Guerra
Husar Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Wekufe
Carroña sangrienta, pestes purulentas
Tripas, entrañas, no sabe a nada
Mira a tu lado, ahí estan sus brazos
Su cuerpo retuerce tras diez puñaladas
Coágulos brillan sobre su espalda
Hoy te arrepientes, mañana disfrutas
De una batalla bien ganada
O'Higgins
Mutilados, degollados, todos caen a mi lado
Sangre por sangre, inocente o culpable
Al parecer hoy da igual
Rodríguez
¿Cuántas muertes? ¿Cuántas guerras? ¿Cuántas vidas?
¿Ese es el precio de la libertad?
Cada niño, cada viuda, cada día
Llora por causa de la libertad
Wekufe
Cerebro aplastado, alimento de dioses
¿Crimen sangriento, alimento de hombres?
Sudor, temor, perfuman mi mente
Tu sucia ambición enriquece el ambiente
Dime qué sientes enfrentando a la muerte
La sangre ajena se seca en tu frente
Hedor, putrefacción, tu sangre es mi pasión
Mutilados, degollados, saboreo tu ganado
Sangre por sangre, mierda tras mierda
Al parecer te da igual
Rodríguez
¿Cuántas muertes? ¿Cuántas guerras? ¿Cuántas vidas?
¿Es esté el precio de la libertad?
Cada niño, cada viuda, cada día
Llora por causa de la libertad
Wekufe
Sangre, muerte, guerra
Sangre, muerte, guerra
Rodríguez
¿Cuántas muertes? ¿Cuántas guerras? ¿Cuántas vidas?
¿Es esté el precio de la libertad?
Cada niño, cada viuda, cada día
Llora por causa de la libertad
Wekufe
Sangre, muerte, guerra
Sangre, muerte, guerra
O'Higgins
Mutilados, degollados, todos caen a mi lado
O'Higgins
Mutilados, degollados, todos caen a mi lado
O'Higgins
Mutilados, degollados, todos caen a mi lado
Sangre por sangre, inocente o culpable
Todo da igual
The song "Guerra" by Husar explores the theme of war and its devastating impact on humanity. It starts with the imagery of the god of war and destruction, Wekufe, relishing in the sight of the bloody aftermath of a battle. The lyrics paint a gruesome picture of the mutilated bodies and the desperation of those fighting for victory. However, the perspective shifts when Manuel Rodriguez questions the value of all the bloodshed and loss of life in the name of freedom. He highlights the children and widows left behind to mourn the loss of their loved ones.
The chorus repeats the words "sangre, muerte, guerra" (blood, death, war), emphasizing the cyclical nature of conflict. Even the victorious leaders, like O'Higgins, are not spared from the toll of war, as he is shown repeatedly witnessing the carnage and questioning the value of it all. The song ultimately leaves a poignant message about the true cost of war and how it affects everyone, regardless of which side you're on.
Overall, "Guerra" is a powerful commentary on the devastating effects of war. It highlights the physical toll of battle, the emotional toll on those left behind, and the ethical questions raised by the senseless loss of life. The lyrics are delivered with a sense of despair and urgency, effectively conveying the message that war is never worth the cost.
