MESÍAS

Averly Morillo's song "MESÍAS" is a deeply spiritual and evocative piece that speaks to the anticipation and preparation for the return of the Messiah. The lyrics are simple yet profound, reflecting a state of readiness and expectation for a significant spiritual event. The repeated phrase 'Mi templo / He preparado / Mi lámpara encendida está' suggests that the individual has prepared themselves internally, likening their heart or soul to a temple that is ready to receive the divine. The lamp being kept lit is a metaphor for maintaining faith and vigilance.

The song also touches on a collective longing, with lines like 'La tierra está gimiendo / Por El que vino y que vendrá' and 'Que Tu pueblo te espera.' These lines indicate that not only is the individual waiting for the Messiah, but the Earth and its people are in a state of groaning or yearning for the return of the one who has come before and is prophesied to come again. This is a common theme in many religious beliefs, particularly in Christianity, which holds the belief in the second coming of Christ.

The chorus 'Ven, ven, ven, ven, ven / Mesías ven' is a direct and impassioned plea for the Messiah to come. The repetition of 'ven' (come) emphasizes the urgency and deep desire for this event. The song concludes with a universal vision of recognition and humility before the Messiah, as 'Todo ojo le verá / Todo ante Él se humillará.' This suggests a future moment when all of humanity will see and bow before the Messiah, acknowledging the fulfillment of the awaited promise.
