Dicen Que Soy Lyrics in English by La India
Hechicera means "sorceress" or "enchantress". It’s a powerful and magical word for a woman who can cast spells or has a bewitching charm.
In this classic salsa track, La India defiantly lists all the negative things people say about her, including calling her a hechicera. Instead of denying it, she embraces this label, turning it into a symbol of her irresistible power and suggesting her allure is as potent as a magic spell.
This song is all about what other people say about the singer. And they say a lot. La India lists all the wild accusations people make about her relationship with someone. They call her everything from a curse to a witch, saying she's "lo peor que te ha pasado" (the worst thing that's ever happened to you) and "una cobra disfrazada" (a cobra in disguise). The gossip is so over-the-top, it's almost funny. They even call her "el titanic de tu alma" (the titanic of your soul), which is a fantastic way to say she's a disaster!
But does she care? Not at all. After listing all these rumors, she says, "Y ahora aquí estoy yo / Por si tú quieres saberlo" (And now here I am / In case you want to know). She's presenting herself directly to her partner, ignoring the noise. By the end, she's completely defiant, singing "No me importa lo que hablen de mí" (I don't care what they talk about me). In fact, she invites it: "Que sigan hablando de mí / Porque eso me hace feliz" (Let them keep talking about me / Because that makes me happy). It's a powerful salsa track about owning your reputation, even a bad one, and letting the haters hate.
