Remediar means 'to remedy' or 'to fix' a situation or problem. It's a word that implies a desire to change or improve something that is wrong or difficult.
In this song, Vicente Fernández sings, "Yo la quiero y no lo puedo remediar" (I love her and I can't fix it/remedy it). This powerful line expresses a deep sense of helplessness and unchangeable love, making remediar a poignant and memorable word in the context of heartbreak.
In “Cantando”, Vicente Fernández turns heartbreak into a serenade. The singer wanders alone, robbed of the sweetness of her kisses, and confesses that another mouth now owns the affection that once lit up his world. Torn between laughter and tears, fueled by fear and jealousy, he keeps doing what he knows best: singing. Every note reveals how deeply he still loves her, even while admitting he doesn’t know how to cry.
Yet the song is not only a lament. It is also a humble prayer. Vicente calls upon the Virgencita milagrosa to bring back what is rightfully his, begging forgiveness if loving so intensely is a sin. “Cantando” reminds listeners that for many in Mexico, music is both a confession and a lifeline. When words fail, the ranchera singer lifts his voice to the heavens, hoping that somewhere between the guitar strings and the sky his lost love will hear—and return.
