Pobre Corazón wraps a heartbreak story in the infectious rhythm of cuarteto, the party music born in Córdoba, Argentina. The singer sees his relationship slipping away and begs his partner to look at him while he confesses his pain. Lines like “¿Cómo explicarle al corazón que hoy te vas?” show his struggle to convince his own heart that love is over, while the repetitive “te vas, te vas, te vas” hammers home the finality of her departure. He wanders the streets, lost and confused, because every corner still echoes with memories of her warmth.
Yet the track refuses to drown in sorrow. Ke Personajes and guest band Onda Sabanera sprinkle enthusiastic shouts — “¡Arriba las palmas!” — that turn the crowd into part of the healing process. The contrast between desperate lyrics and lively percussion invites you to dance your tears away, proving that even a pobre corazón can find comfort in music, movement, and the shared energy of a live cuarteto celebration.
