Día De Los Inocentes Lyrics in English by Jenny And The Mexicats

Inocentes translates to "innocents" or "innocent ones." While it might seem like a common word, its use in the song's title, "Día De Los Inocentes" (Day of the Innocents), refers to a specific cultural tradition.

This phrase is the Spanish equivalent of April Fools' Day, celebrated on December 28th. The song plays on this idea of playful deception and lighthearted tricks, making the word particularly interesting as it hints at a deeper cultural context beyond its literal meaning.

Jenny And The Mexicats bring us a really interesting track with "Día De Los Inocentes"! It feels like a journey of trying to clear one's head and move on, but finding it incredibly difficult. The lyrics talk about wanting to "liberar mi mente" [free my mind] and "despejar las ideas y volver a la tierra" [clear my ideas and return to earth], but then admitting it's hard to face things.

There's a sense of longing for a lost connection, with lines like "sentir que falta el aire y ese calor de los dos que ya no se da" [feeling that the air is missing and that warmth between the two of us that is no longer given]. It's about the struggle to forget pain when it's carried within, and a memory that leaves "un hueco en mi memoria como una herida que no puede sanar" [a hole in my memory like a wound that cannot heal]. The title itself, "Día De Los Inocentes" [Day of the Innocents], which is like April Fool's Day, adds a layer of playful deception or perhaps a bittersweet irony to the whole situation, especially with the repeated line "nos tomaremos el pelo" [we will pull each other's leg].
