Una Vida Más Lyrics in English by No te va Gustar
Compasión translates directly to "compassion." While it might seem like a common word, its usage in this song is particularly poignant and offers a deeper emotional layer.
The lyrics state, "Ni sientas compasión" (Don't feel compassion). This line is powerful because the singer is facing a difficult situation but refuses pity, asserting resilience and a determination to live life fully despite challenges. It's a strong declaration of self-worth and defiance against feeling sorry for oneself.
No te va Gustar, from Uruguay, brings us "Una Vida Más" [One More Life], a song that feels like a powerful moment of reflection after a big change. The lyrics open with the singer waiting for a call, wondering if there's "Tanto misterio vas a traer?" [So much mystery are you going to bring?]. It's a feeling of being at a crossroads, where he has "todo o no tengo nada" [everything or I have nothing]. But instead of dwelling on it, he declares, "Sigue tu día, vuelvo a nacer" [Your day continues, I am born again].
This isn't a song about sadness or regret. He tells us, "No me mires con pesar, Ni sientas compasión" [Don't look at me with regret, Nor feel compassion]. Why? Because he has "una vida más y la suerte de poner el pecho a lo que reste por venir" [one more life and the luck to face whatever is left to come]. It's a defiant and hopeful message about resilience. Even though he admits, "Tengo la mente y el cuerpo en pausa, Esto no era parte del plan" [My mind and body are on pause, This wasn't part of the plan], he's ready to move forward. He knows "nadie se salva de la muerte" [no one is saved from death], but he wants us to know, "mientras tanto vas a saber que no me fui" [meanwhile you will know that I didn't leave]. It's a really inspiring take on facing life's unexpected turns with courage.
