Mar
Nana Mendoza Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Una luz
Llevo un rato entre el humo y el sillón
Y una voz que da vueltas
Sé como el mar
Deja de ser la gota
Todo es igual
Reflejo en el mar
Espejo que me enamora
Es tan real
Es aquí es ahora
Sé como el mar
Fluye con la marea
Tranquilidad
Historias que se evaporan
Las corrientes vienen y van
La tormenta ya pasará
Desde el faro es tan claro comprender
Llevo el universo en mi, somos UNO
Sé como el mar
Deja de ser la gota
Todo es igual
Buscamos las mismas cosas
Reflejo en el mar
Espejo que me enamora
Es tan real
Es aquí es ahora
Sé como el mar
Fluye con la marea
Tranquilidad
Historias que se evaporan
Las corrientes vienen y van
La tormenta ya pasará
Es tan real
Sé como el mar
Deja de ser la gota
Todo es igual
Buscamos las mismas cosas
Reflejo en el mar
Espejo que me enamora
Es tan real
Es aquí es ahora
Sé como el mar
Fluye con la marea
Tranquilidad
Historias que se evaporan
Las corrientes vienen y van
La tormenta ya pasará
Sé como el mar
Deja de ser la gota
Todo es igual
Buscamos las mismas cosas
Reflejo en el mar
Espejo que me enamora
Es tan real
Es aquí es ahora
Sé como el mar
Fluye con la marea
Tranquilidad
Historias que se evaporan
Las corrientes vienen y van
La tormenta ya pasará
Es tan real
The song "Mar" by Nana Mendoza is a beautiful ode to the sea and its power to bring tranquility and perspective. The singer starts by describing her surroundings, sitting in a room with smoke and a voice that circles around her. But then she says "Sé como el mar" which means "I am like the sea," and she goes on to explain how she is like the sea, always changing, always searching for the same things, and how the sea's reflection and the way it flows with the tide enamor her. She emphasizes how everything is equal and that no matter how small a part of the sea you are, you are still a part of it and part of the universe, emphasizing unity.
Throughout the song, Nana Mendoza utilizes various sea imagery to convey her message. She compares life to the sea, where everything is in constant flux but comes together to form a beautiful whole. The sea also serves as a symbol of strength, tranquility, and the storms that come and go. The last line of the song, "Es tan real," which translates to "it is so real," reminds us that the sea is not just a physical entity but a powerful and everlasting force that holds beauty and perspective for those who seek it.
Overall, "Mar" is a breathtaking tribute to the sea's power and the ways in which it can bring clarity and peace to our lives. It reminds us that we are all a part of something greater and connected to that greater universe, and sometimes we need to take a step back and regain our senses through the rhythm of the water.
