Virtud translates to "virtue," a word that speaks to inherent goodness and moral excellence. It's not as common in everyday song lyrics as words like "amor" or "vida," making it stand out.
In "Te Lo Pido Por Favor," the lyric "Ser muy buena es tu virtud" (Being very good is your virtue) highlights the deep admiration and respect the singer has for the person. It emphasizes their intrinsic positive qualities, making it a powerful and endearing compliment within the song's plea for companionship.
Jaguares built this song around a single, repeated vow: "Tu me sabes bien cuidar, tu me sabes bien guiar" [You know how to take care of me, you know how to guide me]. The singer keeps listing what the other person gives him — care, patience, guidance — and keeps answering with the same offer back: "Pues ten mi vida, te la doy" [So take my life, I give it to you].
The plea in the title arrives right after that exchange, and it's the whole point of the song: "Pero no me dejes nunca, nunca, nunca. Te lo pido por favor" [But don't ever leave me, never, never, never. I'm asking you, please]. Nothing here is subtle or coy — the chorus just repeats that request until it becomes the song's only real subject, a promise of loyalty traded for one in return.
