Por Los Buenos Tiempos Lyrics in English by Felipe Peláez
Elegida translates to "chosen one" or "the chosen one." It's a romantic and somewhat poetic term that elevates the person being referred to, suggesting a unique and special connection.
In the context of this song, it's used to express deep affection and commitment, implying that the singer sees this person as the one destined for him. It's a beautiful way to convey profound love and a sense of destiny.
Felipe Peláez's "Por Los Buenos Tiempos" is a heartfelt declaration from someone who's realized that life without their loved one just isn't worth it. He's been living it up, taking trips, and showing off, but he admits, "si al final del cuento estoy aquí sólo en sin ti la vida no vale la pena" [if at the end of the story I'm here alone, without you life isn't worth it]. It's a powerful moment of clarity, isn't it?
He's still reeling from a goodbye he didn't see coming, saying "este último beso que te vi nunca me advirtió la despedida" [this last kiss I saw you give never warned me of the goodbye]. But instead of dwelling on the sadness, he's looking forward, ready to wait for her. He promises, "cuando te tengas cerquita voy a darle gracias al cielo te voy a esperar" [when I have you close I'm going to thank heaven, I'm going to wait for you]. It's a beautiful sentiment about holding onto hope and believing in a future together, even when things are tough.
