Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Si el sol no está ahí
La luna no se queja
Siempre que el sol atienda su amanecer
Y su atardecer, su amanecer, um
La luna vive sola
Y tiene que entender
También hace brillar a otra luna
Que despierta con él
Al amanecer y al atardecer
The lyrics to La Ley's song La luna are a poetic representation of the universal yin and yang concept. It represents how the moon is incomplete without the presence of the sun. It goes on to explain that although the moon does not complain, it relies on the sun to attend to its day and night cycles. The moon's solitary nature is portrayed in the second verse, but it is clear that it understands that it is not the only moon in the universe. The sun illuminates other moons, which also wake up and go to sleep with it, at sunrise and sunset.
The song's deep philosophical messages are conveyed through beautiful metaphors. The sun and the moon are entities that have fascinated humankind for centuries, and they have been used as symbols across cultures to represent various ideas. The moon is often used as a symbol of femininity, while the sun represents masculinity. The idea that the sun and moon complement each other to maintain the balance of the universe signify the interconnectedness of all things, giving it a universal appeal.
