In the song of the waves

I found a murmur of light

Through a song of seagulls

I knew that you were there

Lately bidding farewell

All that happened

Today, I greet my present

And I enjoy this sweet goodbye

I'm going to sail in your blue harbor

I'd like to know where you come from

Let's let time stop

See our memories in the seas

And this loneliness so deep

That in the song of the waves

I would like to submerge myself

Getting drunk on its scent

To discover something new

I'm going to sail in your blue harbor

I'd like to know where you come from

Let's let time stop

See our memories in the seas

And this loneliness so deep

That the sea sings to me

A bolero of loneliness

That the sea sings to me

That I go alone, with loneliness

That the sea sings to me

A bolero of loneliness

That the sea sings to me

That I go alone, with loneliness

Loneliness and the sea

SONG MEANING

Soledad y el Mar paints a vivid seaside scene where the singer listens to the whispers of the waves and the cries of seagulls to make peace with her own solitude. Each salty breeze carries memories of a past love that is gently drifting away, allowing her to greet the present moment with a dulce adiós – a sweet goodbye. By imagining herself sailing into a "puerto azul," she trusts the ocean to hold her stories, silence her questions, and reveal something new about herself.

Rather than drowning in loneliness, the narrator lets the sea transform isolation into a soothing bolero de soledad. The rolling tide becomes a confidant, singing back the truth that she walks alone yet is never empty-handed. Through this musical dialogue with the ocean, the song celebrates the bittersweet beauty of letting go, honoring memories, and discovering freedom in the vast, blue unknown.
