Sale el Sol by Shakira is a song about the power of resilience and hope in the face of adversity. The lyrics tell the story of a difficult period of time, where the singer felt like years had passed without seeing her beloved, and how they had made mistakes due to fear. However, the song ultimately conveys a message of optimism, as it reminds us that after the storm, the sun will always rise again. The chorus emphasizes this idea, as it speaks of how, when we least expect it, the sun will come out, and that no matter how much we add up, one plus one does not always equal two.

These weeks without seeing you

They seemed like years to me

I wanted to kiss you so much

That my lips hurt

Look what fear made us

Do stupid things

It left us deaf and blind

So many times

Chorus 1

And one day after the storm

When you least expect it, the sun comes out

By adding so much, you lose count

Because one and one are not always two

When you least expect it, the sun comes out

Verse 2

I cried for you to the extreme

Of what was possible

When I believed I was

Invincible

There's no evil that lasts a hundred years

Nor a body that endures it

And the best always waits

Chorus 2

And one day after the storm

When you least expect it, the sun comes out

By adding so much, you lose count

Because one and one are not always two

When you least expect it, the sun comes out

When you least expect it, the sun comes out

Chorus 3

And one day after the storm

When you least expect it, the sun comes out

By adding so much, you lose count

Because one and one are not always two

And one day after, and one day after

The sun comes out

Chorus 4

And one day after the storm

When you least expect it, the sun comes out

By adding so much, you lose count

Because one and one are not always two

When you least expect it, the sun comes out
