Luna (español)

Alessandro Safina's "Luna (español)" is a song that weaves a tapestry of love, mystery, and the human condition under the watchful eye of the moon. The lyrics personify the moon ("Luna") as a silent confidante to lovers and a keeper of secrets. The song begins with a recognition of the countless songs and words that have been directed at the moon, a symbol of the countless human experiences and emotions that have been shared under its light.

The moon is depicted as a witness to lovers seeking refuge in its glow, suggesting a universal connection between human passion and the celestial body. The singer pleads with the moon to listen and guide him, as he feels lost amidst the complexities of love and existence. The song touches on the theme of love's dual nature; it can be both destructive, like a fire that consumes everything, and also the driving force that keeps the world turning. This duality reflects the human experience of love's intense joy and potential for heartbreak.

The latter part of the song delves into the hidden side of the moon and, by extension, the hidden sides of ourselves. We are described as 'angels of clay' that can be undone by life's storms, and 'children of the earth' who are illuminated by the moon's light yet still find ourselves doubting. The song closes with a reminder of the powerful and passionate loves that dominate our passions and influence the course of our lives, all under the silent gaze of the moon.
