Perdón Por Vivir
Hamlet Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Nací, quién iba a decir
que de nacer me iba a arrepentir
Crecí, nada me faltó
y no comprendí que vida era peor

Madre, nadie me empujó
Madre, todo lo hice yo
Madre, no te quise oir
Madre, no llores por mi

Sufre, rogar a Dios un sitio para mi
Miedo, solo a vivir nunca a morir

Cambié suerte por dolor
desconfié de quién me trató mejor
Perdí mi personalidad
y traicioné a quién intento ayudar

Padre, me faltó valor
Padre, ese no era yo
Padre, aconséjame
Padre, lo conseguiré

Miente, un juego simple había que seguir
Roba, para subir, luego caer

Me sobra tiempo para pensar,
y no tengo suelo firme donde pisar
que soy yo, que eres tu
Mírame a la cara y lo verás
No se, como acabaré, tal vez hoy pueda salir
Nadie a mi lado está, me he condenado a muerte

Sufre, rogar a Dios un sitio para mi
Miedo, solo a vivir nunca a morir

Miente, un juego simple había que seguir
Roba, para subir, luego caer





Perdón por vivir, perdón por vivir
Perdón por vivir, perdón por vivir

Overall Meaning

Hamlet's song Perdón Por Vivir speaks of the regrets and mistakes made throughout life. The lyrics begins with Hamlet expressing regret for even being born, lamenting that he never realized the harshness and struggles of life while growing up. He admits to being a product of his own decisions and sins, and wishes he had listened to his mother who may have counselled him on the right path.


He also sheds light on how he chose to trade happiness for pain and agony, even going against those who cared and tried to help him. Hamlet blames his lack of courage and self-doubt for losing his true self and betraying those who tried to assist him. In the end, he feels completely alone, having condemned himself to a life of hardship and misery. The chorus 'Perdón por vivir' repeated throughout the song, can be translated to 'Sorry for living', which emphasizes Hamlet's remorse and the feeling that he is a burden to those around him.


In summary, the song Perdón Por Vivir is a self-reflective piece that speaks of the mistakes and regrets of a person's life. The lyrics paint a picture of a lost soul, who traded happiness for pain and ultimately regretted even being alive. Despite the regret and sorrow expressed, there is a sense of accountability and admission of guilt, perhaps recognizing that change is possible.
