The basic symbolism of the song is that love wins and conquers all and everyone.
The song is written in the first face of the point of view. The tone is angry and sad because the speaker is ashamed of letting someone find himself between him and his love. He is angry with the man who took his love, though he does not blame the other for the fall of his love. Phyche, the main character, seeks love. She finds it but does not recognize it, which makes Cupid get upset and leaves. Phyche gets three tasks from her mother Venus, which she has to fill in to get him back. The gods help her in the task.
In addition to this, there are also symbols:
Phyche-Soul
Venus-Love
Royal Shepherd - Minerva and Juno
as well as the archetypal picture of falls, when Phyche of the princess becomes a servant because she has to perform tasks.
