Es Todo Lo Que Tengo, Es Todo Lo Que Hay

Lisandro Aristimuño, an Argentine musician known for his blend of folk, electronic, and indie music, presents a contemplative narrative in his song 'Es Todo Lo Que Tengo, Es Todo Lo Que Hay' (It's All I Have, It's All There Is). The lyrics convey a sense of simplicity and acceptance of life's offerings, both material and emotional. The repeated line 'Es todo lo que tengo y es todo lo que hay' suggests a resignation to the fact that what one has in the present moment is all there is, and there's a certain peace in that acceptance.

The song's imagery, such as 'Un saco azul, un vendaval' (A blue coat, a gale) and 'Un piano al sol, un celular' (A piano in the sun, a cellphone), paints a picture of ordinary objects that hold significance in the narrator's life. These items, alongside personal experiences like 'Besar tus pies en el sillón' (Kissing your feet on the couch), create a tapestry of life's simple moments that are cherished. The mention of a 'tobogán sin escalón' (slide without steps) could symbolize life's unpredictable journey, where one must slide through without a clear path to climb back up.

The song also touches on themes of love and loss, as seen in 'El desamor del funeral' (The lovelessness of the funeral), suggesting that even in moments of grief, one must carry on with what they have. The request 'Pedirle a Dios un poco más' (Asking God for a little more) reflects a human desire for something beyond the tangible, perhaps a longing for spiritual fulfillment or deeper meaning. Overall, Aristimuño's song is a meditation on the essence of being, encouraging listeners to find contentment in the simplicity of their existence.
