Por El Amor a Mi Madre

Los Ángeles Azules' song "Por el amor a madre" is a touching tribute to the transformative power of a mother's love. The lyrics reflect a deep sense of regret and realization from the perspective of someone who has come to understand the value of their youth and the warmth of their family. The song begins with the narrator lamenting the passage of time and the missed opportunities to appreciate the guidance and love provided by their parents, particularly their mother. This sense of loss is poignantly captured in the repeated question, "Donde estas juventud, donde estas?" (Where are you, youth, where are you?).

The song then shifts to a more reflective tone, acknowledging the wisdom and sacrifices of the mother, symbolized by her "cabeza blanca" (white hair) and the tears she shed. The narrator admits to having been indifferent to her advice and unaware of her suffering, highlighting a common theme of youthful rebellion and the eventual realization of a parent's enduring love. This realization prompts a heartfelt promise to change, driven by the desire to honor and repay the mother's unwavering love and support.

The chorus reinforces this commitment to change, with the narrator vowing to abandon harmful behaviors and embrace a more responsible and loving lifestyle. The repetition of the lines "ya no bebere y rebelde no seré" (I will no longer drink and I will not be rebellious) and "yo quiero cambiar por ese gran amor que es el de mi madre" (I want to change for that great love that is my mother's) underscores the sincerity and depth of this transformation. The song concludes with a plea for forgiveness from life, God, and the beloved mother, solidifying the narrator's resolve to change out of love and respect for her.
