Un Demonio Lyrics in English by Leonel Garcia
Naufragar means "to be shipwrecked" or "to sink". It's a dramatic and evocative verb that paints a vivid picture of being lost at sea.
In this song, Leonel Garcia uses naufragar metaphorically in the line "Tormentas para hacernos naufragar" (Storms to make us shipwreck). He's talking about the challenges and difficulties of life that threaten to overwhelm us, much like a ship caught in a violent storm. It's a powerful way to express resilience in the face of adversity.
Leonel Garcia's "Un Demonio" is all about facing the unknown with a defiant shrug! He starts by listing all the scary things that could happen: "Montañas imposibles de escalar" [impossible mountains to climb], "Tormentas para hacernos naufragar" [storms to make us shipwreck], even "Temblores para hacernos resbalar" [earthquakes to make us slip]. It's a whole lot of potential trouble, right?
But then comes the awesome part! He basically says, "¡Qué importa! Esta vida es corta" [What does it matter! This life is short]. The future might be full of "Oscuro túnel no deja mirar" [dark tunnels that don't let us see], but as long as he has his loved one by his side, ready to "despertar" [wake up] with him and "nunca lo dejes de intentar" [never stop trying], then "¡No me importa un demonio qué vendrá!" [I don't give a damn what's coming!]. It's a powerful message about choosing love and perseverance over fear, no matter what challenges life throws your way.
