Itsasoa

Kerobia's song 'Itsasoa' delves into the depths of human emotions and the passage of time, using the metaphor of the ocean to convey feelings of distance and longing. The opening lines, 'Itsasoa, hain urruti... Sentimenak horren hurbil...' (The ocean, so far away... Emotions so close...), set the stage for a poignant exploration of how physical distance can contrast sharply with the immediacy of emotional experiences. The ocean, vast and seemingly endless, symbolizes the separation between individuals, while the proximity of emotions highlights the enduring connections that persist despite physical absence.

The lyrics also touch on the theme of time and missed opportunities. The line 'Denbora da ez dugula hartzen kafetxorik' (Time is that we don't take a coffee) suggests a regret for not spending time together, a common human experience of realizing the importance of moments only after they have passed. This sentiment is further emphasized by the mention of not seeing the person in 'atzoko azken tabernetan' (yesterday's last bars), indicating a missed chance to reconnect in familiar, nostalgic places.

Additionally, the song reflects on memories and the importance of holding onto them. 'Zure lagunez oroitzen al zara gutxi bada ere?' (Do you remember your friends, even if just a little?) evokes a sense of longing for past relationships and the desire to keep those connections alive. The closing line, 'Besarkada bat eta jarrai bizirik' (A hug and keep living), offers a message of hope and resilience, encouraging the listener to cherish their memories and continue living despite the distances and missed opportunities.
