"A native of simple and acoustic sounds, attached to the legacy of Cash and with shades of Iron & Wine or BRMC. He sometime "manages to be intimate, sometimes even autobiographical and project images that take us back to road trips with tangled hair by the wind, or guide us through our rooms in a sunny afternoon."

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
El canto enamorado de un pájaro
Desde lejos, desde lejos oigo
El canto enamorado de un pájaro
Ese pájaro es mi abuelo
Es mi abuelo que canta, canta enamorado
Ese pájaro es mi abuelo
Es mi abuelo que canta, canta enamorado
Canta, canta, canta
Canta, canta, canta
Canta, canta, canta
Canta, canta, canta
Canta, canta, canta
Canta, canta, canta
Canta, canta, canta
Canta, canta, canta
Águila, águila aguilé
Águila, águila
Águila aguilé
Águila, águila
The song "Abuelo" by Fernando Milagros is a beautiful tribute to the singer's grandfather. The opening lines describe the sound of a bird's love song from afar, setting a peaceful and introspective tone. As the song progresses, it becomes clear that the bird in question is actually the singer's own grandfather, singing a song of love. The repetition of the phrase "canta enamorado" emphasizes the love and affection that the singer feels for his grandfather.
The last lines of the song introduce the phrase "águila aguilé," which is a play on words with the name of the singer's grandfather (Águila). The repetition of this phrase feels like a chant or a mantra, emphasizing the spiritual connection between the singer and his grandfather. The use of bird imagery throughout the song evokes a sense of freedom and transcendence, suggesting that the singer's grandfather has passed on but is still present in spirit, singing his song of love from afar.
Overall, "Abuelo" is a touching and heartfelt tribute to a beloved family member. The use of bird imagery and repetition creates a meditative and spiritual atmosphere, while the catchy melody and simple lyrics make it easy to sing along.
