Júrame
Martirio Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Que te quiero
Porque nunca me habían
Visto enamorado
Yo te juro que yo mismo
No comprendo
El porqué de tu mirar
Cuando estás cerca de mí
Y estás contenta
No quisiera
Que de nadie te acordaras
Tengo celos hasta del pensamiento
Que pueda recordarte
A otra persona amada
Júrame que aunque pase
Mucho tiempo
No has de olvidar el momento
En que yo te conocí
Mírame, pues no hay nada más profundo
Ni más grande en este mundo
Que el cariño que te di
Bésame, con un beso enamorado
Como nadie me ha besado
Desde el día en que nací
Quiéreme, quiéreme hasta la locura
The lyrics to Martirio's song Júrame express the singer's overwhelming love and infatuation for an unnamed person. The opening line, "Todos dicen que es mentira que te quiero" (Everybody says that I don't love you), implies that nobody understands the depth of the singer's feelings. The song goes on to describe how the singer is fascinated by the object of their affection, but also wracked with jealousy and insecurity.
The chorus repeats the title phrase, "Júrame" (Promise me), as the singer begs their love interest to never forget the moment they met, and to love them wholly and completely. The final line of the chorus, "Quiéreme, quiéreme hasta la locura" (Love me, love me until madness), shows just how all-consuming the singer's love is.
The song's slow, melancholic melody and passionate lyrics make it a classic of Spanish language music. It speaks to the power and intensity of love, and the way it can completely warp and transform one's feelings and perspective.
