Una Palabra Lyrics in English Carlos Varela

Carlos Varela’s “Una Palabra” is a poetic puzzle about the hidden power of language and love. One single word, one glance, even one truth can seem empty at first… yet each can secretly contain an entire universe of feelings. Varela paints this paradox with vivid images: wind masking water, rain sliding down a face, an old treasure map waiting to be read. The song invites us to notice everything that lies beneath the surface of everyday gestures.

At its heart, the track is an intimate love confession. The narrator admits that without the other person he would be “nothing,” while at the same time feeling he could be “everything” because their eyes give him wings. This mix of vulnerability and empowerment shows how love can both expose and rescue us, making life feel like the shoreline where we risk drowning and yet learn to fly. “Una Palabra” is a lyrical reminder that the simplest things we say—or leave unsaid—can carry the deepest meaning.
