Titulo de Amor
Diomedes Díaz
A Tale of Love, Respect, and Jealousy
Diomedes Díaz's song "Titulo de Amor" delves into the complex emotions of love, respect, and jealousy within a relationship. The lyrics reveal a narrative where the singer addresses his partner, expressing that feeling jealous would be a disservice to their children and to himself. He emphasizes that jealousy would only lead to a negative portrayal of their relationship, one that would be documented in a metaphorical book titled "Vivir Celoso Conmigo" (Living Jealous with Me). This book would recount the good he has done for her and the bad she has done to him, yet he acknowledges that she remains the best thing that has happened to him.
The song also highlights the singer's gratitude towards his partner, especially as the mother of his children. Despite any grievances, he remains thankful and respectful, recognizing her significant role in their family. This respect is likened to the reverence Joseph had for Mary, the mother of Jesus, even when he felt jealousy. The comparison to such a sacred relationship underscores the depth of the singer's respect and the importance of their bond.
Throughout the song, there is a recurring theme of forgiveness and understanding. The singer repeatedly states that he is not resentful but rather grateful for the experiences they have shared. This sentiment is reinforced by the invocation of the Virgin of Carmen, asking for her blessing and guidance. The song beautifully captures the essence of enduring love, the challenges of jealousy, and the importance of respect and gratitude in a relationship.
