Nada es para siempre
El Papirri Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Cawalito del altiplano
pura pajita estas comiendo
dormidito como expediente
tei encontrado mi cawalito.
Nada es para siempre
tienes tu familia
que esta peleando
con esa mañosa
le llaman justicia.
Nada es para siempre
Tienes mucha fuerza
en la canchita
hacele un rosco al policía
mientras tanto
Jueves y domingo te lo vua llevar




fruta y pasankalla cuerito de chancho
con su bisturí cuando salgas.

Overall Meaning

In El Papirri's song "Nada Es Para Siempre," the lyrics describe a scene in which a person from the altiplano is peacefully eating pure straw while asleep, and the singer of the song has found this person's little horse. The chorus then says that nothing is forever, and though the person has a family that is fighting for justice, there is still much strength in the person. The verse ends with a call to action, encouraging the listener to stand up to the police and take control of their life.


The lyrics of this song have multiple layers of meaning. One interpretation could be that the singer is advocating for resilience in the face of adversity, and acknowledging that life is temporary and constantly changing. The line "nothing is forever" implies that everything is temporary and that it is important to make the best of every situation. Additionally, the line about the family fighting for justice suggests that there may be an ongoing struggle or conflict that the person in the song is facing, but that they still have the strength to face it.


One possible interpretation of the verse that encourages action against the police could be that the person in the song is marginalized and oppressed by authority figures, and the only way to gain control over their life is to stand up to them. The reference to "fruits and pasankalla" and "cuerito de chancho" could relate to traditional Andean foods, and the "bisturí" could refer to traditional medicine practices. Overall, the lyrics of "Nada Es Para Siempre" seem to be about resilience, strength, and the importance of taking action in the face of adversity.
