El Pescador
Glup! Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Trae tú risa y tú voz, tú árbol
Ven limpia mi vida muestrame
Un buen motivo para estar contento
Siempre que vuelvo a confiar
Me quemo
Cuando me sienta viejo
Cuando todos esten felices
Cuando mi cuerpo caiga
Y nadie lo levante
¿Donde estarás tú?
Vez todo lo que hagas por mi
No sirve de nada cambiare
Glup!'s song "El Pescador" is a heartfelt ballad that speaks to themes of loneliness, loss, and searching for meaning in life. The opening lyrics read, "Ven toma mi mano y mi fé / Trae tú risa y tú voz, tú árbol / Ven limpia mi vida muestrame / Un buen motivo para estar contento" ("Come, take my hand and my faith / Bring your laughter, your voice, your tree / Come, clean my life and show me / A good reason to be content").
The singer is reaching out for someone to come into their life and help them find happiness and fulfillment. They are searching for a companion who can bring joy and light into their world. The mention of the tree in the second line may symbolize a deeper connection to nature and the natural world. The singer may be seeking a deeper spiritual fulfillment and connection to the universe.
The second verse explores the singer's fears and anxieties about the future. They ask, "¿Donde estarás tú?" ("Where will you be?") when they are feeling alone, old, and abandoned. They are questioning whether there is anyone who will be there to pick them up when they fall. This verse speaks to the universal fear of being alone and vulnerable, and the search for someone who will be there to provide support and comfort.
Overall, "El Pescador" is a poignant and introspective song that speaks to the human search for love, connection, and a sense of purpose in life.
