Canción del tiempo y el espacio
Eduardo Darnauchans Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
entre la pompa de jabon que fia
el lirio de su mano a la extension.
El dulce niño pone el sentimiento
y el contento en su pompa de jabon.
Yo pongo el corazon - ¡Pongo el lamento! -
Entre la pompa de ilusion del dia,
el dulce niño pone el sentimiento
y el contento.
Yo pongo el corazon (bis 5)
The lyrics to Eduardo Darnauchan's song "Canción del tiempo y el espacio," or "Song of Time and Space" in English, are poetic and contemplative. The first stanza describes a sweet child who places their emotions into a bubble of soap and entrusts a lily to the vastness of existence. The second stanza contrasts this innocent image with the singer who places their heart and sorrows inside a bubble of illusion in the blue lie of reality. The repetition of "el dulce niño pone el sentimiento y el contento," or "the sweet child puts the feeling and the joy," emphasizes the purity of the child's emotions compared to the singer's sorrowful lamentations.
The contrast between the child's innocence and the singer's disillusionment highlights the themes of time and space in the lyrics. The child lives in the moment, placing their feelings into a temporary bubble, while the singer is overwhelmed by the vastness of the world and the illusion of reality. The lily and the bubble of soap represent fleeting beauty and impermanence, while the blue lie symbolizes the disillusionment and futility of the singer's existence. Overall, the song expresses the bittersweet complexity of human emotions and the challenge of finding meaning in the passage of time and the vastness of space.
