's life, making it clear that this relationship is the cornerstone of their newfound happiness and purpose.
