Voice of the Sea
Echoes of the Deep: A Saga of Nature's Wrath and Human Ties
Lyrics
Do a tí know who I am since antes
I've existed for a long time
Since the land was empty of roads
Since the beginning when there were no established paths
What is being free, mother and god
Questioning the concept of freedom, referencing maternal and divine influence
Tonight a tí are going to hear my song
Prepare to listen to my story tonight
Bigger than temples, greater than kings
My significance surpasses grand structures and powerful rulers
I am the longest tale, a tí will believe
I'm the most enduring narrative you'll encounter
Builder and ruiner, orchard of tears
I build and destroy, symbolizing a place of sorrow
But the fairest of all the living things
Yet, I possess unmatched beauty among all living things
I contain the whole sky under my skin
The vastness of the sky is within me
I'm stronger than the wind, a tí wait and see
I'm more powerful than the wind
Don't underestimate me, my colors are dreams
My essence is not to be underestimated, embodying colorful dreams
But thousands of dead souls lie deep in me
Despite my grandeur, I hold the remains of many departed souls
Fishermen and sailors have sung about me
Throughout history, fishermen and sailors have sung about me
I'm the muse of every un of them.
I'm the inspiration for every one of their songs
They all know that I deserve respect
They recognize and honor my importance
I'm lethal and a tí have no defense.
I'm both deadly and undefeatable
But men, always reckless, provoke my rage
Human recklessness often provokes my wrath
Coming for my kids to hunt and kill
Men come to my domain to hunt and harm my offspring
I don't have spears but waves a tí should fear
I lack weapons but possess powerful waves
And wait for my revenge, comes near
I warn of impending revenge if mistreated
You have nowhere to go, oh no, oh no
A warning that there will be no escape
You have done all what a tí wanted with me
Humans have exploited me as they pleased
If this continues it's going to be
Implying consequences if exploitation continues
Too late, will be
Warning of the impending consequences if actions persist
Too late, will be
Reiterating the impending consequences
When the only ones sailing my coasts were old sea wolves
In the past, only experienced sailors navigated my waters
and all stories about me were drunk of too much rum
Stories about me were once filled with exaggerated tales
Everything was better, It's breaking my heart
The current state of affairs deeply saddens me
As years go by humans go back
Over time, humans regress in their respect for me
You have nowhere to go, oh no, oh no
A repeated warning that there will be no escape
You have done all what a tí wanted with me
Continuing the theme of human exploitation of the sea
If this continues it's going to be
Forewarning of dire consequences if the mistreatment persists
Too late, will be
Reiterating the warning of impending consequences
Too late, will be
Emphasizing the impending consequences
You put borders in the land
Humans create boundaries on land, but I remain unconstrained
But I have no masters, I'm no tu graveyard
I do not belong to anyone, I'm not a burial ground
Why do a tí decide who lives or dies
Questioning why humans dictate life and death
Why no open arms, instead drifting men
Why reject those in need instead of welcoming them
You have nowhere to go
Repeated warning that there will be no escape
