No Hay Mal Que Dure

Zoé's 'No Hay Mal Que Dure' is a song that delves into the themes of individuality, resilience, and the transient nature of life's troubles. The lyrics suggest a narrative of someone who is deeply sensitive, perhaps to a fault, as they 'feel too much' and can sense the rain 'before it falls.' This sensitivity is portrayed as a double-edged sword, making the individual unique but also vulnerable to the judgments of others.

The song encourages patience in the face of criticism, emphasizing that those who judge are all the same, implying a lack of depth or understanding. The imagery of 'wings in the wind' and finding nourishment in 'letters and photographs' suggests a person who finds solace in the arts and personal expression. The reference to classical music as a balm for sorrows further reinforces the theme of finding refuge in creativity and the arts.

The repeated line 'No hay mal que dure más de cien años' which translates to 'No evil lasts more than a hundred years,' is a saying that highlights the temporary nature of problems. It's a message of hope and endurance passed down from the singer's mother, suggesting that no matter how difficult a situation may seem, it will eventually pass. The song ends with a defiant, albeit humorous, exclamation that can be interpreted as a rejection of the hardships or perhaps a rebellious dismissal of the troubles faced.
