Letra del Vals Amor (2)

¡Ay! ¡Amor!
Sueño azul
que embriagás
cual licor,
es tu luz
manantial
de ilusión.

Vos Amor,
no mirás
más allá
porque sos
dicha al fin
y feliz
quien te vio.

Y sentirás
la luz del sol,
la primavera.
Y se abrirá
como una flor
tu vida entera.

¡Ay¡ ¡Amor!
Yo no sé
qué poder
en tu voz
que al cantar
tu canción
embrujás.

English lyrics of the Vals "Amor (2)"

Oh, Love!
Blue dream
that intoxicates
like a liquor,
your light is
a spring
of illusion.

Love,
you don’t look
further
because you are
ultimately joy,
and happy
is who saw you.

And you will feel
the sunlight,
the spring.
And like a flower,
your whole life
will open up.

Oh, Love!
I do not know
what power
is in your voice
that when you sing
your song,
you bewitch.

“Amor (2)” expresses a longing for an idealized and intoxicating love. It acknowledges love as a dreamlike, consuming force that enchants and bewilders like a spell. The Spanish lyrics, filled with evocative language, speak directly to Love as if addressing a person, emphasizing its profound impact on human emotions and experiences. The words “Sueño azul” (“blue dream”) and the comparison of love to liquor show its deep, often overwhelming nature.



Symbolism of Amor (2)

Symbolic language plays a crucial role in “Amor (2),” with the mention of “light,” “spring,” and a “flower” symbolizing renewal, hope, and the blossoming of life through love. These motifs suggest that love is a transformative force that brings warmth and rejuvenation, akin to the sun in spring that prompts a flower to open. This comparison encapsulates the essence of love’s power to open and enrich one’s life in the simplest yet most profound ways.
