Las Enseñanzas Lyrics in English by Ulices Chaidez

Chingar is a versatile and very common slang term in Mexican Spanish, often considered vulgar, but in this context, it means "to work hard" or "to bust one's ass."

In the song, the lyric "Le tenemos que chingar" (We have to work hard) reflects the gritty determination and work ethic passed down from an older generation. It's a powerful and authentic expression of resilience and the need to strive for a better life, even when facing difficulties.

Ulices Chaidez's "Las Enseñanzas" is a heartfelt tribute to the wisdom passed down from an older, wiser man – likely a father or grandfather. It's all about the lessons that stick with you, even after that person is gone. The song emphasizes the importance of hard work and perseverance, remembering the sacrifices made, like the 'callos' [calluses] that show how much effort was put in.

This song is a powerful reminder to face life head-on, chase your dreams, and never give up. Chaidez sings, "Bríncale al toro, Enfrenta la vida, Cumples tus metas, Jamás te rindas" [Jump the bull, Face life, Achieve your goals, Never give up]. It also stresses humility and remembering your roots, as well as the importance of family and helping others. And when things get tough? "Y si tropiezas jamás te dobles, Y siempre aprende de los errores" [And if you stumble never bend, And always learn from mistakes]. It's a really inspiring message about living a strong, principled life.
