Derroche De Amor Lyrics in English by Alex Campos
Derroche means a "lavish display" or "outpouring" of something, often implying an abundance or even an excess. It's a strong word that goes beyond a simple "lot of love."
In "Derroche De Amor," Alex Campos uses this word to describe the immense and overwhelming love that the divine has shown. He sings, "Un derroche de amor el que tú diste por mí" (A lavish outpouring of love is what you gave for me), emphasizing the boundless and extravagant nature of this love. It's a beautiful and impactful way to convey profound affection.
Alex Campos's "Derroche De Amor" is such a beautiful declaration of overwhelming love and gratitude! He sings about having a heart that's completely devoted, saying, "Tengo un corazón que se alimenta de tu suave y dulce voz" [I have a heart that feeds on your soft and sweet voice]. It's a heart that beats to this love's rhythm and even stops if it's missing this warmth.
He's amazed by this love, especially because he feels undeserving: "No entiendo tanto amor, Tú me amaste siendo yo un pecador" [I don't understand so much love, You loved me being a sinner]. Because of this incredible, sacrificial love – "Diste tu vida, te entregaste tú por mí" [You gave your life, you gave yourself for me] – he gives everything in return. He says, "Ahora rindo lo que soy, Rindo mi vida, soy esclavo por amor" [Now I surrender what I am, I surrender my life, I am a slave for love]. It's a powerful song about being completely captivated and transformed by a love that feels like an "Un derroche de amor" [a lavish display of love].
