Potra Salvaje (Hard Remix)

Isabel Aaiún's 'Potra Salvaje (Hard Remix)' is a powerful anthem of self-liberation and resilience. The song's lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person striving to break free from the constraints of societal expectations and personal burdens. The opening lines, 'Con la garganta llena de arena / Y con el odio, el orgullo y la pena,' suggest a struggle with internal and external pressures that hinder the feeling of true freedom. The metaphor of the hawk, a symbol of liberty and vision, underscores the desire to live unencumbered by negativity.

The recurring imagery of a 'potra salvaje'—a wild mare—serves as a central metaphor for the artist's untamed spirit. This wild mare, unrestrained by 'riendas ni herrajes' (reins or harnesses), symbolizes a rejection of control and a yearning for autonomy. The lyrics 'Quien odia muere y quien perdona avanza' highlight a philosophy of forgiveness and moving forward, suggesting that holding onto hatred only leads to self-destruction. Instead, the artist seeks to heal and embrace her true self, as indicated by the line 'Yo solo quiero curar cicatrices y ser como soy.'

The song also touches on themes of identity and self-expression. The mention of 'seis tatuajes / Debajo del traje por siete motivos' reveals a personal narrative marked by significant experiences and motivations. These tattoos, hidden beneath formal attire, symbolize the layers of identity that are often concealed from the world. The journey 'a lo desconocido' (to the unknown) reflects a fearless embrace of life's uncertainties, embodying the spirit of adventure and self-discovery. Through its evocative lyrics and dynamic rhythm, 'Potra Salvaje (Hard Remix)' celebrates the courage to live authentically and the strength found in embracing one's wild, untamed nature.
