“Déjalo Ir” is a tender Regional Mexican ballad in which Yahritza Y Su Esencia steps into the role of a caring friend or hopeful new love. Hearing the pain in a girl’s voice, the singer gently urges her to drop the bottle, wipe the tears, and release the ghost of the man who hurt her. Rather than scolding, the lyrics offer reassurance: the heartache is understood, but clinging to it will only keep the wound open.
With warm, encouraging imagery—getting dressed up, escaping under the stars, and sharing a stolen kiss—the song promises a fresh start filled with kindness and possibility. It captures that pivotal moment when someone finally realizes they deserve better and is handed the courage to move on. While the melody carries the unmistakable soul of Mexico, the message of healing and new beginnings is universal, making “Déjalo Ir” an uplifting anthem for anyone ready to leave heartbreak behind.
Yahritza y Su Esencia is an American regional Mexican trio from Yakima Valley, Washington, blending traditional ranchera sounds with urban sierreño rhythms. Comprising siblings Yahritza Martínez (vocals, acoustic guitar), Armando "Mando" Martínez (twelve-string guitar), and Jairo Martínez (acoustic bass), the band burst onto the scene in 2022.
Their breakout hit "Soy el Único," written by Yahritza at just fourteen, climbed the Billboard Global 200 and earned them recognition at the 23rd Annual Latin Grammy Awards, with nominations for Best New Artist and Best Norteño Album. Yahritza y Su Esencia continues to captivate audiences with their heartfelt lyrics and fresh take on regional Mexican music.
