Díganle

The song 'Díganle' by Elias Ayaviri is a poignant expression of unrequited love and the pain of separation. The lyrics convey a deep sense of longing and heartache, as the protagonist implores others to tell the object of his affection that he is still thinking about her and that his love remains unchanged. The repeated plea to 'Díganle' (tell her) underscores the distance between the two, both emotionally and possibly physically, as he cannot communicate his feelings directly.

The song also touches on themes of regret and the harsh reality that love cannot be forced. The lines 'Somos dos mundos diferentes' (We are two different worlds) and 'Quisiste volar a otra galaxia de repente' (You wanted to fly to another galaxy suddenly) suggest an irreconcilable difference between the lovers' desires and paths in life. The protagonist acknowledges that he cannot make someone love him and reflects on the pain of being taken advantage of emotionally. The metaphor of an extinguished star that once made them shine together further illustrates the loss of a once bright and hopeful relationship.

Despite the sorrow, there is a glimmer of hope in the song. The protagonist expresses a willingness to risk everything if the other person truly loves him and hints at a readiness to welcome her back if she decides to return. The song ends with the protagonist revealing that he wrote this song for her, adding a personal and creative dimension to his expression of love and longing.
