El Espejo
MIKEL Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tú me enseñaste a ver
Roma en el espejo
Y a quererlo atravesar

Tú me ayudaste a ver
En mi oscuridad
Una noche de sol
Hay una fuente cerrada
Por todos los deseos
Que se negaba a conceder

Y hay otra fuente aquí
Donde te desee
Al empezar a anochecer

Pensaré que la ciudad eterna
Tiene los días contados
Que cualquier cosa es más pequeña
Que todo nuestro amor

No, no quiero promesas
Tu solo dame un día
Y yo pondré otro día más

Hoy, hoy quiero estar contigo
En búsqueda y captura
Y no tener que escapar

Pensaré que la ciudad eterna
Tiene los días contados




Que cualquier cosa es más pequeña
Que todo nuestro amor

Overall Meaning

The song "Roma en el espejo" by Mikel Erentxun is a beautiful love song that explores the power of love and the way it can transform our lives. The lyrics are about a person who has been deeply touched by someone who taught them to see Rome in the mirror, metaphorically showing them the beauty and magic of the world around them. The person who taught them this is their lover, who has helped them find light in their darkness, giving them hope and joy.


The song also talks about two different fountains, one that refuses to grant wishes and a second one where the singer wishes for their lover as twilight approaches. They talk about how, in a city as magnificent as Rome - the eternal city - everything can seem small before the magnitude of their love. This powerful, life-changing love is something that they don't want to let go of, something that has transformed their world, and they don't want to make promises or escape from it. They just want to be with their lover, to search and capture their love, and spend time together in a moment of fleeting eternity.


Overall, the song is a beautiful expression of the transformative power of love, how it can help us see the world with new eyes and find hope in darkness. It is a moving tribute to the power of love to make our lives richer, more meaningful, and more beautiful.

But you'll never find happiness
Unless
Ya find it in yourself 1st
Always searching for Love outside
And when you think it's it then your bubble burst
Feeling cursed
Or maybe worst
Spirit the nurse
The doctor
Even at the lowest point still got ya
Look
See
Still breathing
Still receiving
The Love of The Most High
Sigh
Sigh
Please
Just look inside
Yea at times a rollercoaster ride
But away with foolish pride
Let The Divine within be your guide
Love is infinite
And never leaves
Ourselves we spite
With wants n needs
Sewing seeds
Of destruction
Negativity & corruption
Here comes the eruption
Whirlwind
Spiritual volcano
Spewing up out to through
Everyting iNna this flow
Funny not funny
We already know
And still choose to blow
Malice n hate
Argument n debate
Haaahaaaaaa
It is hilarious
Cos all must be
And we
Learn from tasting da dust
Biting da dust
From the bottom we're thrust
Trust
Spirit always reminding
Breaking n grinding
To help us be finding
The 1ne true Love
That lives n remains in the essence of
Every1ne n everyting that does be
Find yourself n find the ultimate key
Bathing in the beauty
The tranquility
At peace with self brings peace with everybody
So what's it all about
I'll buy you gifts today n say
I Love you
Hmmm
I'll Love you more
For every moment you endure
My slips my slides
My ego n pride
Thank you
For accepting me for who what I am
What a beautyfilled feeling stretching forth ma hand
Let ma light shine
I am Divine
Bending perception of mind
To align
That which is to be aligned
Every1ne remember yes
Remember you're blessed
Partner no partner
It's on you to manifest
Your desires
Your dreams
Choose misery n worry or choose streams of infinite beams
Laugh
Smile
Give thanx
Appreciate
And I promise your Love will multiply n create
A beautyfilled feeling inside
A place of appreciation n contentment maybe even the perfect husband or bride

"If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make a change." I love this line.
