Prisionera

Shamanes' song 'Prisionera' delves into the intense and consuming nature of love, portraying it as both a beautiful and binding force. The lyrics express a deep affection and connection between the singer and his beloved, emphasizing the idea of being 'prisoners' of each other's hearts. The repeated lines 'I love you, I love girl, you are my friend, you are my girl' set the tone for the song, highlighting the dual nature of their relationship as both friends and lovers.

The metaphor of being a 'prisoner' is central to the song, suggesting that love can be both liberating and confining. The singer describes his beloved as 'prisionera de mi corazón' (prisoner of my heart), indicating that their love is so powerful that it binds them together in an unbreakable bond. This bond is further illustrated by phrases like 'vivirás cien años de este amor' (you will live a hundred years of this love) and 'atada a mis besos' (tied to my kisses), which convey a sense of eternal commitment and passion.

The song also explores the transformative power of love. The singer claims to have made his beloved 'tan mujer' (so much a woman) and describes himself as a 'huracán sobre tu amor' (hurricane over your love), suggesting that their relationship has profoundly changed and shaped both of them. The imagery of a hurricane conveys the intensity and uncontrollable nature of their emotions, while the idea of being 'en pie de guerra' (at war) for love underscores the struggles and efforts involved in maintaining such a passionate connection. Ultimately, 'Prisionera' is a celebration of love's power to captivate, transform, and bind two souls together in an unbreakable embrace.
