El Que Pierde Una Mujer
Alberto Beltran Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
no sabe lo que gana
pues si se nos va un querer
otro vendra manana
dale amor a una mujer
y veras como te paga
o te engana o te empalaga
o se busca otro querer
que se mire en este espejo
yo nomas doy el consejo
por si alguien lo quiere seguir
si estas proximo a perder
no lo dejes pa manana
pues no sabe lo que gana
el que pierde a una mujer
el que no quiera sufrir
que se mire en este espejo
yo nomas doy el consejo
por si lo quiere seguir
si estas proximo a perder
no lo dejes pa manana
pues no sabe lo que gana
el que pierde a una mujer
The song "El Que Pierde una Mujer" by Alberto Beltrán is a poignant reminder of the value of love and the pain of losing it. The lyrics speak to the fact that those who lose a woman do not know what they are gaining, and that if one love slips away, another will come tomorrow. Alberto urges listeners to give love to a woman and see how she will either pay back with love, betray or become overly loving, or find another love. He warns that those who do not want to suffer should take a look at the mirror of this song and heed his advice, which is to not wait till tomorrow to take action if they are close to losing the one they love.
The lyrics are a reflection of the traditional Latin American machismo culture, where men are expected to exert their dominance over women. The song's message, on the other hand, subverts this notion, advocating for mutual respect and reciprocity in romantic relationships. The lyrics also suggest that men should cherish their partners and not take them for granted, or else they may end up without the love they crave.
