La Estrella
Nilda Fernandez Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

La Estrella
A La Estrella que me lleva
Le doy una lumbrera
Por si esta ciega

A la piedra que me hiere
La day un par de alitas
Pa que se vuele

A la mujer que me quiera
Le doy una lumbrera
Por si esta ciega

A la llave que me encierra
Le pongo una escalera
Por si esta presa

A la flecha que me hiere
Le doy un par de alitas
Pa que me lleve

A la mujer que me quiera
Le pongo una escalera
Por si esta presa

A la mujer que me quiera
Le doy un par de alitas
Pa que me lleve

A la tierra que me cubra




Le doy tres naranjitos
Y una tortuga.

Overall Meaning

In Nilda Fernandez's song "La Estrella," the singer shares his approach to dealing with those who hurt him, those who love him, and even the earth that will eventually cover him. He speaks to the star that guides him, offering it a light in case it is blind. He speaks to the stone that hurts him, offering it wings so it can fly away. He speaks to the woman who loves him, offering her a light in case she too is blind. He speaks to the key that locks him up, offering it a ladder so it too can escape. He speaks to the arrow that hurts him, offering it wings so it can carry him away. And finally, he speaks to the woman who loves him again, offering her a ladder so she can escape if she feels trapped.


In each of these verses, the singer takes something that causes him pain or discomfort and transforms it into something lighter or more positive. He offers light to the star that guides him, rather than blaming it for his troubles. He gives wings to the stone that hurts him, so it can no longer hold him down. And he offers solutions to those who love him, rather than relying on them to rescue him. By doing so, he takes control of his own life and emotions.


Overall, "La Estrella" is a song about resilience and self-reliance, and the power of transforming pain into growth. The imagery of light, wings, ladders, and oranges all contribute to this message of hope and transformation.
