Vida
Los Huayra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
entre mis desvelos,
en mi piel respira,
me calma siempre…
Gira, viaja por mis sueños
sobre mis anhelos,
limpia mis heridas,
Un espacio lleno de color
pinta tu mirada en mi interior.
Vida,
tus ojos me dan vida, tu inmensa luz me guía,
me lleva a otro lugar, renace todo.
Sabes,
yo siempre voy a amarte, jamás voy a olvidarte,
tan solo por tu amor yo vivo y muero.
Agua, besa mis heridas,
en mi mente anida,
limpia mis palabras,
me eleva el alma.
Siempre que mi piel te encuentra,
es la primavera,
reverdece mi alma…
The lyrics to Los Huayra's song Vida are about the power of love and the way it illuminates the singer's life. The first stanza speaks of how the love of the person being addressed, referred to as Vida (which translates to "life" in English), shines like a star in the sky and breathes in the singer's skin, calming them. The second stanza continues this comparison of Vida to a celestial body, as they are said to travel through the singer's dreams and heal their wounds, always taking care of them. The third stanza uses imagery of color to describe the impact that Vida has on the singer's perspective, as their eyes "paint" a colorful picture inside of them.
More than simply expressing love, the lyrics also touch on themes of rebirth and healing. The fourth stanza speaks of water's ability to cleanse and elevate the soul, and the rest of the song revolves around the idea that the love of Vida has a similarly transformative effect on the singer. They are able to "reverdece," or regain their vitality and joy, thanks to this love.
Overall, Los Huayra's Vida is a moving declaration of the power of love to illuminate and heal our lives, and the importance of cherishing and nurturing our relationships with those we care about.
