Renacer means 'to be reborn' or 'to be born again'. It's a beautiful and evocative verb that suggests renewal, transformation, and a fresh start.
In "Hijo Del Mar," Noel Schajris sings, "Y en tu cuerpo renacer" (And in your body, to be reborn). This line expresses a profound sense of spiritual or emotional rebirth through the connection with another person, making it a powerful and memorable word in the context of the song's themes of destiny and deep connection.
A father sings to a child who arrived the way a tide does: "Iba y venĂa / Cruzando las olas" (it came and went / crossing the waves). Nobody saw it coming, "Nadie podĂa imaginar / Que eras tĂș quien iba a llegar" (nobody could imagine / that it was you who would arrive), and the title becomes a name he keeps repeating, "Hijo del mar" (son of the sea), with "Agua y sal" (water and salt) as the stuff the boy is made of.
The middle of the song turns from wonder to recognition. Looking at the child, he sees "Esa infinita parte del todo / Que forma parte de mi ser" (that infinite part of the whole / that forms part of my being), and calls him "el amanecer" (the dawn) and "Lo que siempre quise ser" (what I always wanted to be). What he offers back is small and physical: "Solo puedo agradecer" (I can only give thanks) and the wish to be "la espuma de tu mar" (the foam of your sea), the thin white edge on the water the child now owns. The closing lines name it plainly as "Regalo de vida" (gift of life) before the refrain fades out on "Del mar" (from the sea).
