Ser Feliz

Ricky Martin's song 'Ser Feliz' is a heartfelt exploration of love and the pursuit of happiness. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a romantic journey that begins almost serendipitously, as the narrator finds their partner 'like in a dream.' The initial awkwardness and the struggle to find the right words are relatable moments that many have experienced when falling in love. The eyes of the beloved are described as speaking volumes, suggesting a deep, unspoken connection that transcends verbal communication.

As the relationship develops, the song delves into the gradual deepening of love. The lyrics 'Nos quisimos poco a poco' (We loved each other little by little) highlight the organic growth of their bond. This love is portrayed as something enduring and resilient, with 'mil promesas, mil deseos' (a thousand promises, a thousand wishes) that go beyond mere dreams. The narrator's willingness to 'put the world at your feet' underscores the depth of their commitment and the lengths they are willing to go to ensure their partner's happiness.

The chorus, with its repeated emphasis on 'ser feliz' (to be happy), encapsulates the core message of the song. It speaks to the universal desire to find joy and fulfillment in life, particularly through a loving relationship. The lines 'Ser feliz, ser feliz siempre junto a ti' (To be happy, to be happy always with you) and 'Ser feliz para descubrir una historia sin fin' (To be happy to discover a never-ending story) suggest that true happiness is found in shared experiences and the promise of a future together. The song's upbeat and passionate tone reflects the excitement and optimism of being 'locos por vivir' (crazy to live), celebrating life and love with fervor.
