Luna
Adrián Berra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Una flor, que sabe flotar
Desde un hilo y rebota en el mar
Que raro que nadie lo ha querido cortar
A veces se asoma
Cuando vos dormís
Y mientras se esconde
Pasa por París
Que desaparece
La noche que llueve
Una vela colgada del cielo
Te miraron nuestros abuelos
Solitaria, como el mundo
Cuando todo pierde el rumbo
Luna de leche, miga de pan
Nuestros hijos te conocerán
The lyrics of Adrián Berra's song "Luna" talk about the moon and the way it appears and disappears mysteriously in the night sky. The imagery of "Caracol, de cristal" and "Una flor, que sabe flotar" compares the moon to a delicate, fragile, and yet resilient object that bounces around in the vastness of the sea. The line "Que raro que nadie lo ha querido cortar" alludes to the way humans tend to seek ownership and control over nature and its resources, but the moon seems to be beyond our reach, and we can only observe it from afar.
The lyrics also mention how the moon appears during our dreams and travels around the world, "pasando por París," and how it disappears when the rain falls. The line "Luna de leche, miga de pan" describes the moon as a nourishing object, like milk and bread, and how future generations will continue to admire and wonder about it. The line "Nuestros hijos te conocerán" suggests that the moon is a timeless object that unites us all, regardless of the generation we belong to.

caracol de cristal
una flor que sabe flotar
pende de un hilo y rebota en el mar
que raro que nadie lo ha querido cortar
aveces se asoma cuando vos dormis
y mientras se esconde allá por Paris
gotas de nubes
muñecos de nieve
que desaparecen las noches que llueve
Una vela colgada del cielo
que miraron nuestros abuelos
solitaria como el mundo
cuando todo pierde el rumbo
luna de leche, miga de pan
nuestros hijos te conocerán.
Luna que llora la historia
no habrá reyes
no habrá glorias
todo pasa, luna queda
as de uno, luna nueva
que la noche, no habrá sombra
sos el día de otra forma ayayai...
