Salvame
Lynda Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mientras barcos balleneros
Pintan de tristeza el mar
Las ciudades son desiertos
De concreto y de metal

Cada bosque tiene un precio
Y el amor se encuentra en extincion
En el nombre del progreso
Pervivimos en la polusion

Salvame salvame
Yo soy cada niño
El aire que respiras
Salvame salvame
Yo soy cada especie
Del arbol de la vida

Y agoniza el amazonas
Por el norte y hacia el sur
Chernoby es una sombra
Por todo el planeta azul

Cada bosque tiene un precio
Y el amor se encuentra en extincion
En el nombre del progreso
Pervivimos en la polusion

Salvame salvame
Yo soy cada niño
El aire que respiras
Salvame salvame




Yo soy cada especie
Del arbol de la vida

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Lynda's song Salvame urge listeners to consider the destructive impact of human actions on nature, and serve as a call for action to protect the environment. The opening lines paint a vivid picture of how whaling ships leave a trail of sadness and despair in the sea while cities are devoid of life due to concrete and metal. The mood quickly turns somber as the lyrics assert that every forest now has a price tag, and that love is disappearing from the world as a result of industrialization and progress. The consequences of our actions are highlighted by the declining state of the Amazon forest and the shadow of the Chernobyl disaster cast upon the entire planet.


Through the emotive repetition of "Salvame," which means "save me" in Spanish, the singer uses herself as a representation of every child and every species dependent on the environment to survive. The plea for salvation takes on a powerful message as the words convey the interconnectedness of life, the air we breathe, and the need to preserve every aspect of nature to ensure our own survival. The lyrics of Salvame are contemplative and carefully constructed to awaken a sense of responsibility in listeners towards the environment, making it a compelling and relevant song that continues to resonate with audiences around the world.
