Hace frío ya

The song 'Hace frío ya' by Hilda Lizarazu, an Argentine singer known for her contributions to rock and pop music, is a poignant reflection on loneliness and the yearning for affection. The lyrics paint a picture of a world growing colder and darker as the sun sets, symbolizing the end of warmth and light in one's life. The recurring phrase 'hace frío ya' (it's already cold) emphasizes the chilling sense of isolation that envelops the narrator.

The metaphor of a tree stripped of its leaves represents a life devoid of love and care, standing bare and exposed to the harsh elements. This imagery is further reinforced by the comparison to a city made desolate by the cold wind, suggesting that without love, life becomes bleak and desolate. The narrator expresses a deep longing for a simple gesture of affection, a caricia (caress), which could reignite the warmth in their heart. The song conveys the idea that love is the essence of life, and without it, existence feels empty and meaningless.

The reference to a butterfly that no longer flies to the flower, burned by the fire of a love that has now extinguished, captures the loss of joy and vitality that once was. The absence of a smile that will not return signifies the deep impact of this emotional void. 'Hace frío ya' is a lament for lost love and the coldness that fills the space where warmth and companionship once resided, leaving the narrator to face a life that feels incomplete without the presence of their beloved.
