I saw you in Miraflores
Crossing Manco Cápac
So happy
Empress of the sun
And the vast sea
When you arrived in Japan
Among the waves, the wind and the salt
Mermaid at last
They bowed to you
Goddess of the sun
Goddess of the sun
In Nepal you played bowls
You prayed to the sky tha Koyu
You cried in Baghdad
Before the temples
You danced the dance of the seven veils
Transmuted into Salomé
Ishtar in Babylon
You jumped from the Eiffel Tower
You drank in the
And in Granada the ghost kissed you
Of the dead poet
Before the execution
You turned to night on the Guadalquivir
You bewitched the Irish writer
You got naked in Dublin, my love
That's when I love you
It was Mr. Joyce that loved you
You left behind
Ulysses in the Mediterranean
Before becoming
A statue of salt
Odyssey your return that opened
The waters of the sea
Civilizations in Atlantis
And you flew over the Amazon
And at last you arrived in Lima, your hometown
And you fell asleep
Between the Bridge and La Alameda

SONG MEANING

Pack your bags and fasten your seatbelt! In “Diosa Del Sol,” Argentine legend Fito Páez paints a radiant portrait of a woman who is part muse, part mythological goddess, and 100 percent unstoppable wanderer. We see her stroll through Miraflores under the Peruvian sun, dive into Japanese waves like a siren, and let Himalayan bells echo her prayers in Nepal. Every city crowns her anew: Salomé in Baghdad, Ishtar in Babylon, a fearless acrobat leaping from the Eiffel Tower. Her journey is a whirlwind of cultures, legends, and emotions, suggesting that true divinity lies in curiosity and freedom.

Yet beneath the postcard moments runs a love story. The narrator follows her trail with wide-eyed wonder until, in Dublin, even James Joyce falls under her spell. By the time she circles back to Lima and drifts to sleep between the Puente and La Alameda, we realize the song is both a celebration of her boundless spirit and a tender confession: the world may try to claim her, but the singer’s heart already has. Let “Diosa Del Sol” remind you that exploring new horizons—geographical, cultural, or emotional—can turn anyone into a sun-kissed deity.
