Con Olor A Hierba

K-Paz De La Sierra's song "Con Olor A Hierba" is a poetic and passionate ode to love, intimacy, and the natural world. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of two lovers entwined in an embrace, lying on the grass, and becoming one with nature. The repeated plea, "No te salgas de mis brazos" (Don't leave my arms), underscores the desire for closeness and the fear of separation. The imagery of ivy and chains suggests a bond that is both nurturing and unbreakable, emphasizing the depth of their connection.

As the song progresses, the setting sun and the approaching night add a layer of urgency and poignancy to their union. The mention of stars shining in the lover's eyes and the coldness of the night creeping in creates a contrast between the warmth of their embrace and the chill of the outside world. This juxtaposition highlights the fleeting nature of their moment together, making it all the more precious.

The final verses of the song evoke a sense of unity with the earth, as the lovers wish to blend with the field and the soil, like a spike and a tree, or a branch and a dry leaf. This metaphorical merging with nature suggests a desire for timelessness and permanence, as if their love could transcend the boundaries of time and space. The song's title, "Con Olor A Hierba" (With the Scent of Grass), encapsulates this longing for a pure, unspoiled connection, both with each other and with the natural world around them.
