Mi canción
Alfareros Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Soy de una tierra alegre y tropical
Llena de esperanza
Y un amor especial
Ella es la cuna de la evangelización
Somos gente bendita
Y locos con el Señor (bis)

Soy de una tierra de gente sencilla
Donde todos cantan
A ritmo de güira
Tengo una bandera de hermosos colores
Y todos los días
Llueven bendiciones

Donde mi vida cambio
Donde conocí a Dios
Donde esta mi corazón
Donde llueve la esperanza
Donde su gracia me alcanza
Donde nació mi canción, mi canción (bis)

Soy de una tierra alegre y tropical
Llena de esperanza
Y un amor especial
Ella es la cuna de la evangelización
Somos gente bendita
Y locos con el Señor

Soy de una tierra de gente sencilla
Donde todos cantan
A ritmo de güira
Tengo una bandera de hermosos colores
Y todos los días
Llueven bendiciones

Donde mi vida cambio
Donde conocí a Dios
Donde esta mi corazón...
Donde llueve la esperanza
Donde su gracia me alcanza
Donde nació mi canción, mi canción (bis)





Donde nació (3) mi canción
Donde nació (3) mi canción.

Overall Meaning

The song "Mi Canción" by Alfareros is an ode to the singer's homeland, an island in the Caribbean that is filled with joy, hope, and a special love. The singer describes it as the birthplace of their faith in God, where they first encountered Him and found a home for their heart. The island is celebrated as the cradle of evangelization, with its people being blessed and filled with the Holy Spirit, even though they are considered to be simple folk who love to dance and sing to the beat of the güira, a musical instrument that is a symbol of the island's culture. The singer is proud of their roots, as evidenced by the flag with its colorful hues that they carry with them every day.


The repetition of the lyrics "donde nació mi canción", which translates to "where my song was born", is significant in a number of ways.

Second, it reflects the idea that music is a powerful force that can transcend language, culture, and time. The singer's song is born from the experience of living in their homeland, but its message is universal and can be appreciated by anyone who listens to it. Finally, the repetition of the phrase creates a musical hook that makes the song more memorable and catchy, inviting the listener to join in the celebration of this tropical paradise.
