Otra Vez
Mia Maestro Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
otra vez los ríos te llevan
otra vez tu sombra se apaga
una vez tu risa fue mía
una vez tu piel me dió vino
otra vez tu boca hace agriar
otra vez tu cara se espanta
y otra vez mis pechos se secan
otra vez la tierra te esconde
otra vez tus ojos se agobian
y otra vez tu aliento se turbia.
The song "Otra Vez" by Mia Maestro is an emotional ballad that speaks about the pain of losing someone you love, but also the bittersweet memories that remain. The lyrics are full of powerful imagery, describing the feeling of being overwhelmed by sorrow and memories.
The first lines, "Otra vez tu mano se nubla, otra vez los ríos te llevan" (once again your hand clouds over, once again the rivers take you"), suggest the feeling of being lost and disconnected from reality. This is followed by the lines "otra vez tu sombra se apaga, una vez tu risa fue mía" (once again your shadow fades away, once your laughter was mine), expressing the sadness of losing the person and their presence, while also acknowledging the memories that remain.
Throughout the song, there is a sense of repetition and cycles - "una vez" (once) and "otra vez" (once again) are repeated several times, suggesting an ongoing struggle with grief and remembrance. The imagery used, such as "una vez tu piel me dió vino" (once your skin gave me wine) and "otra vez tu boca hace agriar" (once again your mouth makes me bitter), is both sensual and sorrowful, highlighting the complexity of emotions that come with loss.
Overall, "Otra Vez" is a powerful and poignant song that speaks to anyone who has experienced loss and the struggle to move forward.
