Madre Terra

Globus' song 'Madre Terra' is a poetic homage to the Earth, personified as an ancient goddess and mother figure. The lyrics evoke a sense of reverence and awe for Gaia, the Earth, highlighting her dual nature of creation and destruction. The opening lines, 'Antica dea / Madre che crea,' set the tone by acknowledging the Earth as an ancient deity who gives life. This duality is further explored through phrases like 'Caos e armonia' and 'Verde alchimia,' suggesting that the Earth embodies both chaos and harmony, a green alchemy that sustains life through a delicate balance.

The song delves into the elements that make up the Earth, such as 'Sabbia e marea' (sand and tide) and 'Fuoco e follia' (fire and madness), painting a vivid picture of the natural world's beauty and unpredictability. The line 'Fempo che fu / Che non è più' reflects on the passage of time and the transient nature of existence. This theme is further emphasized in 'Terra poesia / Lenta odissea,' portraying the Earth as a poetic, slow odyssey filled with both darkness and light, encapsulated in 'Buia luminosità persa nell'immensità.'

The chorus brings a sense of hope and continuity, with the Earth described as having a 'heart of fire' that will warm humanity. The lines 'Madre infinita che doni la vita / Che prendi e che dai non morirai' affirm the Earth's eternal nature, capable of giving and taking life but never truly dying. The song concludes with a promise of eternal connection, 'Ritornerò / Da te tornerò,' suggesting a cyclical return to the Earth, symbolizing an everlasting bond. The final lines, 'Respirerò dell'eternità / Con te per sempre io vivrò,' encapsulate the idea of living eternally with the Earth, breathing in its timeless essence.
