Ely Guerra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Si te dicen que yo soy una flor azul, no les creas
Si te cuentan que soy amorosa
Si te dicen que soy deleitosa, oh no, no les creas
Si te dicen que soy mas bonita que tu, no les creas
Si te llega el rumor de mi suave calor, no les creas
Él sabe, él sabe bien, no hay porque preocuparse más
Tuu tuu tuu tu tu, son tú y él sin más
Tuu tuu tuu tu tu, no lo pienses más
Tuu tuu tuu tu tu
Si te insisten que soy más bonita que tú, no les creas
Si te llega el rumor de mi suave pasión, no les creas
Si te dicen que soy amorosa
Si te cuentan que soy deleitosa
Si si te cuentan que voy color rosa
Si te dicen, si te cuentan que yo, no les creas
No, no les creas, no, no les creas, no, no les creas
Tuu tuu tuu tu tu, déjalo pasar
Tuu tuu tuu tu tu, son tú y él, sin más
Tuu tuu tuu tu tu no, no, no lo pienses más
Tuu tuu tuu tu tu
The lyrics to Ely Guerra's song "Mas Bonita" speak about the damaging effects of comparison and jealousy in a romantic relationship. The song begins with the singer acknowledging the existence of rumors about her supposed beauty and alluring personality, but pleading with her partner not to believe them. These rumors are likely coming from a third party trying to drive a wedge between the couple. The repetition of the phrase "no les creas" (don't believe them) reinforces the singer's plea.
As the song progresses, the singer becomes more confident, assuring her partner that he knows there's no need to worry. The catchy choral refrain "tú tú tú tú, déjalo pasar" (let it pass) urges the couple to not give credence to the rumors and focus on their relationship instead. The closing lines of the song emphasize this point, with a final repetition of "no les creas" and the simple phrase "tú y él, sin más" (you and him, nothing more).
