Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Gipsy Kings' song "Bem Bem Maria" are about a man pleading with his lover not to leave him. He calls her "mujer mia" (my woman) and begs her to stay, saying "tu no me dejas" (don't leave me). He compares her to a small child who needs to be taken care of, saying "igual que una chiquitana" (like a little one). Despite his pleas, he feels like she is getting ready to abandon him and is trying to come to terms with it, saying "ya cerca ya la abandono" (already close to abandoning her). The repetition of "bem bem bem maria" throughout the song is a sort of refrain or chorus, expressing the depth of his affection for her.


The lyrics are sung in Spanish with a strong Flamenco influence, reflecting the Gipsy Kings' heritage. The song is full of emotion and passion, which is a hallmark of flamenco music, as well as the Gipsy Kings' unique sound which blends traditional flamenco with pop and Latin rhythms.

I have this as my alarm. I look in the mirror like Brendan Fraser did and do a little shimmy before blowing a kiss to myself and starting my day.
