Siboney
Yo te quiero, yo me muero
Por tu amor
Siboney
En tu boca
La miel puso su dulzor

Ven a mi Que te quiero

Y que todo tesoro, eres tu para mi

Siboney
Al arrullo
De tus palmas, pienso en ti

Siboney, de mis sueños
Si no oyes la queja de mi voz
Siboney, si no vienes
Me morire de amor

Siboney, de mis sueños,
Te espero con ansia en mi caney
Porque tu eres el dueño
De mi amor, Siboney

Oye el eco de mi canto de cristal

No se pierda por entre el rudo
Manigual

Overall Meaning

In Buika's song "Siboney," the singer expresses her love and devotion for someone she calls Siboney. The first lines say "Siboney, I love you, I die for your love." The name Siboney is thought to refer to a town in the easternmost part of Cuba, but it's also a popular name in the Caribbean. In any case, the lyrics suggest a deep sense of passion and desire. The song continues with "In your mouth, honey put its sweetness," which could be interpreted as a metaphor for how sweet and desirable Siboney is to her.

The chorus of "Siboney" goes "Come to me because I want you, and you are my greatest treasure." The second verse says "While I listen to the sound of your palms, I think of you." The music throughout the song is slow, sensual, and rhythmic, with a mix of Spanish and Cuban influences. The lyrics convey a sense of longing and desire, and the singer seems to beg Siboney to come to her so that she can continue to love him.

Overall, "Siboney" is a romantic, passionate song that expresses intense feelings of love and longing for someone who is deeply desired but perhaps difficult to attain. The lyrics suggest a sense of vulnerability, desperation, and passion that many people can relate to in their own lives.
