The Family Madrigal Lyrics From Encanto

The Family Madrigal
Stephanie Beatriz, Encanto – Cast, …
Drawers
Floors
Doors
Let’s go
This is our home
We’ve got every generation
So full of music
A rhythm of its own design
This is my family
A perfect constellation
So many stars and everybody gets to shine
Whoa
But let’s be clear, Abuela runs this show, whoa
She led us here so many years ago, whoa
And every year our family blessings grow
There’s just a lot you’ve simply got to know, so
Welcome to the Family Madrigal
The home of the Family Madrigal (we’re on our way)
Where all the people are fantastical and magical
I’m part of the Family Madrigal
Oh my gosh, it’s them
What are the gifts? (I can’t remember all the gifts!)
But I don’t know who is who
Alright, alright, relax
It is physically impossible to relax
Tell us everything, what are your powers?
Just tell us what everyone can do
And that’s why coffee’s for grown-ups
My tía Pepa
Her mood affects the weather
When she’s unhappy
Well, the temperature gets weird
My tío Bruno
We don’t talk about Bruno
They say he saw the future, one day he disappeared
Oh! And that’s my mom Julieta, here’s her deal, whoa
The truth is, she can heal you with a meal, whoa
Her recipes are remedies for real
If you’re impressed, imagine how I feel, Mom!
Welcome to the Family Madrigal
The home of the Family Madrigal
(Hey, coming through)
I know it sounds a bit fantastical and magical
But I’m part of the Family Madrigal
Two guys fell in love with Family Madrigal
And now they’re part of the Family Madrigal
So yeah, Tío Félix married Pepa
And my dad married Julieta
That’s how Abuela became an Abuela Madrigal
(Let’s go, let’s go!)
We swear to always
Help those around us
And earn the miracle
That somehow found us
The town keeps growing
The world keeps turning
But work and dedication will keep the miracle burning
And each new generation must keep the miracle burning
Wait, who’s a sister and who’s a cousin?
There’s so many people
How do you keep them all straight?
Okay, okay, okay, okay
So many kids in our house
So, let’s turn the sound up, you know why?
I think it’s time for a grandkid round up
(Grandkid round up)
Cousin Dolores can hear a pin drop
Camilo shapeshifts
Antonio gets his gift today
My older sisters
Isabela and Luisa
One strong, one graceful
Perfect in every way
Grows a flower, the town goes wild
(Isabela)
She’s a perfect golden child
(Luisa! Luisa! Luisa! Luisa!)
And Luisa’s super strong
The beauty and the brawn do no wrong
That’s life in the Family Madrigal (whoa)
Now you know the Family Madrigal (whoa)
Where all the people are fantastical and magical (whoa)
That’s who we are in the Family Madrigal, adiós!
Ooh (but what’s your gift?)
Ha
Well, I gotta go, the life of a Madrigal (whoa)
But now you all know the Family Madrigal (whoa)
I never meant this to get autobiographical (whoa)
So just to review the Family Madrigal
Let’s go
It starts with Abuela
And then Tía Pepa, she handles the weather (but what about Mirabel?)
My mom Julieta can make you feel better with just one arepa (but what about Mirabel?)
My dad Agustín, well
He’s accident-prone but he means well (but what about Mirabel?)
Hey, you said you wanna know what everyone does
I got sisters and cousins and (Mirabel)
My primo Camilo won’t stop until he makes you smile today (Mirabel)
My cousin Dolores can hear this whole chorus a mile away (Mirabel)
Look, it’s Mister Mariano, hey
You can marry my sister if you wanna but (Mirabel)
Between you and me, she’s kind of a prima donna
Yo, I’ve said too much and thank you but I really gotta go (Mirabel)
My family’s amazing (Mirabel)
And I’m in my family, so (Mirabel)
Well
Mirabel

More About Madrigal Lyrics From Encanto

The Madrigals were a famous family of musicians in Renaissance Italy. As the name suggests, they performed many madrigals together. These are songs combining multiple stanzas with different melodies. In addition, the word ‘madrigal’ comes from the Italian word ‘madri,’ which means mother. Therefore, the name aptly describes their musical performances as they portrayed a mother’s loving care.

The verses of a madrigal usually discuss topics such as love, death and failure. Some popular subjects include family, religion, nature and politics. Some madrigal topics explore human thoughts and emotions through satire. For example, a popular subject for the family’s songs was fatherhood. They also wrote many songs about God, religion and the devil. By combining thought-provoking lyrics with instruments created by the human mind, they could create exciting performances.

The instruments used by the Madrigals were unique and elaborate. Each member of the family knew how to play a musical instrument- including keyboards, flutes, recorders, shawms and trumpets. To add to this, several members also knew how to sing and act. Through these talents, they could create an extravagant show that captivated audiences for generations. Their shows featured elaborate sets and costuming that captured the imagination of their contemporaries.

Many people consider the Madrigals to be a model family. They were famous musicians but also philosophers and humanitarians. They loved learning and passed that along to their children in their songs and plays. They also supported education by sharing their knowledge through song and playing musical instruments created by human minds. In this way, they promoted literacy among their family members and audience members alike. Furthermore, when Lorenzo de’ Medici became a chancellor in 1513, he chose the Madrigals as his escort- illustrating his high opinion of their musical talents.

The lyrics of the Madrigals’ songs are full of insightful material on love, death and human emotions like envy or pride. Their shows captivated audiences with elaborate sets and music created by human minds- including musical instruments and voices raised to virtuosic heights by trained vocalists. Because of this unique blend of art, learning and entertainment, many people consider the Madrigals to be a model family.
