amada
Álvaro Henríquez Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Si subes a ver el suelo
Dime donde estan los fuegos
Que han costado nuestras lagrimas
Te ruego
Por si alguna vez te entrego
No reveles el secreto
Que teniamos entre los dos
Resucita el vivo pero el muerto no
Amada
Si subes bajas a ver el cielo
Dime donde van los fuegos
Que han quemado nuestras dos almas
Te dijo con señales lo que he sido
Y con palabras lo que pido hoy
Antes eras igual
Ahira soy mas igual que tu
Antes eras igual
Ahora soy mas igual que tu
The song "Amada" by Alvaro Henriquez is a heartfelt plea to a lover who has left or is contemplating leaving. The song is about the struggle of holding on to a relationship that has seen its share of ups and downs. The lyrics are filled with metaphors and symbolism, and the singer's voice reflects the pain and longing he feels.
The opening lines of the song, "Si subes a ver el suelo, dime donde estan los fuegos que han costado nuestras lagrimas," translates to "If you climb up to see the ground, tell me where are the fires that have cost us our tears." The singer is asking his lover to be honest with him and reveal the source of their pain. He is pleading with her not to reveal their intimate secrets if she ever chooses to leave him.
Throughout the song, the singer uses metaphors, such as "Brilla lo obscuro y lo blanco no" (Shine the dark but not the white) and "Resucita el vivo pero el muerto no" (Revive the living, but not the dead) to convey his feelings. The chorus, "Antes eras igual, ahora soy mas igual que tu" (Before we were equal, now I am more equal than you), illustrates the singer's sense of helplessness as he realizes that he has lost his power and standing in the relationship.
