Silvana Estrada Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Piedad, piedad
Quiero ver la vida una vez más
Con ojos de niña que se asombra frente al mar

Pido por la luz de los milagros
En el café y en los diarios
Pido por saberme irremediablemente así
Piedad, piedad
Que me faltan días pa buscar
Toda la belleza que no supe salvar

Piedad, piedad
Que ese Dios del tiempo se me va
Marcando compases que yo no quiero bailar

Pido por la luz de los milagros
En el café y en los diarios
Pido por saberme irremediablemente así

Pido por saberme irremediablemente aquí




Pido por saberme irremediablemente así
Pido por saberme irremediablemente aquí

Overall Meaning

In Silvana Estrada's song "Aquí," the artist expresses a deep longing for a second chance at life and the ability to see things with the innocent wonder of a child. The repeated pleas for "piedad" or "mercy" indicate a sense of desperation and a desire to be granted the opportunity to experience life anew.


The lyrics evoke a yearning for miracles and a hope for a transformative experience. The mention of "en el café y en los diarios" (in the café and in the newspapers) suggests a longing for signs or guidance in everyday life. It demonstrates a desire to find beauty and meaning in the mundane, to see the extraordinary in the ordinary.


The artist also acknowledges a regret for not being able to appreciate and preserve the beauty that exists in the world. The line "Toda la belleza que no supe salvar" (All the beauty that I didn't know how to save) reflects a realization of missed opportunities and a sense of responsibility for not actively cherishing and protecting what is precious.


The mention of the "Dios del tiempo" (God of time) suggests a recognition of the passing of time and a feeling of being at its mercy. There is a desire to resist the rhythm and expectations imposed by this deity, symbolized by not wanting to dance to the "compases" (beats) it marks.


Ultimately, the artist asks for acceptance and understanding of their irrevocable nature. They yearn to come to terms with themselves and their existence, emphasizing the need to understand and accept oneself unconditionally. The repeated request to know themselves "irremediablemente aquí" (irrevocably here) and "irremediablemente así" (irrevocably like this) signifies the desire for self-awareness and self-acceptance in their current state.


In summary, the lyrics of "Aquí" by Silvana Estrada delve into themes of yearning for a fresh perspective on life, regret for not appreciating beauty, resistance to the expectations of time, and a quest for self-acceptance.
