Oye Mi Canto (Listen to My Song) is Gloria Estefan’s vibrant invitation to speak up, love openly, and refuse to be silenced. Throughout the lyrics, she celebrates the right to express what is in the heart, urging listeners to find solutions together rather than saying goodbye. The song beats with optimism: even though time passes quickly, change can arrive “overnight,” and everyone has the power to help it happen as long as they actually listen.
Estefan’s message is simple yet powerful: leave jealousy and hate in the past, offer love without conditions, and use your voice to start healing the world around you. By repeating “Oye mi canto” she turns her music into a rallying call, reminding us that real freedom comes when we share our feelings, hear each other’s stories, and act with compassion. Turn it up, sing along, and join the movement she’s launching with every note.
