Forbidden Love: The Eternal Struggle in 'Sigamos Pecando'
In 'Sigamos Pecando,' Sandro delves into the complexities of a forbidden love that defies societal norms and personal fears. The song opens with a plea to forget a moment of doubt, emphasizing the overwhelming nature of their love. Despite the torment and tears it brings, this love is described as their ultimate source of happiness, even though it is deemed 'prohibited.' This sets the stage for a narrative that explores the tension between societal expectations and personal desires.
The lyrics highlight the constant battle the lovers face. Sandro sings about 'venciendo el peligro de quererte' (overcoming the danger of loving you) and 'la angustia de pecar' (the anguish of sinning), suggesting that their love is fraught with peril and moral conflict. Yet, the repeated refrain 'es mejor que sigamos pecando' (it's better that we keep sinning) underscores their decision to continue their relationship despite the consequences. This defiance against societal norms and the willingness to embrace their 'sin' for the sake of love is a powerful statement about the lengths people will go to for true connection.
The song also paints a vivid picture of the lovers' world, one that is clouded by an 'impossible world' and a 'sky of shadows' that obscure their light. Despite these obstacles, the lovers find solace in each other. Sandro's poetic imagery, such as the lover being 'in the foam playing in the sea' and 'a star in my eternal smile,' conveys a sense of eternal presence and unwavering commitment. The song concludes with a reaffirmation of their choice to continue 'sinning' together, suggesting that their love, though fraught with challenges, is worth every risk.
