Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Porque se acaba un amor
Porque se apaga un estrella
Y se muere el ruiseñor
Porque termina la risa
Cuando eres mas feliz
Y el dolor siempre es mas grande
Toma que te toma
Toma corazón
Dame que dame
Dame tu calor
Hay que salvar a la vida
Hay que matar a la muerte
Hay que matar a la muerte
Que es la culpable de todo
Es la que seca la rosa
La que mata el ruiseñor
Hay que matar a la muerte
Que es la culpable de todo
La que destruye los sueños
Y nos arranca del amor
Porque madruga la fruta
Porque se enfría el volcán
Porque el río siempre nace
Para morir en la mar
Porque atora sentimientos
Porque muera la pasión
Porque queremos buscarnos
Para decirnos adiós
Toma que te toma
Toma corazón
Dame que dame
Dame tu calor
Hay que salvar a la vida
Hay que matar a la muerte
Hay que matar a la muerte
Que es la culpable de todo
Es la que seca la rosa
La que mata el ruiseñor
Hay que matar a la muerte
Que es la culpable de todo
La que destruye los sueños
Y nos arranca del amor
Toma que te toma
Dame que dame
Pin pan pum
Saca la pistola y dispara
Fuego, Fuego
Hay que matar a la muerte
Hay que matar a la muerte
Que es la culpable de todo
Es la que seca la rosa
La que mata el ruiseñor
Hay que matar a la muerte
Que es la culpable de todo
La que destruye los sueños
Y nos arranca del amor
The lyrics of "Hay Que Matar A La Muerte" by Azucar Moreno are a call to action against death and its many destructive effects. The song begins with a series of rhetorical questions about why things end and why pain is often greater than the desire to live. Death is personified as the culprit behind these negative outcomes, as it is responsible for withering roses, extinguishing stars, and killing nightingales. The song argues that death is also responsible for ending laughter, stifling emotions, and destroying dreams and relationships.
The chorus repeats the phrase "Hay que salvar a la vida" (we must save life) and "hay que matar a la muerte" (we must kill death), emphasizing the urgent need for action. The two women of Azucar Moreno sing in unison, their powerful voices giving the impression of a powerful force mobilizing the listener to action. The final verse again highlights the destructive capabilities of death, asking why fruits ripen only to die, why volcanoes cool, and why rivers ultimately flow into the sea. The song ends with the sound of gunshots, a symbolic gesture of defiance against the inevitability of death.
Overall, "Hay Que Matar A La Muerte" is a politically charged song, that calls for a revolutionary movement to fight against death, as it prevents us from achieving our desires, goals, and dreams. It is a protest against the destructive hold of death on life and seeks to motivate and inspire we listeners to build a better world where death would have less control over our lives.
