The Beginning
Zaburon Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can't believe…
Life can impose you its path
And you are alone.
You can't fight its hostility.
I Hope you, my friend,
Can understand me.
I tell you all my emotions
Which hardly find a place
In my pain.
I saw
The little legs of a child
Making step of a giant.
The doubt
Destroy the dikes
And the reality invades
The dreams.
The weight Of a question
It's baleful,
But you have to understand that's just
A paddle of dust,
A paddle of dust.
I think we have to learn walking
And than we'll could run.
For every fall somebody pays.
Often the debtor
Doesn't ask it.
It's a mechanism which
Doesn't work,
This way takes away your life
And force you to the game.
Pay more attention to make not errors.
The nightmare comes,
It can't be dominated.
Don't to loose yourself
Long an unknown footpath,
Which hides a lot of obstructions,
It's a fight
By you and yourself,
There is neither joy nor serenity.
It's not important
If you can't understand,
You have to go ahead,
Don't try to watch behind.
Suffering!!
Don't wake up
The sleeping creature.
Time will come,
It will open your eyes,
A strange silence will scare you
And than you'll hope
That is the end,




When it was just
The beginning

Overall Meaning

The Beginning by Zaburon is a deeply introspective and emotional song that captures the universal experience of facing the challenges of life alone. The song starts by expressing disbelief over the fact that life can impose its path on us and that we often find ourselves alone and helpless against its hostility. The artist reaches out to his friend to share his emotions, which are struggling to find a place amid his pain. He describes the little legs of a child making giant steps, perhaps symbolizing the feeling of being overpowered by the world around us. The doubt destroys the dike of our hopes and dreams, and reality invades our consciousness.


The weight of the questions we face in life is baleful, but we have to understand that it is just a paddle of dust, a passing moment in the grand scheme of things. The song emphasizes the importance of learning to walk before we run, and how often one person's fall is shouldered by another. The mechanism of life doesn't always work the way we want it to, taking away our freedom and forcing us into the game. The song stresses the need to pay more attention to our decisions and avoid mistakes, as the nightmare that follows cannot be dominated.


As the song reaches its final moments, the artist implores us not to lose ourselves along the unknown footpath of life that's full of obstructions. It's a fight that we must wage with ourselves, and it's not always joyful or serene. It's not important if we don't always understand or if we can't look back; what's more important is to keep moving forward despite our suffering. The song ends on an ominous note, warning about the sleeping creature that we shouldn't wake up, and the fact that a strange silence will scare us. Despite our fears, we must keep moving forward, as that is just the beginning of our journey.
