Ahora y Siempre
La Mafia Lyrics

The lyrics of La Mafia's song Ahora y Siempre mostly talks about the singer's love for someone who might not have the same degree of love for him. The opening lines, "Me estas haciendo daño cuando me miras, sabes cuanto te amo, ¿por qué no te animas?" which translates to "You are hurting me when you look at me, you know how much I love you, why don't you take the leap?" portrays this idea. The singer believes that his love interest is playing hard to get, and her game is taking a toll on him. He pleads for mercy while asking her to be with him by confessing his love, "Ay, Ay, Ay, corazon, no soy de hierro, ten piedad por favor porque me muero. Ay, Ay, Ay, corazon, quiero tus besos, ven why toma mi amor, yo te lo ofresco," which translates to "Oh, oh, oh, heart, I am not made of iron, have mercy, please, because I am dying. Oh, oh, oh, heart, I want your kisses, come and take my love, I offer it to you."

The chorus of the song, "Ay, Ay, Ay, corazon, deja ya de jugar … Estas tocando fuego," which translates to "Oh, oh, oh, heart, stop playing … You are playing with fire," serves as a warning to the singer's love interest to stop playing games as their excessive flirting and teasing are causing him a considerable amount of pain. He tells her that he has asked her to be his several times, and if she is not interested, she should stop giving him false hope. However, he still loves her and is willing to be with her if she chooses to reciprocate his love, "Mil veces te he pedido que seas mía Si ahora dices que sí después lo olvidas … Ay, Ay, Ay, corazon, quiero tus besos."
