En el cruce de caminos by Adrian Cuello — Lyrics
Cuando salí de tu entorno, de tus calles, tú cielo,
Se desgarraba el alma, Miranda de Ebro, me voy de ti.
Atrás quedaron los días de amor, ilusiones y sueños
Junto a la orilla del rio que guardaba mis secretos
Y una oración dejé a María en silencio.
Mi madre lloró al ver subirme al tren.
Hoy prometo que a ti yo volveré.

About En el cruce de caminos
Adrian Cuello’s En el cruce de caminos is a touching SSAA setting of a poignant Spanish text. The music opens with a gentle interplay between the voices, establishing a mood of tender farewell. The lyrics express the deep sorrow of leaving a beloved place, Miranda de Ebro, and the memories of love and dreams left behind by the river. The song builds with a sense of longing and hope for return, culminating in a powerful desire to find peace and closure back in the familiar streets. This secular folk song captures the universal emotions of departure, nostalgia, and the enduring connection to one’s homeland, rendered with sensitive harmonic language and expressive vocal lines.
