No Hay Ni Un Corazón Que Valga La Pena
Miguel Bosé
The Search for a Heart Worth Loving
Miguel Bosé's song "No Hay Ni Un Corazón Que Valga La Pena" delves into the complexities of love and the emotional scars that come with it. The lyrics paint a picture of a world where every heart is wounded, carrying the burdens of past battles. Bosé expresses a sense of disillusionment, lamenting that there isn't a single heart worth the effort, as all are marred by pain and suffering. This sentiment is encapsulated in the repeated lines, "No hay ni un corazón que valga la pena," emphasizing the pervasive nature of emotional wounds.
The song also explores the longing for a pure, unblemished love. Bosé yearns for an "amor inmenso y sin herida," a love that is immense and without wounds, one that doesn't come with a history of pain or complications. He desires a love that is straightforward, strong, and doesn't seek an escape, a love that doesn't cost him his life. This idealized vision of love contrasts sharply with the reality he describes, where every heart is burdened with problems and past traumas.
In the latter part of the song, Bosé reveals a personal longing to reconnect with a specific heart, one that he still finds worth the effort despite the pain. He wishes to fly to where this heart hides, to confess the reasons that break him, and to stop denying the value of this heart that still beats within him. This personal confession adds a layer of vulnerability to the song, highlighting the internal conflict between the desire for an ideal love and the reality of emotional scars.
