Need an instant mood-booster? Hit play on "Sonríele" and let DY, the vibrant artist from Puerto Rico, remind you that a simple smile can flip your whole day. Over a lively, tropical beat, he repeats the invitation: “Dame una sonrisa” — asking for a grin that sparks contagious joy. The chorus celebrates life, gratitude, and a faith-powered optimism, giving a shout-out to "el de arriba" for every new sunrise.
DY’s message is clear: no matter what storms you have faced, keep your head high, fuel up with fresh energy, and stay immune to negativity. Smiling becomes a shield, laughter the medicine, and thankfulness the fuel that keeps you moving forward "con el tanque lleno" (with a full tank). "Sonríele" is an anthem for brushing off bad vibes, embracing blessings, and choosing happiness again and again.
