My grandfather came to visit me
On a night like this
I asked him why you left
And in an attempt to answer
He said, 'I didn't want to leave you
But I don't want to see you sad
Remember that there's your father
And take care of it you promised me'
Suddenly I threw myself into his arms
And when you meet me in your gaze
I confessed in a low tone
I'm missing you so much
I couldn't hold back the tears
And just like when I was a kid
He held my hand tight
Until I fell asleep
My grandfather came to visit me
As I asked him in his bed
And even though I can't hear him anymore
I've got it beating in my chest
My grandfather came to visit me
And I pray it keeps coming
Like he does every night
To console me in my dreams
My grandfather came to visit me
As I asked him in his bed
And even though I can't hear him anymore
I've got it beating in my chest
My grandfather came to visit me
And I pray it keeps coming
Like he does every night
To console me in my dreams
Like he does every night
To console me in my dreams

arrojéI threw myself

Arrojé is the past tense (preterite) of the verb arrojar, which means "to throw" or "to hurl". While it can be used literally, in this song, it's used metaphorically to convey a strong emotional action.

In the lyrics, "De pronto me arrojé en sus brazos" translates to "Suddenly I threw myself into his arms." This powerful imagery expresses a sudden, intense, and emotional embrace, highlighting the deep connection and longing the singer feels for his grandfather.

Get ready to feel all the feels with Alex Fernandez's "Mi Abuelo Vino A Visitarme" [My Grandfather Came to Visit Me]! This song is a beautiful and touching story about a grandson who is visited by his deceased grandfather in a dream. It's so relatable if you've ever lost someone you love and wished you could just talk to them one more time.

In the dream, the grandson asks his grandfather why he left, and his grandfather's response is so sweet and comforting: "no quería dejarte / Pero no quiero verte triste / Recuerda que ahí está tu padre / Y cuidarlo me prometiste" [I didn't want to leave you / But I don't want to see you sad / Remember your father is there / And you promised me you'd take care of him]. It's a reminder of the love and guidance that continues even after someone is gone. The song really captures that deep longing for connection, as the grandson confesses, "Me estás haciendo mucha falta" [I'm missing you so much]. And the way the grandfather holds his hand until he falls asleep, just like when he was a child, is incredibly moving. It's a powerful look at grief, love, and the comfort we find in our memories and dreams.
