Gobiérname

Diamante Eléctrico's song "Gobiérname" is a passionate ode to surrendering oneself entirely to a lover. The lyrics are rich with metaphors and vivid imagery, painting a picture of a person who has found solace and refuge in the arms of their beloved. The opening lines, "Ya pedí asilo entre tus piernas / Ya me rendí a tu voluntad," set the tone for the song, indicating a complete submission to the lover's will. This act of surrender is not portrayed as a loss of power but rather as a sanctuary from the world's chaos and pain.

The recurring theme of seeking refuge is evident throughout the song. Phrases like "Escóndeme bajo tu vestido, que ahí Dios me cuida / De todo mal" and "Dame tu refugio / Exíliame, gobiérname" emphasize the lover's role as a protector and a safe haven. The lover is described as an oasis in the desert, a jungle in the city, and a promised paradise, highlighting their transformative and healing presence in the narrator's life. The imagery of war and peace is also prevalent, with the narrator stating, "100 años en guerra y encontré mi lugar / Entrego mis armas y me mudo a tu altar," symbolizing the end of a long struggle and the beginning of a peaceful existence.

The song also delves into the spiritual and almost divine nature of love. The lover is likened to a deity, with the narrator offering prayers and living in their garden. This spiritual connection is further emphasized by the use of words like "altar," "Sol," and "halo divino," suggesting that the lover's presence brings a sense of divinity and purpose to the narrator's life. The repeated plea to be governed, "Ven y gobiérname," underscores the desire for this deep, all-encompassing connection, where the lover's influence permeates every aspect of the narrator's existence.
