Una Oracion

Rocío Durcal's song "Una Oracion" is a heartfelt ballad that delves into themes of longing, faith, and the joy of reunion. The lyrics tell the story of someone who prays every morning for the return of a loved one. This daily prayer is a ritual, a beacon of hope in the midst of sorrow and loneliness. The repetition of the phrase "cada mañana" (every morning) emphasizes the persistence and unwavering faith of the narrator, who believes that their prayers will eventually be answered.

The song captures the emotional turmoil experienced during the absence of a loved one. The days are described as sad and the nights as cold, highlighting the deep sense of loss and emptiness. The narrator's life is depicted as incomplete without the presence of their beloved. This emotional landscape is a common theme in many of Durcal's songs, which often explore the complexities of love and heartache.

When the loved one finally returns, the narrator's prayers are answered, and their happiness is restored. The song shifts from a tone of melancholy to one of joy and gratitude. The narrator thanks God for listening to their prayers and bringing their loved one back. The final plea, "Nunca te vayas de más amor" (Never leave again, my love), underscores the fear of losing this happiness once more and the desire for a lasting reunion. This song beautifully encapsulates the power of faith and the profound impact of love on our lives.
