Qué Imagen?

In 'Qué Imagen?' by Rene Gonzalez, the lyrics delve into the profound and often incomprehensible nature of the divine. The song opens with a rhetorical question, challenging the listener to consider how one could possibly create an image of something so vast and immeasurable. The repeated lines, 'Qué imagen me vas a hacer / Si no sabes mis medidas,' emphasize the futility of trying to encapsulate the divine essence within human limitations. This sets the stage for a deeper exploration of the divine's omnipotence and omnipresence.

The song continues by contrasting human limitations with the boundless nature of the divine. Gonzalez uses metaphors like mountains and stones to illustrate the insurmountable gap between human understanding and divine reality. The lines 'Mis caminos no son tus caminos, / Tú no piensas como yo pienso,' highlight the fundamental differences in perspective and capability between humans and the divine. This is further reinforced by the declaration, 'Soy el todopoderoso / Hecho carne y sufrimiento,' which underscores the divine's omnipotence and its intimate connection to human suffering and existence.

As the song progresses, it becomes clear that the divine cannot be measured by any earthly standards. The repeated refrain, 'No me puedes medir,' serves as a powerful reminder of the divine's infinite nature. The lyrics also touch on the divine's role as the sustainer of life and the universe, with lines like 'Yo soy quien sostiene el mundo / Y sostiene tu vida.' The song concludes with a reaffirmation of the divine's eternal and all-encompassing presence, encapsulated in the lines, 'Soy el alfa y la omega, / Soy el que te da la vida.' Through its poetic and evocative lyrics, 'Qué Imagen?' invites listeners to reflect on the awe-inspiring and ungraspable nature of the divine.
