El Amor a las Hierbas Salvajes
Camila Moreno Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No se puede sostener
Una sombra se alza
La otra no se deja ver
Y no somos perfectos
Como quisiéramos
Y no estamos despiertos
Hoy es el día
Sucederá
El tiempo en mi espalda
Se sellará
Y no somos perfectos
Como quisiéramos
Y no estamos despiertos
Como debiéramos
In Camila Moreno's song "El Amor a las Hierbas Salvajes," the lyrics express a feeling of longing and anticipation. The opening line, "Esta espera es larga" (This wait is long), sets the tone for the song, conveying a sense of impatience and a desire for something to happen. The following lines, "No se puede sostener / Una sombra se alza / La otra no se deja ver" (It can't be sustained / One shadow rises / The other doesn't reveal itself), suggest a dualistic nature where one is eagerly awaiting something while another part remains hidden or uncertain.
The chorus emphasizes the imperfections and the state of sleepiness or unawareness, with the lyrics "Y no somos perfectos / Como quisiéramos / Y no estamos despiertos / Como debiéramos" (And we are not perfect / As we would like to be / And we are not awake / As we should be). This reflects a sense of self-awareness and recognition that things are not as they should be.
The second verse continues with a hopeful tone, with the lyrics "Hoy es el día / Sucederá / El tiempo en mi espalda / Se sellará" (Today is the day / It will happen / Time on my back / Will be sealed). This indicates that the wait may finally be coming to an end, and there is a sense of optimism for what is to come.
Overall, "El Amor a las Hierbas Salvajes" conveys a feeling of anticipation, imperfection, and a longing for something to happen. It captures the complexity of human emotions and the desire for a more awakened state of being.
