Brujería translates to "witchcraft" or "sorcery". It's a captivating and somewhat dramatic word that immediately grabs attention, suggesting a powerful, almost magical influence.
In the song, the artist uses it to describe the intense and inexplicable hold someone has over them, singing "Tú me hiciste brujería" (You put a spell on me). This metaphorical use adds a layer of intrigue and passion, making it a memorable and enticing word to learn.
Kenia OS's "Soledad" is a super relatable song about being stuck in a moment after a breakup, where time just seems to drag on. She's literally asking, "Soledad, ¿qué te pasa que el día no cambia las horas?" [Solitude, what's wrong with you that the day doesn't change the hours?] It's like she thinks solitude has cast a spell on the clock!
She can't stop thinking about this person, even imagining them right there, and she desperately wants them back, saying, "Te quiero tener cerquita de mí para más nunca soltarnos" [I want to have you close to me so we never let go again]. The lyrics really hit home when she talks about still feeling their skin and those kisses that messed her up. She's counting down the days, wondering when they'll meet again, and she's not afraid to say, "papi, no seas malo, también valgo" [daddy, don't be mean, I'm worth something too]. It's a powerful and honest look at missing someone so much that even seconds feel like giants.
