Serás Mi Luz

“Serás Mi Luz” by Bolonky is a poetic and heartfelt song that delves into the themes of love, longing, and the profound impact of a significant other. The lyrics are rich with metaphors and imagery, painting a vivid picture of a love that is both a source of light and a cause of solitude. The song opens with the lines “Seras la sed de cada atardecer,” which translates to “You will be the thirst of every sunset,” suggesting an insatiable longing that accompanies the end of each day. This sets the tone for a narrative of deep emotional connection and yearning.

The recurring motif of light is central to the song’s message. The lines “Seras mi luz mi eterna soledad” (You will be my light, my eternal solitude) juxtapose the illuminating presence of the loved one with a sense of enduring loneliness. This duality reflects the complexity of love, where the presence of the beloved brings both joy and a poignant sense of isolation. The imagery of painting and carving the loved one on the wall and heart signifies a permanent and indelible mark left by this secret love, one that the narrator vows never to speak of.

The song also touches on themes of redemption and transcendence. The lyrics “Te hare un mar por donde cruzaras hasta la redencion de mi perfecto amor” (I will make a sea for you to cross until the redemption of my perfect love) suggest a journey towards a higher state of love and understanding. The idea of the loved one being a sun that illuminates and drives the narrator to madness further emphasizes the transformative power of this relationship. The song concludes with a sense of hope and renewal, as the loved one’s touch is said to open the heavens and bring a new dawn.
