Inshallah is an Arabic phrase meaning "God willing" or "if God wills it". It's a unique and intriguing word to find in a Spanish song, reflecting a blend of cultures and influences.
In the context of the song, it appears as a moment of reflection and acceptance of fate, adding a spiritual or philosophical layer to the lyrics about the passage of time and life's uncertainties. Its inclusion makes it stand out as a memorable and thought-provoking word.
"Tiempo Pasa" is Judeline and DELLAFUENTE's meditation on how quickly time slips away and how little control we really have over it.
The song opens with the singer accepting that time will keep moving forward no matter how much she wishes she could return to being young. She looks back on a place from her past and the people she once kissed there, and admits she still misses the shine in someone's eyes.
Rather than fight it, she decides to let life carry her wherever it wants to go. She knows her skin, her voice and her way of singing will all change with time, and there's nothing she can do to stop it.
In the second verse she thanks someone close to her for their honest opinion, then admits she'll keep doing what she wants anyway. She also chooses to let go of a love that no longer belongs in her life.
The bridge slips into warmer, nostalgic images: water, planes overhead, palm trees, a kiss at a rooftop party. These are the small, vivid moments she wants to hold onto before they pass too.
By the end, the repeated refrain "tiempo pasa, pasa" (time passes, passes) becomes almost a chant, an acceptance that nothing stays the same and that the only real choice is to keep living inside it.
