Ben Liebrand Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Va subiendo la corriente
Con chinchorro y atarraya,
La canoa del bareque
Para llegar a la playa

Va subiendo la corriente
Con chinchorro y atarraya,
La canoa del bareque

Para llegar a la playa

(El pescador) habla con la luna,
(El pescador) habla con la playa,
(El pescador) no tiene fortuna,
Sólo su atarraya

(El pescador) habla con la luna,
(El pescador) habla con la playa,
(El pescador) no tiene fortuna,
Sólo su atarraya

Regresan los pescadores
Con su carga pa' vender,
Al puerto de sus amores
Donde tienen su querer
Va subiendo la corriente
Con chinchorro y atarraya,
La canoa del bareque
Para llegar a la playa
(El pescador) habla con la luna,
(El pescador) habla con la playa,
(El pescador) no tiene fortuna,
Sólo su atarraya

Regresan los pescadores
Con su carga pa' vender,
Al puerto de sus amores
Donde tienen su querer
Va subiendo la corriente
Con chinchorro y atarraya,
La canoa del bareque
Para llegar a la playa
(El pescador) habla con la luna,
(El pescador) habla con la playa,

(El pescador) no tiene fortuna,
Sólo su atarraya

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "La Mezcla" by Ben Liebrand / Sascha Liebrand describe the life of a fisherman who relies on his skills and hard work to make a living. The fisherman uses his fishnet and boat to navigate the currents and make his way to the beach to catch his fish. The lone fisherman speaks to the moon and the beach, as he knows that his only fortune is his fishing net, and all he has is his atarraya (a type of fishing net).

The song goes on to describe how the fisherman returns to his port with his fish to sell so that he can provide for his loved ones. The fisherman knows that his only hope for a better life is through his dedication and perseverance as a fisherman, and he speaks to the moon and the beach, as he relies on their guidance and presence to navigate his way back. The chorus repeats, reminding the listener of the fisherman's only company being his atarraya as he sets out to face the challenges that life presents him.
