Mother
Negrita Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Accecato dal peccato originale
Inseguirò le verità
Che la storia ha messo via
Che la storia non ci dà
Mother Mother, tutti i dubbi che ora ho
Dea perduta dentro ai dedali di Roma
Di equilibrio e simmetria
Di simbiosi spirituale
L'UNIVERSO E' ANCORA VERGINE PER ME
E' SCINTILLANTE, VIVO PER RINASCERE
SCENDA IL SOLE TRA GLI STOLTI E TRA CHI MENTE
E CHE SIA LA LUCE... DOVE E' BUIO SEMPRE!
Mother Mother, ritrovando mani e piedi
Sto sfiorando i tuoi intimi segreti
E cade un altro muro
Appoggiandomi al tuo ventre
Sono solo più sicuro
L'UNIVERSO E' ANCORA VERGINE PER ME
E' TRASPARENTE, VIVO PER RINASCERE
SCENDA IL SOLE TRA GLI STOLTI E TRA CHI MENTE
E CHE SIA LA LUCE... DOVE E' BUIO SEMPRE!
E rallentano i miei battiti
Madre Madre Madre abbracciami
Bevo al calice e brindo a Venere finchè...
Armonia... sarà!
L'UNIVERSO E' ANCORA VERGINE PER ME
SCINTILLANTE, VIVO PER RINASCERE
MADRE MADRE MADRE LA QUIETE E L'ENERGIA
LA SENTO DENTRO E' GIA' MIA...
TRASPARENTE E PRONTO PER RINASCERE
MADRE MADRE MADRE MADRE MADRE
The lyrics of Negrita's song "Mother" revolve around the theme of seeking truth, finding one's place in the world, and ultimately, finding comfort in the arms of one's mother. The singer, who feels blinded by the original sin, seeks answers to the mysteries of life, but is only able to find them in the secrets whispered by his mother. The song also celebrates the natural world, with the singer paying homage to the harmony and symmetry of the universe.
The song starts with the singer calling out to his mother, stating that he has been blinded by the original sin and seeking the truth that history has hidden away. He acknowledges that doubt haunts his every step, and that he feels lost, but hopes to find his way through the labyrinth of Rome. The singer recognizes his mother as the natural mother of balance and spiritual symbiosis, and seeks refuge in her embrace.
As the song progresses, the singer feels a growing sense of clarity and comfort in his mother's presence. He touches her secrets, feels safe and secure, and finds himself coming closer to the truth that he seeks. The singer laments that despite the beauty of the universe, many people are blinded by their foolishness and illusions. Nevertheless, he celebrates the light that emerges from the darkness, the beauty that emerges from chaos.
In the end, the singer finds harmony and strength in his mother, feeling his heartbeat slow down as he is enveloped in her embrace. He raises a toast to Venus and celebrates the transparency and vitality of the universe. The song ends with a repetition of the word "Mother," an acknowledgment of the bond between mother and child that transcends all other relationships.
