La chanson raconte l'histoire des mages qui, après avoir visité l'enfant Jésus, décident de rentrer chez eux par un chemin détourné pour échapper aux machinations du roi Hérode. Elle évoque le choix de prendre des décisions sages et la nécessité de rester vigilants face aux dangers, même lorsque l’on est en quête de lumière et d'espoir. Il y est question d'échapper aux intentions malveillantes pour trouver un chemin plus sûr. Le contexte fait référence à l'épisode biblique de l'adoration des mages, mais il va au-delà de la simple narration pour offrir une réflexion sur la sagacité dans nos choix quotidiens. Cela nous rappelle que dans la vie, il peut être essentiel de réévaluer nos routes et de chercher des alternatives, surtout lorsque l’on fait face à des défis ou des dangers. C'est un message intemporel sur l'importance de la prudence et de la réflexion.
