Cronica de Un Viejo Amor

Braulio Braulio

The Timeless Echoes of Unspoken Love

Braulio's song "Cronica de Un Viejo Amor" is a poignant narrative of unrequited love that spans decades. The lyrics tell the story of a man who has harbored deep feelings for a woman since their childhood. He recalls the day she moved into his neighborhood, describing her with vivid imagery—braces, freckles, and a ponytail. His love for her was pure and innocent, manifesting in his protective behavior at school. However, his dreams were shattered at her fifteenth birthday party when he saw her dancing happily with another boy, who would later become her husband. This moment marked the beginning of his silent suffering and unfulfilled love.

As the years pass, the protagonist witnesses the woman he loves marry someone else, a sight that deepens his heartache. Despite his pain, he remains devoted to her, even as he hears from friends that her marriage has ended in sorrow and that she now dedicates herself to her children. His love remains steadfast and unspoken, a testament to his enduring devotion. The song culminates in a letter he writes to her, twenty years later, revealing his feelings and hoping she might remember him as the boy who looked at her with passion in the photos from her fifteenth birthday party.

The song is a beautiful exploration of themes such as unrequited love, nostalgia, and the passage of time. Braulio's heartfelt lyrics and emotive storytelling capture the essence of a love that, though never realized, remains a significant part of the protagonist's life. The song resonates with anyone who has experienced the bittersweet pain of loving someone from afar, highlighting the enduring nature of true love, even when it remains unspoken.
