Estimar-te en soledat
Xeic! Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
quan intento parlar-li de tu.
I em dóna cops a la panxa, reclamant venjança,
per aquells que no et deixen tornar.
Em visiten fantasmes que creia extingits
quan no rebo notícies del front.
Em conquista la por i s’apaga la flama
Em quedo mig adormida pensant en què faria
si tornessis a casa demà.
Cridant fort el meu nom amb un ram de mil flors
de tots el llocs per on has estat.
Però et veig indefens, sense bales al fusell,
envoltat per trinxeres de fum
que et fan perdre el camí en busca del destí
que tants anys portàvem construint.
Tota una vida per aprendre a estimar-te en soledat,
i reviure aquells moments que ens han donat felicitat.
Tota una vida per somiar que tornes viu del teu combat
defensant junts sempre la nostra llibertat.
Surto fora al carrer i em saluda la lluna.
Li pregunto que quan tornaràs.
Se li escapa un somriure i em diu que estàs lliure
emprenent el camí de retorn.
M’imagino el soroll de les bales corrent
intentant que no mos veiem més,
i que entremig del bosc t’amagues de la mort,
i et cobreixes l’esquena dels trets.
M’acaricio el meu ventre i em poso a pensar
en el moment en què et podré abraçar.
Em recorren les galtes gotes d’esperança
que aviat em podràs assecar.
No em puc treure del cap les paraules d’amor
que em vas dir el dia abans de marxar.
Creix amb força el desig que enmig d’aquella nit
van fer néixer amb tendresa els sentits.
The song "Estimar-te en soledat" by Xeic! expresses the longing and emotional turmoil of someone who is separated from their loved one due to war or conflict. The lyrics depict the singer's struggle to express their feelings for the person they love, as well as the fear and uncertainty that comes with not hearing any news from the battlefield. The song also delves into the singer's daydreams and fantasies of the loved one's return, imagining the joyous reunion and the strength of their love.
The opening lines convey the physical and emotional tension the singer feels when trying to speak about their loved one. They are met with violence and aggression from others who don't allow the loved one to come back. The songwriter also mentions the visitation of ghosts, symbolizing the haunting memories of war, and how fear extinguishes the flame that once guided their loved one's journey back home.
In their half-asleep state, the singer contemplates what they would do if their loved one returned the next day, imagining shouting their name and presenting them with a bouquet of flowers from all the places they've been. However, they also recognize the loved one's vulnerability, surrounded by smoke-filled trenches, losing their way to the destiny they had been building together.
