Pies Hermosos
Mario Benedetti Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
nunca podrá ser fea
mansa suele subirle la belleza
por tobillos pantorrillas y muslos
demorarse en el pubis
que siempre ha estado más alla de todo canon
rodear el ombligo como a uno de esos timbres
que si se les presiona tocan Para Elisa
entreabrir los labios sin pronunciar saliva
y dejarse querer por los ojos espejo
La mujer que tiene los pies hermosos
sabe vagabundear por la tristeza
Mario Benedetti's song "Pies Hermosos" describes the beauty and sensuality of a woman with beautiful feet. According to Benedetti, a woman with beautiful feet can never be considered ugly because her beauty is enhanced by the grace with which she moves. She walks upright and confidently, accentuating her beauty with every step. Her beauty is emphasized by the curves of her ankles, calves, and thighs, and she is not shy to linger at the pubis, an area that is often overlooked by conventional beauty standards.
The song encourages women to embrace their sexuality and sensuality, to acknowledge the beauty in places that are not always celebrated, like the pubis and the nipples. The woman with beautiful feet is unapologetic about her body and allows herself to be loved and admired in full view of others. She knows the power of her beauty and uses it to navigate the difficult terrain of life, even in moments of sadness.
In essence, "Pies Hermosos" is a song that celebrates female empowerment and beauty that is not necessarily defined by society's standards. It is a call to women to embrace their natural beauty, sensuality, and sexuality without shame.
