Ay ay ay

Daniela Romo's song 'Ay ay ay' captures the essence of a serendipitous encounter that evolves into a meaningful connection. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a woman who is initially feeling lonely and sad. She is sitting in a café, lost in her thoughts, when she notices a man smiling at her. This simple act of smiling sets off a chain of events that changes her day and possibly her life. The repetition of 'suspira' (sighs) and 'me mira' (he looks at me) emphasizes the mutual attraction and the unspoken connection between the two characters.

As the song progresses, the woman contemplates whether to seize this unexpected opportunity for companionship. The setting shifts to an elevator, where the man asks for a light, and they share a moment of intimacy. The lyrics 'Y yo tan sola y triste que me encuentro hoy' (And I, so lonely and sad today) highlight her internal struggle and the potential for change that this encounter represents. The elevator, a confined space, symbolizes a moment of decision and transition. When he invites her to his room, she hesitates but eventually decides to take a chance, indicating a shift from loneliness to a willingness to embrace new experiences.

The song concludes with the woman reflecting on the events that transpired. She finds herself no longer alone, having shared a meaningful connection with the man. The line 'Le dije que el amor es algo para dos' (I told him that love is something for two) encapsulates the theme of mutual affection and the importance of seizing opportunities for love and connection. The repetitive 'Ay, ay, ay' serves as a refrain that underscores the emotional highs and lows of this unexpected encounter, making the song both relatable and poignant.
