SONG MEANING

Te Guardo is Silvana Estrada’s tender promise in musical form. With poetic images like a “laugh with wings” and “crystal abysses” for every wound, the Mexican singer turns everyday feelings into magic. She sings from the perspective of someone who is ready and waiting: saving bits of faith, morning light, pending kisses, and even her pillow for the moment the other person finally decides to see her love. Although her life feels short and she struggles to decode the sparkle in the other’s eyes, she still dares to hope that hearts can meet halfway.

The song balances vulnerability and quiet confidence. Estrada reveals multiple “faces,” a voice, and a skin that beg to be understood, yet she is not paralyzed by uncertainty. Instead, she carefully stores her affection so it stays pure until the right time arrives. Wrapped in warm pop arrangements and rootsy Latin textures, Te Guardo becomes a lullaby for anyone who has ever kept a flame alive just in case love decides to return.
