A Heart's Plea for Lost Love in 'Quizas' by Manuel Mijares

In 'Quizas,' Manuel Mijares delivers a poignant ballad that delves deep into the anguish and longing of a heart yearning for lost love. The song opens with a plea to be taken in dreams to the heart of the beloved, invoking a divine entity, the 'God of kisses,' to listen to his prayer. This metaphorical deity represents the power of love and affection, which the singer feels is unresponsive to his desperate cries. The absence of his lover renders the moon a mere stone and the sea dense, illustrating how love imbues the world with meaning and beauty.

The chorus reveals the depth of his despair and determination. He asks for his song to be placed within her heart, hoping that the secret message of his unbearable pain will reach her. The imagery of 'cutting clouds and emptying the sea' signifies the lengths he is willing to go to win her back, emphasizing his unwavering commitment. The repetition of 'Quizas' (perhaps) underscores the uncertainty and hope that she might return, driven by the transformative power of his love.

Mijares also addresses Cupid, the blind and illiterate angel of love, blaming him for his broken heart. Despite this, he refuses to give up, expressing a desire to rekindle their romance. The song's emotional intensity is heightened by its lyrical repetition, reinforcing the themes of hope, perseverance, and the transformative power of love. 'Quizas' is a heartfelt ode to the enduring nature of true love and the lengths one will go to reclaim it, even in the face of uncertainty.
