La Moral

Sabino's song 'La Moral' delves into the complexities of morality and personal relationships, questioning societal norms and individual choices. The repetitive chorus, 'Tú ya sabías' (You already knew), sets the tone for a conversation about pre-existing knowledge and expectations in a relationship. The artist grapples with the idea of what is considered right or wrong, asking, '¿Quién define lo que está bien? ¿Quién define lo que está mal?' (Who defines what is right? Who defines what is wrong?). This reflects a broader philosophical inquiry into the nature of morality and who gets to set these standards.

The lyrics reveal a tension between the singer and his partner, who is now unhappy with the relationship dynamics. Sabino acknowledges his flaws, admitting to being a 'mujeriego' (womanizer), and emphasizes that his partner was aware of this from the beginning. This admission brings forth the theme of personal responsibility and the consequences of entering a relationship with full knowledge of the other person's character. The repeated line, 'No digas que no te advertí' (Don't say I didn't warn you), underscores this point, suggesting that the partner's current dissatisfaction is a result of ignoring these initial warnings.

Moreover, the song touches on societal judgment and the constraints it imposes on personal relationships. Sabino questions the validity of societal rules, stating, 'Lo que tú y yo estamos jugando es algo que no es válido en esta sociedad' (What you and I are playing is something that is not valid in this society). This line highlights the conflict between individual desires and societal expectations, suggesting that true happiness might lie in defying these norms. The song ultimately portrays a struggle between staying true to oneself and conforming to societal standards, leaving the listener to ponder the true meaning of morality and personal freedom.
