Juanes puts on the hat of a cheerful yerbatero — a traditional herbal healer — and invites everyone nursing a broken heart to his musical apothecary. Over vibrant guitars and lively percussion, he lists a playful inventory of potions, plants and secret forest remedies that promise to wipe away sadness, sleepless nights and romantic betrayal.
The song’s message is simple and uplifting: no matter who hurt you or how heavy your heart feels, there is always a cure. Sometimes it is a literal herbal brew, other times it is a dose of self-love or the courage to move on. With catchy chants of “bien, bien, bien,” Juanes turns emotional pain into a dance-floor celebration, reminding listeners that hope, humor and a good rhythm can be the best medicine of all.
