Javiera’s second album, after more than 4 years of production and mastering, was released in 2010 entitled just Mena. This work was also produced by Cristian Heyne, and took a more dancefloor-oriented taste compared to her first album, that despite of having songs of this type, it also had some mid-tempo and slow ballads. The album’s first single, “Hasta la verdad”, was listed as one of the Singles of the Week to pay attention to in the USA iTunes Music Store, and iTunes Mexico in December of this year considered Mena as the breakthrough album of the year.[1]
Perlas
Javiera Mena Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Y mis perlas se alinearon hoy
Y van a entrar las señales desde el cosmos
Van a estar aca
Y mis perlas se alinearon hoy
Quien es el que me dicta
Busco el color
Ya no se me dicta
Busco el color
Yo no voy a esperar el color
Las señales desde el cosmos van a estar aca
Y mis perlas se alinearon hoy
Las señales desde el cosmos van
Y mis perlas se alinearon hoy
In Javiera Mena's "Perlas," the lyrics explore the idea of following one's own path and embracing individuality rather than being dictated by external forces. The opening lines speak of the signals from the cosmos aligning with the singer's pearls, symbolically representing a sense of cosmic order and harmony. The idea of cosmic alignment suggests that there is a higher force at work, influencing the events and circumstances that surround us.
The second verse reveals the inner conflict of the singer, who is trying to discover their own path and identity. The question "Quien es el que me dicta" (Who is dictating me) suggests a sense of frustration with societal pressure to conform and follow the norm. The singer refuses to wait for someone else to decide their fate and instead chooses to "buscar el color" (look for their own color). This represents a desire to discover their unique identity and embrace their authentic self.
The final chorus reinforces the idea of cosmic alignment and emphasizes that the signals from the cosmos will be present and the pearls will be aligned. This can be interpreted as a message of hope that even when we are lost or struggling to find our way, the universe has a plan for us and will guide us towards fulfillment and happiness.

A esta canción le hace falta un vídeo, pero bien hecho con efectos especiales. Me imagino a la Javi viajando en una nave espacial y se ve el cosmos con sus estrellas

Esta epoca de la Javi "Esquemas Juveniles y Mena" esos estaba en otra galaxia compositivamente. A mi manera de ver su mejor época donde más brillo regularmente.
