Que Pasa Con Nuestro Amor

Banda Cuisillos' song 'Que Pasa Con Nuestro Amor' delves into the complexities of a romantic relationship strained by socioeconomic differences. The lyrics express the narrator's deep love and commitment to their partner, juxtaposed with the partner's apparent discomfort and unease, possibly due to the narrator's financial status. The repeated questioning of 'What is happening with our love?' underscores the confusion and pain felt by the narrator as they grapple with the possibility that their poverty might be a barrier to their partner's happiness.

The song poignantly highlights the narrator's pride in their humble background, stating, 'Siempre he sido pobre y no me avergüenzo' (I have always been poor and I am not ashamed). This line reflects a sense of dignity and self-worth despite financial hardships. However, the narrator also acknowledges the harsh reality that their poverty might be affecting their partner's ability to be truly happy, as seen in the line, 'Acaso será que mi pobreza se te sube a la cabeza y no te deja ser feliz' (Could it be that my poverty gets to your head and doesn't let you be happy?). This internal conflict between love and financial insecurity is a central theme of the song.

The desire for a partner who will stand by them through thick and thin is evident in the lines, 'Yo quiero una mujer que este conmigo, que en verdad ese sea mi gran motivo' (I want a woman who is with me, who truly is my great reason). The narrator longs for a love that transcends material wealth, one that can endure the good times and the bad. This yearning for unconditional love and support is a powerful message that resonates with many who face similar struggles in their relationships.
