The Fields of Love and Healing in 'TRIGAL' by Sandro
In 'TRIGAL,' Sandro uses the imagery of a wheat field (trigal) to convey deep emotions of love, healing, and possession. The trigal serves as a metaphor for a beloved person whose love and presence bring solace and renewal to the singer. The repeated invocation of 'Trigal, ay! Trigal' emphasizes the importance and reverence the singer holds for this person, likening their love to a nurturing and life-sustaining field of wheat.
The lyrics speak to the transformative power of love, as the singer asks for the 'trigal de tus amores' to calm old pains with the 'pan de tu trigal.' This suggests that the love of the beloved has the power to heal past wounds and provide sustenance, much like bread made from wheat. The imagery of 'trigo maduro' (ripe wheat) in the beloved's hair and the comparison to the sun's light further highlight the beloved's radiant and life-giving qualities.
Sandro also explores themes of possession and unity in love. By declaring himself the 'dueño de tu fruto' and the 'molino de tu amor,' the singer expresses a sense of ownership and deep connection to the beloved. The plea for the trigal to 'borra mi tiempo y esta herida' underscores the desire for love to erase past suffering and bring new life. The song beautifully intertwines natural imagery with emotional depth, creating a poignant and evocative portrayal of love's power to heal and transform.
