Una Vez Mas
Gabriel Coronel
The Eternal Flame of Forbidden Love
Gabriel Coronel's song "Una Vez Mas" delves into the complexities of a love that defies boundaries and societal norms. The lyrics are a passionate declaration of an undying love that persists despite obstacles and prohibitions. Coronel's emotive delivery and the poetic nature of the lyrics create a vivid picture of a love that is both intense and forbidden, yet irresistible and enduring.
The song opens with the protagonist expressing his deep affection, suggesting that the mere act of saying "I love you" and the physical connection with his lover could reignite their past romance. The imagery of discovering the essence of the beloved in one's hands and the aroma that lingers speaks to the sensory and almost spiritual connection between the two. This connection is so profound that it feels as if it is tattooed on their very beings, making it impossible to forget.
As the song progresses, the protagonist acknowledges the power of a single glance from his lover, which can compel him to respond and draw him closer, unable to retreat. The chorus emphasizes the determination to stay just a moment longer, to let go of the prohibitions surrounding their love, and to find refuge in each other's embrace. The repeated vow to fight for this love, even at the cost of his life, underscores the depth of his commitment and the intensity of his emotions.
The recurring theme of fighting for love "una vez más" (one more time) highlights the cyclical nature of their relationship, where despite the challenges, the desire to reunite and lose themselves in each other remains strong. The song captures the essence of a love that is both passionate and forbidden, yet unwavering and eternal.
