Pentagrama

Alex Zurdo's 'Pentagrama' is a song that intertwines the themes of love, faith, and music into a poetic expression of devotion. The lyrics use musical terminology as metaphors to describe the artist's relationship with God and the journey of faith. The title 'Pentagrama,' which means 'staff' in Spanish, refers to the five lines on which musical notes are written, symbolizing the foundation upon which the artist's life and faith are composed.

The song begins with a declaration that God's love is like a song, with the artist's heart serving as the staff where God's interpretation is based on His love. The use of musical notes (Do, Re, Mi, Fa, Sol, La, Si) cleverly represents different aspects of life and the artist's willingness to let God lead, even when the response isn't affirmative ('Si' in Spanish means 'yes,' but it also represents the note 'B' in English). The 'acordes graves' (grave chords) likely symbolize the difficult times in life, yet the artist trusts that God knows the song of his life and will guide him through.

The latter part of the song emphasizes the artist's commitment to carrying his cross, a reference to Christian teachings about bearing one's burdens with faith. The mention of getting lost in 'solfeo' (sight-reading) could be a metaphor for the confusion and challenges faced in life. Despite the silence and uncertainty ('los silencios'), the artist finds harmony and purpose in God's love, which fills the void with light, peace, and truth. The song concludes with a direct expression of love for God, affirming that the divine love is like a song written in the artist's heart, from 'A to Z,' which could signify the entirety of his being.
