El record que no has cridat
Mishima Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Que no tinc temps de mirar enrere,
Però de vegades el passat
Se′t fa present quan menys l'esperes
I et salta a la memòria,
I et salta a la memòria,
El record que no has cridat.
Amb un bon vi de la Rioja
O des del cotxe em desitja sort
Moments abans d'entrar a l'escola.
Ara una brisa et fa estremir,
I un raig de llum travessa els arbres,
L′hivern és llarg i el sol tan pàlid,
"Abriga′t més si has de sortir".
Fragment de la memòria
Fantasma d'un record,
El record que no has cridat.
The song "El record que no has cridat" by the band Mishima is a beautiful and thoughtful reflection on the passage of time and the power of memories. The lyrics open with the singer proclaiming that he has not been alone for a long time and that he has no time to look back because the past often presents itself when least expected. The memories that come back to him, the ones he has not called upon or shouted out, are the ones that haunt him the most.
The song then goes on to describe a few of these memories in detail. One memory is of the singer's father filling his cup with good Rioja wine and wishing him luck before going to school. Another memory is of feeling the cold winter breeze and seeing a ray of light cutting through the trees. The memories are fleeting and fragile, like ghosts, but they still have the power to evoke strong emotions.
The overall message of the song is that memories are a vital part of our lives, even the ones we may have forgotten or buried deep. They have the power to transport us back in time and evoke strong emotions, both positive and negative. The singer seems to be urging us to embrace these memories and cherish them, for they are part of what makes us who we are.

I un raig de llum travessa els arbres,

L′hivern és llarg i el sol tan pàlid,
Winter is long and the sun so pale,
"Abriga′t més si has de sortir".
"Wrap up more if you have to go out".
