Nunca Lo Sabré, Nunca Lo Sabrás

Juan Gabriel's song 'Nunca Lo Sabré, Nunca Lo Sabrás' delves into the profound and often painful experience of unspoken love. The lyrics reveal a deep yearning and sorrow as the singer laments the distance and silence that have come to define his relationship. The repeated phrase 'Nunca nunca, tú sabrás' (Never, never, you will know) underscores the theme of unexpressed emotions and the impossibility of communication between the two lovers. This refrain highlights the singer's despair at the thought that his beloved will never know the depth of his feelings.

The song also explores the mutual uncertainty between the two lovers. The lines 'Nunca nunca, yo sabré, si me extrañas, como yo' (Never, never, I will know, if you miss me, like I do) reflect the singer's anguish over not knowing if his feelings are reciprocated. This mutual lack of knowledge creates a poignant sense of isolation and longing, as both parties are left in the dark about each other's emotions. The distance between them is not just physical but also emotional, as they are unable to bridge the gap of understanding and communication.

Additionally, the song touches on the secrecy of their love. The lyrics 'Nadie, se enteró de, nuestro amor, solo tu y yo' (No one knew about our love, only you and I) suggest that their relationship was a private affair, known only to them. This secrecy adds another layer of complexity to their situation, as it means that there is no one else who can mediate or convey their feelings to each other. The song's melancholic tone and heartfelt lyrics capture the essence of unspoken love and the pain of separation, making it a poignant reflection on the nature of hidden emotions and unfulfilled desires.
