Eternal Love and Cosmic Unity in 'Aeterna'

Simone Simons' song 'Aeterna' delves into profound themes of life, death, and the eternal nature of love. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the end of a life, symbolized by the 'final starlight' and 'final breath,' suggesting a transition rather than an end. This transition is marked by a release and a rebirth, as life is born anew when one lets go. The imagery of atoms splitting the skies and the echoing presence in another's eyes speaks to the idea of a continuous, interconnected existence that transcends physical boundaries.

The song also explores the concept of unity and the unseen forces that bind us together. The recurring phrase 'We are one' emphasizes a collective existence, riding on 'stardust' and shining in 'starlight.' This unity is not just among humans but extends to the universe itself, as indicated by the Latin phrases interspersed throughout the song. Phrases like 'Amor, ira aeterna' (eternal love and anger) and 'Universo coniuncti sunt' (we are connected to the universe) highlight the duality and interconnectedness of all things.

The use of Latin adds a timeless and mystical quality to the song, reinforcing its themes of eternity and cosmic connection. The lyrics 'Dark and light living deep within our hearts' and 'Ageless forces unite' further explore the duality of existence, suggesting that both light and dark, life and death, are integral parts of the universal experience. The song ultimately conveys a message of enduring love and unity, transcending the temporal confines of our fleeting years and connecting us to the infinite cosmos.
