Ojos Que No Ven

Maluma's 'Ojos Que No Ven' delves into the complexities of love and infidelity, wrapped in a catchy reggaeton beat. The song's title, which translates to 'Eyes That Do Not See,' sets the stage for a narrative where ignorance is bliss. Maluma, known for his provocative lyrics and charismatic persona, uses this track to explore the idea that what one doesn't see can't hurt them. The lyrics suggest a mutual understanding between partners to turn a blind eye to each other's indiscretions, thereby maintaining the facade of innocence and love.

The song opens with Maluma asserting that he is not to be judged for his actions, especially when they are not witnessed. This sets a tone of defiance and self-justification. The recurring line, 'Cierra los ojos, calla boca y tus oídos' (Close your eyes, shut your mouth, and your ears), reinforces the theme of willful ignorance. By choosing not to see or hear about each other's unfaithfulness, the couple can continue their relationship without the burden of guilt or confrontation. This notion is further emphasized with the line, 'Porque si tus ojos no lo ven, el corazón no siente' (Because if your eyes don't see it, the heart doesn't feel it).

Maluma also touches on the duality of his persona, being 'Juan' to his partner and 'Maluma' to others, highlighting the compartmentalization of his life. This duality is a metaphor for the hidden aspects of relationships and the masks people wear to navigate love and infidelity. The song also references Héctor Lavoe's famous line, 'Todo tiene su final, nada dura para siempre' (Everything has its end, nothing lasts forever), adding a layer of inevitability to the narrative. Despite the playful and seemingly carefree tone, there's an underlying acknowledgment that such a relationship is unsustainable in the long run.

'Ojos Que No Ven' is a reflection on the human tendency to avoid uncomfortable truths to preserve emotional stability. It captures the essence of modern relationships where boundaries are blurred, and the lines between right and wrong are often negotiated rather than defined. Maluma's smooth delivery and the infectious rhythm make the song both a danceable hit and a thought-provoking commentary on love and deception.
