Gomu Gomu
AIM WIND
The Mythical Power of the Forbidden Fruit
The song "Gomu Gomu" by AIM WIND is a vibrant and adventurous tale that draws inspiration from the world of mythical powers and legendary heroes. The lyrics revolve around a forbidden fruit that grants its consumer the power of a celestial deity. This fruit, however, chooses only the purest of hearts to bestow its power upon, setting the stage for a noble hero to rise and fulfill a grand promise of liberating the world.
The recurring phrase "Gomu gomu" serves as a rhythmic chant throughout the song, symbolizing the omnipresence and enduring nature of this mythical power. The narrative unfolds with the hero's journey, highlighting a great battle where the chosen one implements a plan to usher in a new era. The fruit's cyclical nature is emphasized as it reappears, defying attempts by a cruel empire to suppress it, ultimately breaking free from its chains.
A pivotal moment in the song occurs when a red-haired figure challenges the World Government, leading to an unexpected twist where a child inadvertently becomes the new bearer of the fruit's power. This child, now a "man of rubber," embodies innocence and bravery, destined to become a future captain. The song's energetic and repetitive chorus, "Gomu gomu ¡aquí! Gomu gomu ¡allá!" reinforces the idea of this power's eternal return, accompanied by the sound of drums, symbolizing the ongoing saga and the promise of continuation.
"Gomu Gomu" captures the essence of adventure, destiny, and the timeless struggle between freedom and oppression, all wrapped in a lively and engaging musical package.
