Song Meaning of “El Reencuentro” by Sonia Rivas
“El Reencuentro” by Sonia Rivas speaks to the beautiful thing that can blossom from reuniting with someone after a time apart. With a soft, heartfelt confidence, Sonia Rivas expresses the joy of finding the person you love and the peace that comes with reconnecting.
The song establishes that “Leave and come back again is the way they normally tell us to find true love.” In other words, the idea is that if something was meant to be, it will be, no matter how long it takes to make it happen. Sonia’s lyrics capture the emotion that comes with a reunion- “As if, at last, a piece has been found.” This is a reflection of the completion that can come with being reunited with a person, either romantically or through close relationship.
The lyrics continue to evolve into a story of two people who took time apart and when reunited discovered that time only deepened their feelings for each other- “Old memories will resurface as a quiet nostalgia/ A comined enthusiasm, as if time didn’t pass by” Sonia’s use of gentle imagery brings to life the emotion experienced by two old friends who discover that when reunited their connection is strong and it feels like no time has passed.
