Raíz
Bomba Estéreo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
De adentro de la sierra
Y corro como el agua
Debajo de la tierra
Soy como un ave que vuela
Dentro de los aires
Soy hija de la tierra
Y corre por mis ojos
El sol en las mañanas
Mi mano la semilla
Mi corazón planeta
Soy como un ave que vuela
Dentro de los aires
Soy hija de la tierra
La voz es mi respuesta
Vengo de la montaña
De adentro de la sierra
Y corro como el agua
Debajo de la tierra
The above lyrics are from the song "Raíz" by Bomba Estéreo, which translates to "Root" in English. The song embodies the connection between people and the earth. In the first verse, the singer shares that they come from the mountains, deep within the sierra. The next line has a metaphorical feeling, where the singer explains that they move like water underground. The following line explains that the singer is like a bird that flies through the air, but isn't limited by it. The singer is a daughter of the earth and carries everything she wants within her soul.
The second verse starts with a description of the sun that is visible in the singer's eyes in the morning. They are hands from which seeds are sowed, and the heart is the center of the planet. The singer sees themselves as an eagle because they can soar through the air, always connected to the earth. The singer thinks of herself as the voice of the planet, and that the earth speaks through her.
The lyrics throughout the song describe the connection a person has with the earth. The singer feels connected and identifies themselves as a daughter of the earth, emphasizing that we cannot live apart or be successful if we don't take care of the environment.

Esta fue mi canción de viaje de mi costa Caribe por todo colombia, Ecuador y Perú y que nostalgia, muy afortunada de ser Colombiana ver cada paisaje, su gente, sus comidas, música ... Ha pesar de todo somos un país feliz, optimista con un gran corazón y el sentir de muchos.
