The Supernatural Essence of Love in 'Algo Sobrenatural'
In 'Algo Sobrenatural' by Los Nocheros, the lyrics delve into the profound and almost mystical nature of love. The song's narrator expresses a sense of self-sacrifice and devotion, as seen in the line 'Apagué mi propia luz, solo por amarte a full,' which translates to 'I turned off my own light, just to love you fully.' This metaphor suggests that the narrator has given up a part of themselves to fully immerse in the love they feel for their partner. The use of 'formula espacial para volar' (spatial formula to fly) and 'formula gentil para soñar' (gentle formula to dream) indicates that the partner's way of loving and dreaming is something the narrator finds incomprehensible yet deeply enchanting.
The song continues to explore the enigmatic qualities of the partner, describing them as having 'más de angel que de propia voluntad' (more of an angel than of their own will). This line suggests that the partner possesses an ethereal, almost otherworldly quality that transcends human understanding. The narrator is captivated and bewildered by their partner's dreams, past, and unique way of growing and loving, as highlighted in the lines 'Aturdido por saber de tus sueños y de tu ayer' (Dazed by knowing your dreams and your past) and 'Tu formula cabal para crecer' (Your perfect formula to grow).
The recurring phrase 'Mi dulce amor, eres algo sobrenatural' (My sweet love, you are something supernatural) encapsulates the essence of the song. It portrays the partner as a being beyond the ordinary, whose love and presence are extraordinary and almost magical. The narrator's inability to 'descifrar' (decipher), 'calcular' (calculate), and 'traducir' (translate) their partner's ways underscores the mysterious and awe-inspiring nature of their love. This song beautifully captures the feeling of being in awe of a partner who seems to possess an otherworldly charm and grace, making their love feel truly supernatural.
