Pobre Tonto Enamorado
Los Temerarios Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
caricias que no, heran de amor
palabras que no heran sinceras.
todo una mentira fue, pobre
tonto que te ofrecia, lo poco
que el tenia, pobre tonto que
te ofrecia, solo su vida.
La casita que juntos soñamos
ya no sera, Ay! hasta pena me
da, tu te reias de mi, y yo
ilusionado.
Pobre tonto enamorado.
Sin querer camine al lugarcito
aquel donde yo te veia.
hera la noche fria, la luna me
cobijo y solo ella miro, la pena
la pena que yo tenia
hera la noche fria y la luna
me miro.
Ay! Hasta pena me da, yo
Ilusionado, pobre tonto
Enamorado
These lyrics tell the story of a person who was in love with someone who did not reciprocate their feelings. The singer describes the relationship as one-sided, with affection, words, and promises that were not genuine. Despite this, the "poor fool" continued to offer everything they had, even their own life, to the other person. The dream of the little house they had planned together will never become a reality, and the singer feels a great sense of shame and embarrassment for having been so foolish and naïve.
The second verse describes a scene where the singer visits a place where they used to see the object of their affection. It's cold and dark, and only the moon witnesses their sorrow. The singer is filled with sadness and regret, and feels pity for themselves for having been so hopeful and in love with someone who did not feel the same way.
