El Valle

Derby Motoreta's Burrito Kachimba's song 'El Valle' is a poetic and evocative piece that delves into themes of love, truth, and transcendence. The lyrics open with a metaphorical reference to the passage of time, comparing a year to the warmth of a lover's embrace. This sets the tone for a journey through a metaphorical valley, symbolizing a quest for truth and deeper understanding, as seen in the line 'El valle de la verdad veo en tus labios' (The valley of truth I see in your lips).

The imagery of taking a hat and boarding a ship suggests embarking on an adventure or a significant life journey. The act of kissing feet and hands can be interpreted as a gesture of reverence and devotion, indicating a deep emotional connection. The lyrics then introduce a duality with the lines 'Carga la del norte entre los hombros / Y clava la del sur entre tus ojos' (Carry the north on your shoulders / And pierce the south between your eyes), which could symbolize the burdens and insights gained from different directions or experiences in life.

The mention of alcohol as a thought and the idea of being made of time hint at a state of introspection and existential reflection. The recurring theme of flying, 'Volar,' suggests a desire for liberation and transcendence, moving beyond physical sensations to a more spiritual or ethereal state. The repetition of 'Volar' emphasizes this longing for freedom and the soul's journey beyond the confines of the body. Overall, 'El Valle' is a rich tapestry of metaphors and imagery that invites listeners to reflect on their own journeys and the truths they seek.
