Soy Tormina
Lidia Damunt Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Soy Tormina
Del Mar menor
No tengo padres
No tengo hermanos
Si algún día tuve otro nombre
Eso no lo se
No lo recuerdo
No lo apunté

Cuando yo nací
Las olas del mar
Ibas venían cantando con suavidad
Una melodia
Que no he podido olvidar

Soy Tormina
Soy Tormina
Soy Tormina




Soy Tormina
Del mar menor

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Lidia Damunt's song "Soy Tormina" depict a sense of uncertainty and detachment as she talks about her origins and past. She states that she is Tormina, a person from the minor sea, and that she does not have parents or siblings. She is not even sure about her real name, which suggests a lack of identity and roots. She does recall, however, the song of the sea that accompanied her birth, a melody that has remained in her memory and represents a connection to nature.


The repetition of the phrase "Soy Tormina" throughout the song reinforces the idea of a self-imposed isolation and uniqueness. It is almost as if Tormina is a self-chosen name, a way for the singer to differentiate herself from the rest of the world. The fact that there is no explanation for her lack of family or history can lead to multiple interpretations. One possibility is that Tormina is a metaphor for the artist's artistic temperament, and the sea serves as a symbol of creative inspiration. Alternatively, Tormina can represent anyone who feels disconnected from their past and has created a new persona for themselves.
