The Blossoming of Love: A Journey Through Chayanne's 'Va Creciendo El Amor'
Chayanne's song 'Va Creciendo El Amor' is a poetic exploration of the deepening and evolving nature of love. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a love that grows stronger and more profound over time. The opening lines, 'El sutil andamio de tus ojos, Son mi penitencia,' suggest that the gaze of the beloved is both a gentle scaffold and a form of penance, indicating the transformative power of love. This love makes the narrator see the 'other side of the light,' implying a new perspective or enlightenment brought about by the relationship.
The song continues to describe the mental and emotional journey the narrator undergoes, with phrases like 'Vienes y desandas por mi mente, Me haces inocente, tanto como humano, simple y tan común.' Here, the beloved's presence in the narrator's mind brings a sense of innocence and humanity, grounding them in simplicity and commonality. The chorus, 'Va creciendo el amor y en la ilusión, Se nos queda la piel amándonos, Es volver a nacer cuando tú y yo Estamos juntos,' emphasizes the theme of rebirth and renewal that love brings. The physical and emotional connection between the lovers is so intense that it feels like being born again each time they are together.
Chayanne also touches on the idea of trust and vulnerability in love. Lines like 'No es que me convenza con tus frases, O si en ti confío, Pero te daría en mano el corazón,' reveal a willingness to give one's heart despite uncertainties. The metaphor of 'El tocar el vals de tu respiro, Es a plena luna ver el sol,' beautifully captures the surreal and magical experience of being in love, likening it to seeing the sun at midnight. The song's repetition of the chorus reinforces the central message: love is a growing, living entity that continually renews and revitalizes those who experience it.
'Va Creciendo El Amor' is a celebration of love's power to transform, renew, and bring profound joy and meaning to life. Chayanne's emotive delivery and the lyrical depth make this song a timeless ode to the beauty of love.
