Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Let your power shine
Make the clock reverse
Bring back what once was mine
Heal what has been hurt
Change the Fates' design
Save what has been lost
What once was mine
The song "Healing Incantation" by A.Menken is a powerful and magical piece that is featured in the popular Disney movie "Tangled". In this part of the song, the singer is invoking the power of nature (in the form of a flower) to reverse time and bring back what has been lost.
The lyrics are filled with a deep sense of longing and desperation, as the singer is pleading with the flower to use its power to heal what has been hurt and bring back what was once theirs. The use of the word "gleam" and "shine" is interesting because it shows the powerful light that the flower emits and how it will bring change in the singer's life.
The lines "Change the Fates' design" are particularly intriguing because it suggests that there is a force that controls destiny and that the singer is attempting to alter it to have what they desire. The song is a beautiful and emotional portrayal of how we all wish to have the power to change our past mistakes and reclaim what was once ours.
