Mar
Miguel Inzunza Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mar derrumba todos mis castillos de arena
Mar arrastra todas mis quimeras
Mar amarra cuentos a la cola del viento
Maravilla el tiempo en que la espero
Mar amartillo mi sufrimiento
Mar llevo mi epsuma a un mar abierto
Mar cambió mi curso y me compró unos zapatos
para no soñar jamas descalzo

Mar yo te confieso que a pesar de la luna
nunca había llorado una ternura
Mar abrió la llave de mis ojos
Mar posó la puerta en mi cerrojo
Amar a Mar,
es una llovizna diaria de patadas
Amar a Mar,
la noticia que ocupó toda la plana
Amar a Mar,
otra célula que explota de alegría
Amar a Mar,
una vida que hace meses no vivía
Cómo evitar Amar a Mar
Amar a fuera,
Amar adentro

Cómo evitar, Amar a Mar
Amar a fuera, Amar adentro

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Mar" by Miguel Inzunza speak about the power of the sea and how it can change a person's life. The ocean represents a force that destroys and rebuilds, but also brings a sense of wonder and beauty. In the first stanza, Inzunza says that the sea "knocks down all of his sand castles" and "drags away all his dreams".

However, in the second stanza, Inzunza also speaks of the positive side of the sea, saying that it "ties stories to the tail of the wind" and "wonders about the time he waits for it". The sea also represents a sense of freedom and possibility, as Inzunza mentions that it "takes his suffering away" and leads him to a new path.

In the chorus, Inzunza talks about the overwhelming feeling of love and admiration he has for the sea, describing it as a "daily drizzle of kicks" and "a news story that took up the entire page". He also suggests that his love for the sea has opened new doors for him, bringing him joy and a renewed sense of life. The song ends with Inzunza asking how one can avoid loving the sea, saying that it is something that exists both inside and outside of us.
