Sin Censura
Los Retoños Del Río
Forbidden Love Without Censorship
Los Retoños Del Río's song "Sin Censura" delves into the theme of a forbidden and socially condemned love. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a relationship that defies societal norms and religious doctrines, as highlighted by the line, "Por las leyes de la santísima biblia." The couple is aware that their love is seen as inappropriate and even sinful by others, yet they choose to embrace it fully, without any reservations or apologies. This defiance is encapsulated in the repeated phrase, "Yo te quiero sin censura," which translates to "I love you without censorship."
The song uses powerful metaphors to describe the intensity and danger of their love. Terms like "zona restringida" (restricted zone) and "cosa radioactiva" (radioactive thing) suggest that their relationship is not only forbidden but also potentially harmful, at least in the eyes of society. The reference to "la manzana del pecado" (the apple of sin) evokes the biblical story of Adam and Eve, implying that their love is a form of original sin, yet they find it irresistible and worth the consequences.
Despite the societal backlash and the label of being "indecentes" (indecent), the couple finds solace and even a sense of heaven in their love. They reject the need to explain themselves to others, choosing instead to live in the moment and savor their emotions. This rebellious and passionate stance against societal norms makes "Sin Censura" a powerful anthem for those who dare to love against the odds.
