Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Niña
No me saques los colores
No ves que no traigo flores
Para ti
Pero, niña
No me llores
Niña
No me mires ni me toques

No puedo con esos ojos
Que se rompen
De mi niña
Cada noche

Deja que mis labios sean tu calma
Y enséñame el camino hasta ti
Dame una esperanza
Rompe una lanza por mí
Mi niña

No quiero besos que no sean en tus brazos
No quiero vida de la que no bebas tú
El fin de mis días
A tu lado
Y que a mis ojos
Vuelva la luz

Niña
Niña

Niña
Niña

Overall Meaning

The song "Nina" is an emotionally heavy and powerful story that sheds light on the harsh realities of the experiences of a young girl named Nina. At the beginning of the song, we are introduced to Nina, who has been forced to engage in sexual activities with older men in exchange for money. The singer delivers a monologue that tells Nina's story, starting from her dreams of becoming a doctor, to the traumatic event of being raped by her own father. The song then delves into scenes of Nina's life where she uses her body to make money, ultimately leading to a life of emptiness and self-hatred. The hopelessness and despair of Nina's life is highlighted, as she contemplates suicide and the fact that she is unable to find love or happiness.

The song attempts to shine a light on the experiences of women who are forced to degrade themselves out of desperation or circumstances beyond their control. The harsh realities that they face on a daily basis are overlooked and not given their due attention. The song highlights the dark underbelly of our society, where people such as Nina, are used and abused repeatedly without any hope of a better future. The song serves as a warning about the dangers of sexual exploitation and the toll it takes on those who fall into its clutches.
