Ama, ama, ama y ensancha el alma

The song 'Ama, ama, ama y ensancha el alma' by Extremoduro is a powerful call to love and a critique of societal norms. The Spanish rock band, known for their poetic lyrics and social commentary, uses this song to encourage listeners to break free from societal constraints and to embrace a more loving and generous way of life.

The opening lines express a desire for the singer's voice to be so powerful that it could shake mountains and awaken the 'socially-dormant minds' to the words of love he's trying to spread. This metaphor suggests a yearning for change and the power of love to move people both literally and figuratively. The song criticizes the values of hate and greed that society often imparts and instead promotes a message of brotherhood and sharing of emotions, such as love, tears, and smiles.

The repeated verses about leaving the 'tarred social path' because it traps us, suggest that societal expectations and materialism are like tar that hinders our natural progress and freedom. The song advocates for a life lived authentically, in harmony with nature, and with a focus on sharing love. The refrain 'Ama, ama, ama y ensancha el alma' which translates to 'Love, love, love and expand the soul' encapsulates the song's message: love is the path to not only personal but also collective growth and enlightenment.
