Todo En La Vida

Elia y Elizabeth's song 'Todo En La Vida' is a beautiful and poetic reflection on the natural rhythms and cycles of life. The lyrics emphasize the importance of patience and the inevitability of change. The opening lines, 'Las golondrinas buscando el sol se van / Y las campanas sus nidos guardaran,' use the imagery of swallows seeking the sun and bells returning to their nests to illustrate the natural order of things. This sets the tone for the central message of the song: 'Todo en la vida a su tiempo llegara,' which translates to 'Everything in life will come in its time.'

The song continues with a poignant observation of a world devoid of love, described as 'Tierra mojada y flores sin color,' or 'wet earth and colorless flowers.' This metaphor paints a picture of a bleak and lifeless existence, suggesting that love and patience are essential for bringing vibrancy and meaning to life. The repetition of the phrase 'Todo en la vida a su tiempo llegara' serves as a comforting reminder that even in times of hardship, better days are ahead if we remain patient and hopeful.

In the latter part of the song, practical wisdom is imparted through simple yet profound advice: 'Si quieres agua no bebas en el mar / Si quieres fruto primero hay que sembrar.' These lines translate to 'If you want water, don't drink from the sea / If you want fruit, first you must plant.' This reinforces the theme that everything worthwhile requires time and effort. The song's gentle melody and repetitive 'Aninaninana' refrain create a soothing and meditative atmosphere, allowing the listener to absorb its timeless message of patience and perseverance.
