15 Dias

La Banda de Lechuga's song '15 Dias' offers a poignant and emotional narrative from the perspective of an unborn child. The lyrics are written as if the baby is speaking directly to the mother, expressing love and concern for her well-being. The song begins with the baby acknowledging its presence in the mother's womb for 15 days, observing her confusion and emotional turmoil. This sets the stage for a deeply empathetic and touching exploration of the mother's internal conflict about the pregnancy.

The baby, despite being so young, shows an incredible level of awareness and sensitivity. It tries to comfort the mother by making her laugh with little kicks and expressing a desire to see her happy. The baby’s repeated assurances that it doesn't need material things like toys or a crib, but only the mother's love, highlight the pure and unconditional nature of its affection. This sentiment is further emphasized when the baby reveals its gender, hoping to bring some clarity and perhaps joy to the mother.

The song's emotional core lies in the baby's plea for the mother's happiness and reassurance that it will not be a burden. This narrative can be seen as a metaphor for the universal desire for acceptance and love, transcending the specific context of pregnancy. The baby's voice serves as a powerful reminder of the innocence and unconditional love that children bring into the world, and the profound impact of a mother's emotional state on her child. '15 Dias' is a touching tribute to the bond between mother and child, even before birth, and a call for compassion and understanding in the face of difficult decisions.
