Por Su Amor Lyrics in English by Sting, Kurt
Descifrar means to "decipher" or "decode." It's an intriguing word that suggests solving a mystery or understanding something complex, which isn't a common theme in everyday song lyrics.
In the context of Sting's song, the singer expresses an intense devotion, stating, "Lograré descifrar" (I will manage to decipher) the lines of Mars and the celestial bodies. This highlights his willingness to go to extraordinary lengths and solve cosmic puzzles for the sake of love, making the word both poetic and powerful.
Sting and Kurt's "Por Su Amor" is all about the incredible lengths a man will go to for the woman he loves. It's truly a declaration of absolute devotion! He asks, "¿Qué es lo que no intentaría un hombre superar?" [What would a man not try to overcome?], implying there's nothing he wouldn't face. He's ready to do anything, from traveling "entre las nubes sin dinero" [through the clouds without money] to painting her name on a tram, and even going "a Marte él lo haría sin pensar" [to Mars, he would do it without thinking].
He's not just talking about grand gestures; he's also willing to conquer his deepest fears, the ones that "suelen traicionar" [usually betray]. He promises to give her "hasta el sol y el mar" [even the sun and the sea] and to fly to the sky to "descifrar" [decipher] the lines of Mars. This song is a powerful statement about boundless love and unwavering commitment. It's honestly a bit over the top, but in the best way possible!
