The Gipsy Kings' song "Aven Aven" is a lively and upbeat track that celebrates love, family, and the beauty of life. The lyrics are in a mix of Spanish and Romani, the language of the Gypsy people. The song begins with the idea that they need to change their lives because they are a family. They express gratitude for having a wonderful wife, saying they are blessed by heaven. The singer emphasizes that he does not want to lose his partner and that he feels incomplete without her. The chorus repeats multiple times, with the word "aven" meaning "come" in Romani. The line "Ella vera que si vera es un gitano" translates to "She will see that if she sees, she is a gypsy." This line could be interpreted as a reminder that they are embracing their Gypsy heritage and identity. The following line, "Que es como juego de un fuego de verano," means "It's like a summer fire game." This imagery suggests that their love is passionate and intense, akin to the burning flames of a summer fire. The song continues with the reaffirmation that they need to change their lives because they are a family. The feel-good nature of the song is reinforced as they express their gratitude for their partner and highlight the beauty of life, particularly on a spring day. The repetition of the chorus and the lines "Aven, aven, Ella vera que si vera es un gitano" further emphasize the Gypsy identity and the idea that their love is like a fiery game, potentially referring to the passionate and spontaneous nature often associated with Gypsies. Overall, "Aven Aven" is a joyful celebration of love, family, and embracing one's heritage. The Gipsy Kings' signature flamenco-inspired sound adds to the energetic and festive vibe of the song.
