Hogar
Martín Pescador Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Y salté sobre una cerca
Oigo al viento sobre el mar
Despidiendo a la tormenta
Me cansé de caminar
Ahora miraré las aguas
Polvo y césped que se abrazan
Este será mi hogar
Este será mi hogar
Mis fantasmas se asentarán
Muy cerca de mi ventana
Leña y fuego bailan lento
Como un carnaval
Bienvenido a mi hogar
Bienvenido a mi hogar
The lyrics in Martín Pescador's “Hogar” describe the moment when the singer decides to stop walking and jumps over a fence. He listens to the wind over the sea, saying goodbye to the storm. Tired of walking, he decides to look at the waters and embraces the nature that surrounds him. He speaks of the bond between dust and grass that should never be separated, indicating a strong connection to the earth.
The chorus of the song repeats that this will be his home, and he welcomes his ghosts who will settle close to his window. He speaks of wood and fire dancing slowly, like a carnival. The melancholic and introspective tone of the song conveys a sense of finally being at peace and finding a place where one belongs. The singer's eagerness to settle in and make this home may have come from the need for comfort and stillness after a long period of searching.
Overall, “Hogar” can be interpreted as a symbolic representation of finding a sense of belonging after a journey of self-discovery. This song speaks to the natural human desire for connection and roots.
