Song Meaning (Interpretation) of “Consejos” by Los Tigres Del Norte
“Consejos” by Los Tigres Del Norte is a nostalgic song about the importance of using sage advice from one’s elders before making choices in life. The song speaks of the experience of growing up and finding a path of one’s own and reflects on the sometimes difficult situation of departing from one’s traditional culture and embracing something new. The narrator compares the guidance of his elders to a compass, always pointing him in the right direction, and ultimately reveals his gratitude for the advice of those before him. The song ends with a powerful admonition: “Take it with you, follow the advice of your elders.” This serves as both a reminder of the importance of respecting one’s roots, and a reminder to embrace new experiences and fresh perspectives.
