cora' — heart (slang)

Cora' is a slang, shortened version of the Spanish word "corazĂłn," which means "heart." It's a common informal term used in many Latin American countries, especially in urban music.

In the context of this song, the lyrics say, "Para sanar el cora'" (To heal the heart). This usage perfectly captures the song's theme of moving on from a breakup with a casual, party-centric attitude, making it an engaging and relevant word for learners interested in modern Spanish slang.

Have you ever dealt with a tough breakup? Argentinian artist Luck Ra and Spanish singer Lola Indigo have the perfect anthem for you! This song is all about the best way to heal a broken heart: forget the tears and grab your friends for a night out.

The story starts with a friend named MarĂ­a who has just broken up with her boyfriend. Instead of staying home and crying, her solution is to go dancing. The chorus gives us the main rule: "Por el ex no se llora / Por el ex hoy se bebe" (You don't cry for an ex / Today, you drink for an ex). The prescribed cure is a glass of Fernet, a popular drink in Argentina, to show the ex exactly what they're missing. Lola Indigo's verse adds to this powerful message, declaring she won't cry and will instead be on the dance floor, ready to move on and have a wild time.

Juan Facundo Almenara Ordóñez, known professionally as Luck Ra, is a dynamic Argentine singer born in Córdoba in 1999. Emerging onto the music scene in 2017 through YouTube, Luck Ra quickly gained recognition with his remix of "No Quiero Mas" alongside Seven Kayne, solidifying his presence in the Latin trap and reggaeton genres.

His 2021 hit "Te MentirĂ­a" and collaborations with notable cuarteto and cumbia artists expanded his audience, while his 2023 single "La Morocha" dominated the Billboard Argentina charts and became the anthem of the summer. Beyond chart success, Luck Ra has also made his mark on television as a coach on the popular show La Voz Argentina starting in 2025. His innovative blend of Latin trap, reggaeton, and cumbia continues to captivate fans across Latin America and beyond.
