Murió El Amor Lyrics in English by Corazon Serrano
Entregarnos comes from the verb entregar, meaning "to give" or "to deliver." The reflexive nos makes it "to give ourselves" or "to surrender ourselves."
In the context of "Murió el Amor," it speaks to the deep commitment and vulnerability in a relationship. The lyrics, "lo que hacemos fueron escamas de entregarnos" (what we do were scales of giving ourselves), suggest a gradual, perhaps painful, process of surrendering completely to love, which ultimately failed. It's a poignant word that captures the essence of a love that was once all-encompassing but has now died.
This song, "Murió El Amor" by Corazon Serrano, is all about the painful decision to leave a love that has died. The singer is looking back at a relationship where the passion has faded. They sing about how, after years of loving, their efforts were like "escamas de entregarnos" [scales of giving ourselves], implying a superficial or unfulfilling connection. They lament that "si estás en casa ni siquiera me hablas" [if you're home, you don't even talk to me] and how "nuestras miradas ya no hay te quiero" [in our gazes, there's no 'I love you' anymore].
The singer is ready to move on, declaring "Voy a cruzar esa puerta de toledo hacia ti" [I'm going to cross that Toledo door away from you]. They hope that "tal vez con otro cariño yo pueda ser feliz" [maybe with another love I can be happy]. The repeated lines "me voy me voy me voy me voy lejos a ti" [I'm leaving, I'm leaving, I'm leaving, I'm leaving far from you] and "murió el amor para qué seguir" [love died, why continue?] really drive home the finality and the resignation that sometimes, it's just time to walk away when the love is gone.
