Maya
Celeste Carballo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Cuántas veces busqué un camino
hacia mí, y así más me alejé
toda mi vida me acompañó
lo que buscaba y lo ignoré.
Mirar la luna; no ver,
Buscar el cielo y dudar,
Cuántos días más,
Cuántas noches más.




Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Maya by Celeste Carballo speak about the journey of self-discovery and the struggles that come along the way. The singer talks about how they have been searching for a path towards themselves but have ended up further from their goal. Throughout their life, they had what they were looking for but chose to ignore it.


The lines “Mirar la luna; no ver, Buscar el cielo y dudar” (Looking at the moon, not seeing it, Searching for the sky and doubting) emphasize how the singer has been looking for something but not recognizing it even when it’s right in front of them. The repetition of “Cuántos días más, Cuántas noches más” (How many more days, how many more nights) adds to the feeling of frustration and the desire for answers.


Overall, the song touches on the universal human experience of seeking oneself and the challenges that come with it, such as doubt and not being able to fully recognize oneself.
