Estrellas Las Del Cielo

Saratoga's song 'Estrellas Las Del Cielo' is a poignant reflection on the suffering and chaos caused by war and hatred. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the devastation experienced by countless men, women, and children, whose lives are torn apart by conflict. The opening lines highlight the cruel twist of fate that subjects these individuals to unimaginable horrors, yet it is their desire for an end to this suffering that keeps their hope alive. This sentiment is encapsulated in the metaphor of a flame that continues to burn despite the surrounding darkness.

The song delves deeper into the roots of this suffering, attributing it to the 'tree of hatred' that spawns horrors and freezes the gazes of those affected. The lyrics express a sense of frustration and exhaustion with this 'macabre game,' questioning the motives behind such senseless violence. The recurring question of when this farce will end underscores the artist's bewilderment and despair at the cyclical nature of history, where past atrocities seem to repeat themselves endlessly.

In contrast to the grim reality depicted in the verses, the chorus offers a glimpse of hope and normalcy. It lists simple, yet profound, elements of life that bring comfort and joy: the stars in the sky, the green path, the genie of Aladdin, the body of a woman, the gas in beer, and the refuge found in friends. These images serve as a reminder of the beauty and peace that could be possible if wars were to end. The song concludes with a hopeful plea for an end to conflict, suggesting that a brighter future awaits if humanity can overcome its destructive tendencies.
