La Gloria Eres Tu

Alejandro Fernández's song 'La Gloria Eres Tú' is a heartfelt declaration of love, where the singer expresses his deep affection and admiration for his beloved. The lyrics are imbued with a sense of enchantment and reverence, as the singer describes his lover as the source of his ecstasy and joy. The opening lines, 'Eres mi bien lo que me tiene extasiado, ¿Porque negar que estoy de ti enamorado?' reveal the singer's overwhelming love and the undeniable impact his beloved has on him. This sets the tone for the rest of the song, which is a poetic tribute to the beloved's soul and physical beauty.

The song employs vivid imagery and metaphors to convey the depth of the singer's feelings. The reference to the beloved's 'ojazos negros de un raro fulgor' (big black eyes of a rare glow) highlights the captivating and almost mystical allure of the beloved. The singer is not just in love with the physical appearance but is deeply moved by the beloved's soul, which he describes as 'todo sentimiento' (all feeling). This suggests a profound emotional connection that transcends mere physical attraction.

The most striking part of the song is the comparison of the beloved to divine glory. The singer mentions that while God says glory is in heaven, he feels that he has found his heaven on earth in his beloved. 'Bendigo a dios porque al tenerte yo en vida, No necesito ir al cielo si tu, Alma mía, la gloria eres tu' (I bless God because having you in life, I don't need to go to heaven if you, my soul, are the glory). This powerful statement encapsulates the essence of the song, portraying the beloved as a divine presence that brings ultimate happiness and fulfillment to the singer's life.
