| Dido – This Land Is Mine Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
The song, to me, seems to be based on the ancient story of Dido and Aeneas (from the Aeneid) where Dido is a widow queen over her people, and Aeneas comes over the sea, and, with the help of the gods, wins over her heart, although she has sworn it to her dead husband. The falling of the walls would be the flagging construction teams of Carthage, as their queen becomes idle, so the construction stops. Perhaps this interpretation is a little too obvious, but the story seems to fit very well with other interpretations for this song, so it could be a double meaning. |
