Comienzo Y Final de Una Verde Mañana

The song 'Comienzo Y Final de Una Verde Mañana' by Cuban singer-songwriter Pablo Milanés is a tender ode to love and intimacy. Milanés, known for his contributions to the Nueva Trova movement, often infuses his music with poetic lyrics that explore deep emotions and social issues. In this song, the lyrics are a gentle and passionate plea for closeness and shared moments with a loved one.

The opening lines set the tone for a romantic and sensual journey. The 'verde mañana' or 'green morning' symbolizes a fresh start, a new day filled with hope and the beauty of nature. The singer wants to awaken his beloved with a kiss, suggesting a desire to be the first thing his partner experiences upon waking. The reference to celebrating spring on the 'hermoso largo de tu cuerpo' (the beautiful length of your body) further emphasizes the natural and rejuvenating aspect of their love.

As the song progresses, the lyrics delve into a more profound connection, beyond the physical. Milanés speaks of exploring his partner's 'universe' without limits, resting on their chest, and experiencing a warmth that invigorates him. The mention of 'diez noviembres' could signify a long-lasting relationship that has endured and been purified over time. The song concludes with a wish to wake up with the joy of sharing dreams and desires, and as the green morning comes to an end, to reaffirm his love. The repetition of 'Volver a repetir que te quiero' (to repeat again that I love you) underscores the depth and enduring nature of this love.
