Amar y Querer

Perla Colombiana's song 'Amar y Querer' delves into the profound emotions of love and desire, exploring the nuances that differentiate the two. The lyrics emphasize the purity and depth of true love, which is given unconditionally and without pretense. The repeated lines 'Te di mi querer / Yo sin condición / Porque amar es bueno / Si es de corazón' highlight the sincerity and selflessness that characterize genuine affection. This love is portrayed as something that transcends superficial attraction, rooted deeply in the heart and soul of the individuals involved.

The chorus, 'Amar y querer solo entre tú y yo / Amar y querer solo es cosa de dos,' underscores the intimate and exclusive nature of this bond. Love and desire are depicted as a mutual exchange, a dance between two people who are united in their passion. The imagery of being 'perdidos en el tiempo de nuestra pasión' suggests a timeless connection, where the lovers lose themselves in the intensity of their emotions. This timelessness speaks to the enduring nature of true love, which remains constant despite the passage of time.

Furthermore, the song contrasts 'amar' (to love) and 'querer' (to desire), suggesting that while desire may be about wanting more, love is about giving without limits. The lines 'Como el amor, el que tú me das / Como el querer, es desearnos más' illustrate this distinction. Love is portrayed as boundless and immeasurable, while desire is an ever-growing yearning. This duality reflects the complexity of romantic relationships, where both love and desire play crucial roles in creating a deep and fulfilling connection. Perla Colombiana's heartfelt delivery and the lyrical content make 'Amar y Querer' a poignant exploration of these intertwined emotions.
