Sin Mirar Atrás
Jenny And The Mexicats Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
dos niños caminando de la mano van,
un tren lleno de luces al cristal.
Y los sonidos del carnaval
volando vienen, volando se van,
Díficil olvidar.
y tú te quedarás, y tu te quedarás.
Sabes solo hay que caminar
sin mirar atrás, sin mirar atrás.
Quizá pudiera disfrutar
las cosas de la vida que la vida da,
este tren paso y nunca volvera.
The lyrics of "Sin mirar atrás" by Jenny and the Mexicats depict two children holding hands and walking on the streets of the city as the evening falls. They see a train full of lights passing by, and the sounds of the carnival are in the air. The song talks about how some things in life can be difficult to forget, and how everything will eventually pass away. However, the message of the song is to keep walking forward in life without looking back.
The lyrics encourage us to live in the moment, enjoy what life has to offer, and avoid being held back by past experiences or regrets. Life is short and fleeting, and we should live it to the fullest without dwelling on the past. The train mentioned in the song is a metaphor for missed opportunities in life, and we should seize the moment when it comes our way.
Overall, "Sin mirar atrás" is a beautiful song that reminds us to live in the present and not let the past hold us back.
