Que Pecado
Isabel Pantoja Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Y diferente, lo escondamos,
Si es tan puro, cristalino y transparente,
Que pecado, que pudiendo ser la envidia de la gente,
Lo ocultemos tristemente.
Que pecado, que este amor siendo tan grande no reviente,
Que no vuele, que no grite si sabemos que es valiente
Y vivamos a escondia,
Que pecado, no poder amanecer entre tus brazos,
Disfrutar de este cariño en tu regazo,
Vida mia , que pecado,
Que pecado, que la noche terminara tan de prisa
Y se fuera tu perfume con la briza,
Amor mio, que pecado.
The lyrics to Isabel Pantoja's song "Que Pecado" are a lament over a forbidden love that the singer and her lover must keep hidden. Despite the beauty and purity of their love, they are forced to keep it secret due to societal pressures and expectations. The singer expresses her sadness and frustration that they cannot fully express their love, and wonders why they must hide such a beautiful thing. She questions why they cannot be open about their love and enjoy it without fear of judgement or persecution. The song is a reflection on the complexities of human relationships, the pain of forbidden love, and the societal pressures that can prevent people from expressing their true feelings.
The repeated refrain of "que pecado" ("what a sin") serves to emphasize the singer's disbelief and frustration that something as beautiful and pure as their love could be considered sinful. It also underscores the idea that societal conventions and expectations can sometimes cause us to ignore our own hearts, and prevent us from pursuing the things that truly make us happy. The song's somber tone and melancholy melody underscore the sadness and longing that the singer feels for her forbidden love.
