Un Ángel Abrió Alas turns a late-night stumble into a mystical revelation. Fito Páez paints a cinematic moment: Death barges in like a tipsy party crasher, yet in the same shiver of fear an angel unfurls its wings, flooding the room with a blinding splendor. With one more swig of liquor the narrator watches a sun-beam sweep away every ghost, reminding us that even in the darkest hours light can break through.
Out on the street, still "casi loco, medio borracho," a child’s grin becomes another angelic sign. A golden glow ecualiza his soul and whispers, “keep going.” The chorus wraps it all up: amidst the wild vineyard of life there is nothing better than being alive right now. The song is a toast to resilience, finding beauty in chaos, and letting brief flashes of innocence guide us through the noisy, intoxicating world of today.
