Devuélveme El Corazón Lyrics in English by Sebastián Yatra
Cobardía translates to 'cowardice'. It's a powerful and emotionally charged word that isn't used in everyday conversation as frequently as more common terms.
In the song, Sebastián Yatra reflects on a past relationship, singing, "Yo no sé si fue cobardía, la culpa fue mía" (I don't know if it was cowardice, the fault was mine). This word perfectly captures the regret and self-blame associated with a love lost, suggesting a failure to act or confront issues, making it a compelling reason to dive into the song's narrative.
This song by Colombian artist Sebastián Yatra is a massive heartbreak ballad. The main idea is right there in the title: he's begging his ex, "Devuélveme el corazón" (Give me back my heart). He feels so broken that he just wants to stop feeling anything at all. The breakup seems to have come out of nowhere, as he sings that the person left "sin hablar / Sin explicar" (without talking / without explaining), leaving him totally confused.
He spends the song trying to figure out what went wrong, wondering if it was his fault or theirs. He asks for everything back, not just his heart, but also "las promesas y la vida que perdí" (the promises and the life I lost). He even wants back a specific song he wrote for them, "La que con sueños escribí" (The one I wrote with dreams). In the end, he seems to accept that it's over, admitting that "nuestra luz se apagó" (our light went out) and that even though he tried, "No todo lo pudo el amor" (Love couldn't do everything).
