Piensa en Mí
Agustín Lara Lyrics

The song "Piensa en mi" by Agustín Lara is an emotional ballad about the power of love and the longing for a lost lover. The opening lines of the song, "Si tienes un hondo penar, piensa en mí" (if you have a deep sadness, think of me), suggest that the singer is offering comfort and support to someone who is going through a difficult time. Throughout the rest of the song, the singer urges his/her lover to think of them in moments of both joy and sadness, to remember the passion and intensity of their love, and to realize that life is empty without them.

One of the most striking aspects of the song is its use of religious imagery. The line "Tu imagen divina" (your divine image) suggests that the lover is someone to be worshiped, while the reference to a "párvula boca" (childlike mouth) suggests innocence and purity. The line "me enseñó a pecar" (she taught me to sin) is both sensual and sacrilegious, conveying a sense of forbidden desire and passion.

The repetition of the refrain, "Piensa en mí cuando beses, cuando llores, también piensa en mí" (think of me when you kiss, when you cry, also think of me), reinforces the idea that love is all-consuming and ever-present, even in moments of grief and despair. The final lines of the song, "No la quiero para nada, para nada me sirve sin ti" (I don't want anything, it's useless without you), convey a sense of desperation and despair, as the singer realizes that life is incomplete and meaningless without their loved one.
