Despierta
Iratxo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Retumba lo prohibido, faltan versos sobran ruidos, faltan puños que golpeen en el destino.
Si desmantelas la pasión tan solo queda el olvido, comiendo tierra y lleno de vacío.
Anunciando que volverá con el pelo suelto al viento, entre la escarcha del roció.
Y si preguntan se hace el silencio, que las bocas callan cuando tienen miedo a la libertad.
I si pregunten es fa el silenci, que les boques callen, quan tenan por a la llibertat.
Galdetzean, isiltasuna, ahoak askatasunari beldur direnean.
Destiñendo la bandera, con el amo bajo la soga, esperando a ver si se posa.
Descojonando el fracaso, que ya nadie le hace caso, y dio su brazo a torcer.
En cueros y con la piel llena de lametazos, que la vida hija de puta se hizo cargo.
Agarrando palmo a palmo, para dejarle volver, concebida pa ser una utopía.
Y si preguntan se hace el silencio, que las bocas callan cuando tienen miedo a la libertad.
I si pregunten es fa el silenci, que les boques callen, quan tenan por a la llibertat.
E se preguntan, faise o silencio, que as bocas calan cando teñem medo a leberdade.
Galdetzean, isiltasuna, ahoak askatasunari beldur direnean.
The song "Despierta" by Iratxo talks about the need to awaken from the slumber of conformity and to stand up for freedom and passion. The first stanza paints a picture of a desolate and abandoned landscape, with debris scattered all around and the only source of light and warmth being a bonfire. The forbidden, taboo topics are what resound the most in this environment, and the lack of meaningful expression and action only serves to deepen the sense of hopelessness.
The second stanza talks about the danger of losing passion and being left with only emptiness and forgetfulness. The singer vows to come back with her hair flowing freely in the wind, signifying a return to vitality and energy. However, when asked about this desire for freedom, silence reigns supreme, as people are too intimidated and afraid to speak up for themselves. The third stanza mentions the need to tear down old structures and symbols of power, and to welcome new and refreshing perspectives. The singer is once again faced with a sense of failure but vows to keep fighting for her utopian dream.
Overall, the song "Despierta" is a call to action for those who feel trapped and confined by society's norms and expectations. It urges listeners to stand up for themselves and embrace their passions, even if they may face ridicule or failure. By embodying the spirit of freedom and breaking away from the shackles of conformity, one can truly live a life worth living.
