In Mi Pecado, Mexican pop trio Reik teams up with actress-singer Maite Perroni to confess a love that feels as irresistible as it is forbidden. From the very first line, the narrator believes his destiny was sealed the moment he met her. No matter how many obstacles the world throws their way, her caricias (caresses), her voice, and the faith shining in her eyes have branded his soul forever. Loving her is portrayed as both salvation and sin: he finds heaven in her arms yet calls her mi pecado—my sin—suggesting an intense passion that breaks rules and defies reason.
The chorus underlines this sweet contradiction: Eres tú, sólo tú, la razón por la que viviré (You, only you, are the reason I will live). Even when they are apart, her memory lingers like a beautiful ache. The song’s repeated confession “Siempre te amé” (I always loved you) drives home the idea that true love can be unstoppable, enduring, and deliciously transgressive. By the end, when he asks ¿Cuál es el tuyo? (What’s yours?), the singer invites us to reflect on our own “beautiful sins”—those powerful loves we simply cannot, and perhaps should not, resist.
