(lym: maria isabel saavedra)
No son de lejos no son de aquÍNo existe alcurnia ni pedriguiSon el promedio de los de el medio quePaga impuestos y vive…felizNo son de campo ni de ciudadSu piel no es luz ni es oscuridad de losQue aman y creen en sueÑos de los de siempre…De la mitad.
De los que tienen el corazonGrande y dispuesto pa' hablar de amorY gozan cada paso que dan…cada sudor.
De los que quieren vivir en pazY no se ocupan del que diranDe los que luchan se la rebuscanQue somos todos…los de la mitad.
CoroSomos la voz de la genteQue abraza que sienteQue no de deja de soÑarSomos la sal de la vidaSanta mayoria los de la mitad, somos.
Hablan de amores y libertadLa plata es poca, pero siempre hay panEn la mesa, buenos amigos y una sonrisa pa'Los demasNo hay diferencias de sociedadLa cama es dura en cualquier lugarCaminos largos manos abiertasY buena tierra para sembrar.
CoroSomos la voz de la gente…
Saavedra's song Los De La Mitad is a poetic tribute to those who live ordinary and simple lives, those who are neither rich nor poor, but who work hard, pay taxes, and find joy in the little things in life. The song is an ode to the middle-class, the people who have big hearts and are not afraid to talk about love and who appreciate each step they take, every bit of sweat they put in. They are the ones who want to live in peace, who do not care about what others say, and who fight for what they believe in.
Saavedra's lyrics are a reminder that not everyone is born with a silver spoon in their mouth, but that there is beauty and dignity in living a simple life, working hard, and treating others with kindness and respect. The words are a call to celebrate the salt of the earth, the majority of people who work tirelessly to make a living and find happiness wherever they can.
In essence, the song is a celebration of the human spirit, an invitation to embrace what is essential in life and to cherish the bonds that unite us all as one.
