Despecho Montuno
Daiquiri Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
lamentos de un triste montuno
de tantos acordes hay uno
entrando conmigo al casino
hoy mi tristeza la voy a jugar
pues tengo el corazon herido
y es que ademas nada puedo apostar
contigo todo lo he perdido
Con letra de amores fatales
despecho rockola y cancion
te escondes en mi corazon
te quiero arrancar y no sales
ya ni siquiera lloro tu traicion
y dueles como mil puñales
y es que ademas nada puedo apostar
contigo todo lo he perdido
Un lamento
es lo que puedo jugar y apostar
hoy no siento
esa emocion de aquel que va a ganar
suelto en la mesa
la ultima carta que puedo jugar
rey de tristezas
de cara fieltro debo poñar
Me marcho lleno de canciones
volvi a ganarme tu recuerdo
tambien tus fichas los danzones
pues cuando les apuesto pierdo
y es que el montuno me sige otra vez
con ese acorde yo me acuerdo
y es que ademas nada puedo apostar
contigo todo lo he perdido
Solo cada uno
si juegas un despecho en el montuno
te digo yo
Solo cada uno
si juegas un despecho en el montuno
te digo yo
Solo cada uno
si juegas un despecho en el montuno
te digo yo
Solo cada uno
si juegas un despecho en el montuno
te digo yo
Me sigen por todo el camino
lamentos de un triste montuno
de tantos acordes hay uno
entrando conmigo al casino
hoy mi tristeza la voy a jugar
pues tengo el corazon herido
y es que ademas nada puedo apostar
contigo todo lo he perdido
The lyrics of Daiquiri's "Despecho Montuno" depict the agony of heartbreak amidst the backdrop of a casino. The singer is haunted by the melodic strains of a mournful "montuno" (a popular Cuban music genre) as he makes his way through the casino. He decides to wager his sorrow away, but unfortunately, he is unable to bet anything since he has lost everything to his former lover. The song is filled with poignant lyrics describing the pain of lost love, as well as a sense of desperation as the singer is willing to take his chances and gamble his emotions away.
The singer describes the pain he feels as he tries to forget his former lover, who continues to linger in his heart. He sings about the "fatal loves" that have brought him to this point of despair, and his desire to rid himself of this misery. He has lost all hope of reconciliation and feels as though his heart has been shattered into a million pieces, and it is now evident that he has nothing left to play the game of love with. Even the last card he played (his love), did not win him the game.
