Review

Ricardo Arjona Señora de las cuatro décadas meaning in English and lyrics explained

Señora de las cuatro décadas“Ms. of the 4 decades” is a song by the Guatemalan singer Ricardo Arjona. The song was released in 1994 but the son is still among the most popular Latin song of all time. 

Señora de las cuatro décadas is a song about women over forty years old, and how most of them feel, thinking that their youth is over and their beauty died. Señora de las cuatro décadas – “Ms. of the 4 decades” refers to a lady who has lived more than forty years and longs for her body when she was fifteen. The lyrics try to make women over forty that their beauty isn’t over and that even in maturity they can be sexier because now they understand completely the art of loving. The song encourages women to add more life to their life instead of trying to reduce the number through different techniques like surgeries or clothes.

Señora de las cuatro décadas isn’t a difficult song and the lyrics arent hard to understand, yet, certain phrases in the lyrics could be a little tricky to understand as Ricardo Arjona tends to use poetic lyrics in his songs. This song contains a great message for women and it is recommended for those learning Spanish without a big knowledge.
