Vendaval
Nicolás Ibarburu Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
El pensamiento no piensa bien
Cree que mira
Por una grieta alguien lo ve
Busca que busca
Un acertijo en la obscuridad
Sueño que sueñas
Sueña que el sueño te guiara
Del vendaval, del vendaval
El abismo se muestra
Y de la altura lo puedo ver
Paracaídas pide un deseo y tira del cordel
Canta que canta
Y tus cenizas renacerás
Sueño que sueñas
Sueña que el sueño te guiara
Una canción vendrá y te rescatara
Y una canción vendrá y te rescatara.
Puede ser que el mundo, no presintió
La herida que nos enseño
Y en los momentos descarrilo
La raíz que un día floreció
Piensa que piensa
Cree que un día
Por una grieta alguien lo ve
Busca que busca, un acertijo en la obscuridad
Sueño que sueñas, sueña que el sueño te guiará
Y una canción vendrá y te rescatara
Y una canción vendrá y te rescatara
Del vendaval.
The lyrics of Nicolás Ibarburu's song Vendaval convey the importance of introspection and the power of dreams to lead us through difficult times. The first stanza talks about how our thoughts can often lead us astray and distort our perceptions of reality. The metaphor of looking through a crack and thinking someone is watching symbolizes how we can imagine things that are not really there. The second stanza references the abyss, but encourages the listener to take a leap of faith using a parachute as a metaphorical representation of wishes and desires - pull the cord and take the plunge.
The third and final stanza talks about the healing power of music and dreams, that they can provide solace and act as a guiding light through dark moments. The line "Una canción vendrá y te rescatara" (A song will come and rescue you) reinforces this idea that music can help us face the difficulties in our lives. Overall, the song Vendaval is about embracing our thoughts and feelings, taking risks, and finding comfort in music and dreams.
