Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
con el alma entristecida
porque me dejas, y te alejas de mi vida
si tu bien sabes que te vas y yo me muero
porque me dejas vida mia si yo te quiero
el sacrificio del amor es el olvido
no sacrifiques en tus garras mi querer
si tu llevas lo mejor que yo he vivido
el sacrificio del amor es el olvido
no sacrifiques en tus garras mi querer
si tu te llevas lo mejor que yo he vivido
la inquietud de tus besos va en mi ser
The song Sacrificio by Hermanos Martínez Gil is a poignant ballad that expresses the pain of a man who is being left by his loved one. The opening lines "porque me dejas con el alma entristecida, porque me dejas, y te alejas de mi vida" (why do you leave me with a saddened soul, why do you leave me and go away from my life) sets the tone of the song as one that refers to a relationship that has ended. The singer then questions why his loved one would leave him when she knows that he loves her and would do anything for her. He expresses the deep desire he has for her and how her leaving him is causing him great pain.
The refrain of the song "El sacrificio del amor es el olvido" (the sacrifice of love is forgetting) is repeated twice and is the central message of the song. It is a sad truth that sometimes the sacrifice of love is letting go of the person you love in order to move on. The singer implores his loved one not to sacrifice his love for her by taking the best part of him with her. He begs her not to take the memory of his love and the passion she has aroused in him by embracing him with her kisses.
Overall, Sacrificio is a heart-wrenching song that speaks to the universal human experience of love and loss. It is a reminder that sometimes the deepest expression of love is letting go.

No cabe duda que la música romántica interpretada por tríos es un género musical maravilloso y único. En mi opinión es la música más bella que se ha creado en Latinoamérica......
