Dos Almas
Leo Marini Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Dos almas que en el mundo
había unido Dios,
dos almas que se amaban,
eso éramos tú y yo.

Por la sangrante herida
de nuestro inmenso amor
nos dábamos la vida
como jamás se vio.

Un día en el camino
que cruzaban nuestras almas
surgió una sombra de odio
que nos apartó a los dos.

Y desde aquel instante
mejor fuera morir,
ni cerca ni distante
podemos ya vivir.

Un día en el camino
que cruzaban nuestras almas
surgió una sombra de odio
que nos apartó a los dos.

Y desde aquel instante
mejor fuera morir,
ni cerca ni distante
podemos ya vivir.





Ni cerca ni distante podemos ya vivir…

Overall Meaning

In the song 'Dos Almas', Leo Marini sings about the love between two souls that was blessed by God. The lyrics talk about how those two souls were deeply in love with one another and willing to give their lives for each other. However, a shadow of hate fell on their path, and they were separated from each other. The separation has left them empty and incomplete, making them feel that they can't live either together or apart. The theme of the song is that love is a precious gift from God, and it is fragile in the face of hatred.


The first stanza shows the depth of the lovers' affection for each other. The phrase "dos almas que se amaban" (two souls that loved each other) is repeated twice, emphasizing that the two are inseparable. The lines "Por la sangrante herida / de nuestro inmenso amor" (through the bleeding wound of our immense love) suggest that their love was so intense that it caused pain. The second stanza shows how an obstacle in the form of hate ruined their relationship. The phrase "surgió una sombra de odio" (a shadow of hate appeared) is a powerful metaphor for the evil that separated them. The repetition of the last two lines of each stanza drives home the message that they cannot live without each other.


Overall, the lyrics of the song 'Dos Almas' are a sad tale of lost love. The words paint a picture of two people whose love was perfect until it was destroyed by external forces. The pain of separation is palpable in the lyrics, and Leo Marini's delivery only amplifies the emotions conveyed in the words.
