Mil Besos

Cristian Castro's song "Mil Besos" is a passionate declaration of love that delves into the depths of romantic devotion. The lyrics express a profound transformation in the narrator's life, brought about by the love they have found. The opening lines, "He encontrado en tu amor / La fe perdida / Ahora tiene mi vida una razón," reveal that the narrator's previously lost faith has been restored through this newfound love, giving their life a renewed sense of purpose.

The song is rich with metaphors, particularly in the way it describes the power of the beloved's eyes and lips. The narrator feels as though their heart has been stolen by the beloved's enchanting gaze and the kisses they have shared. This is encapsulated in the lines, "Yo no se / Si fue el embrujo / De tus ojos / Que le dijo a tus labios / Robenle el corazón." The use of the word "embrujo" (spell) suggests a magical, almost supernatural influence that the beloved has over the narrator.

Despite societal judgments and the notion that such intense love might be considered a sin, the narrator remains undeterred. The lyrics, "Y dicen que es pecado / Querer como te quiero / Quizás tengan razón / Pero que ha de importarme / Todo lo que me digan / Si no te he de olvidar," highlight the narrator's defiance and unwavering commitment to their love. The repeated vows to continue loving and kissing the beloved, even to the point of madness, underscore the depth of their emotional investment. The song concludes with a poignant plea for the return of the heart that was given away through countless kisses, symbolizing the narrator's complete surrender to love.
