Oh, southern elf
Oh, oh, oh, of the south
You are a magical being
With your gaze, everything is better
Walking slowly
My head flies with you
Feeling you as I pass by
Letting myself go
Grow inside me
To a better place
Chorus 1
Oh, southern elf
Walking down the street I saw you
Walking down the street I saw you
And one day I fell in love
With you
And one day I fell in love with you
How lucky you were that you crossed my path
Signs, encounters, whims of fate
Forgetting the rest
Learning to walk
Grow inside me
To a better place
Chorus 2
Oh, southern elf
Walking down the street I saw you
Walking down the street I saw you
And one day I fell in love
With you
And one day I fell in love with you
Waiting by the river to eat your heart
Where does the current
Stay with me forever
Chorus 3
Oh, southern elf
Walking down the street I saw you
Walking down the street I saw you
And one day I fell in love
With you
And one day I fell in love with you
Oh, southern elf

SONG MEANING

Duende del Sur is Chambao’s sunny love letter to a mysterious spirit from Andalusia, a duende whose very gaze turns the ordinary world into something dazzling. The singer spots this magical being while strolling down the street and instantly feels her mind lift off, floating toward “a better place.” Each gentle step and passing glance stirs up a sense of destiny, as if chance, signs, and the whims of fate have all conspired to make this encounter happen.

As the rhythm rolls like a lazy river, the lyrics celebrate that intoxicating first spark of love. The narrator forgets everything else, learns to “walk” in a brand-new way, and longs to keep the duende close forever. Beneath the laid-back flamenco-electronic groove lies a universal message: when magic crosses your path, follow it with an open heart, let it pull you toward hope, wonder, and a brighter inner landscape.
