You realize time passes and adds years

And the more you know, the more you will miss

Well, life without making decisions

That perhaps we only have to remember

Moments come to mind

That because they were first they were real

Remember the first feeling

What made you walk to where you are?

And you forget that you are not eternal

Everything has an end

We're running out of time

And you forget that life is not to be

always thinking about the past

Always planning the future

good things are happening

in front of you every second

And you forget, oh no

Or you don't want to realize, oh no no no

Let life (let life) surprise you

Don't be afraid of this world, otherwise I would have

Be afraid of what you could be

Because you know well that time does not return

Don't rush what's coming, it's coming well

And you forget that you are not eternal

Everything has an end

We're running out of time

And you forget that life is not to be

always thinking about the past

Always planning the future

good things are happening

in front of you every second

And you forget oh no

Or you don't want to realize oh no no no

Let life (let life) surprise you

let life surprise you

sorprenda — surprise

Sorprenda comes from the verb sorprender, meaning "to surprise." While the infinitive is common, the subjunctive form sorprenda is particularly engaging here.

In the song's title and chorus, "Deja que la vida te sorprenda" (Let life surprise you), it's a powerful call to action. It encourages listeners to embrace the unexpected and live in the present, making it a central and memorable theme of the song.

Have you ever felt like time is just flying by, and you're constantly looking back at the past or planning for the future? Sandoval's "Deja Que La Vida Te Sorprenda" [Let Life Surprise You] is a beautiful reminder to slow down and live in the present moment. The song talks about how we "sumas años" [add years] and miss out on the good things happening "Frente a ti cada segundo" [in front of you every second] because we're always thinking about what was or what will be.

It's a gentle nudge to remember that "no eres eterno" [you are not eternal] and "todo tiene un final" [everything has an end]. The lyrics really hit home when they say, "Se te olvida que la vida no es para estar Siempre pensando en el pasado Siempre planeando el futuro" [You forget that life is not for always thinking about the past, always planning the future]. So, let's take Sandoval's advice: "Deja que la vida te sorprenda" [Let life surprise you] and embrace what comes our way!
