Mi Corazón
Marilina Ross Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Qué puedo hacer si dentro de un cajón
Quiero vivir...! me grita una canción?...
Esa que he descartado más de una vez
por infantil, por simple o por timidez...
Ay... No sé qué hacer, nunca a nadie le gustó...
y ella no se resigna como otras al cajón...
para colmo se llama: Mi corazón
que sigue adolescente pero yo
ya soy mayor
En cuanto puede se me vuelve a escapar
trepa a mi oreja y se pone a tararear...
me hace cosquillas desde el pelo hasta los pies
y no me deja en paz hasta que la toco otra vez...

Y aquí estoy cantando esta canción
quiero saber si alguien la puede querer
Mi corazón se entrega como una flor




y a quien la quiera se lo doy... yo se lo doy....
Chau... corazón... se acabó.... tu prisión.

Overall Meaning

The song "Mi Corazón" by Marilina Ross speaks to the inner turmoil of an artist who struggles to reconcile her desire to express herself and create art with the fear of being judged and rejected by others. The first verse describes the internal struggle of the artist, who hears a song calling out to her from a drawer, a song that she has discarded in the past due to self-doubt and insecurity. The artist struggles with the question of what to do when her heart is telling her to create but her fear of rejection is holding her back. The chorus then speaks to the artist's ultimate decision to share her art with the world, to take the risk of being rejected in order to give her heart and her creative spirit a chance to flourish.


The second verse then speaks to the physical impact that the artist's creativity has on her, as the song takes hold of her and she cannot resist the urge to sing and create. The artist describes the song as an unruly teenager, while she herself is a mature adult. Yet, despite this divide between her maturity and the youthful, unbridled creative spirit within her, the artist cannot resist the pull of the song. The final chorus then speaks to the act of giving oneself over to creativity and the risk of rejection that comes with it. The artist bids farewell to her heart, to the fear and insecurity that once held her back, and embraces the possibility of being loved for her creativity and her willingness to share herself with the world.


Overall, "Mi Corazón" is a powerful meditation on the struggles that artists face every day as they attempt to create and share their work with the world. Through Ross's lyrics, we see the inner turmoil, the fear of rejection, and the ultimate triumph of the creative spirit in the face of adversity.
