Dharma Lyrics in English by Sebastian Yatra, Rosario, Jorge Celedon
Cabrón is a versatile Spanish slang term that can mean different things depending on the context and tone. While it can be an insult (meaning 'bastard' or 'asshole'), it's often used informally among friends to mean 'badass' or 'dude', especially when expressing admiration or surprise.
In "Dharma," Sebastian Yatra uses it in a self-deprecating yet confident way: "Yo, que soy cabrón, ¿Qué hice pa' merecerte?" (Me, who's a badass, what did I do to deserve you?). Here, it conveys a sense of being a bit of a rogue or a tough guy, but also someone who is perhaps unworthy of such a good person, making it an intriguing and memorable word choice.
Have you ever felt like you hit the jackpot in love, even when you thought you didn't deserve it? That's exactly what Sebastian Yatra, Rosario, and Jorge Celedón are singing about in "Dharma." It's a fun, upbeat song where the singers are basically saying, "I'm a bit of a scoundrel [Yo, que soy cabrón], what did I do to deserve you?" They joke that some people call them a thief, while others just say, "What luck! [Qué suerte]"
They both feel like they must have done something really good in a past life [en otra vida] to find each other now, especially when they had given up on love. The lyrics talk about how many people filled their bed, but no one filled the emptiness [ninguna el vacío] until this special person came along. It's about finding someone who sees through your defenses, teaches you to trust yourself, and makes even a dive bar feel like a fancy restaurant in Milan. It's a sweet and honest look at finding unexpected love and feeling incredibly grateful for it, no matter your past.
