Affresco
Cervello Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
ricoprono la vanità.
Marmi inerti fumano il tempo.
Sugge l'asina qual seme, che nascerà
germoglierà.
Karma si trasforma in vento... vento.
Luce divina
Il Nulla infinito la Pace
il Mɛλσϛ ψυχῇϛ.
The lyrics of Cervello's song "Affresco" are poetic and abstract, making it open to interpretation. The opening lines "Manti di fugaci essenze ricoprono la vanità" can be interpreted as fleeting experiences covering the vanity of existence. The line "Marmi inerti fumano il tempo" refers to the passing of time, which gradually erodes even the hardest of materials. The next line "Sugge l'asina qual seme, che nascerà germoglierà" can be understood as the idea that even insignificant actions can have far-reaching consequences.
The lines "Karma si trasforma in vento... vento" are particularly powerful, as they suggest that actions have consequences that are ultimately unpredictable and that can have a far-reaching impact. This is followed by the lines "Luce divina Scinsione totale del corpo dalla mente Il Nulla infinito la Pace il Mɛλσϛ ψυχῇϛ," which are somewhat esoteric in nature. "Luce divina" can be understood as divine light, while "Scinsione totale del corpo dalla mente" can be interpreted as the separation of the body and the mind. "Il Nulla infinito" means infinite nothingness, which can be interpreted as an absolute state of nothingness, while "la Pace il Mɛλσϛ ψυχῇϛ" can be understood as inner peace or harmony.
