Manea
José Larralde Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Pa que decir lo que pienso, solo,
Si naides piensa en lo mesmo, que otros.
Pa que alegar mis sentires,
Me duele tener que hacerlo,
Total al fin viá quedarme, solo.
El viento grita pa juera, solo,
Los hombres gritan pa dentro, todo,
Y si hay alguno que quiera
Hacer lo mesmo que el viento,
Verá que pronto se encuentra solo.
El hombre quiere gozarla, solo,
El hombre quiere que cinche otro.
Ninguno sienta verguenza,
Ninguno culpe a ninguno,
La culpa la tiene el hombre, solo.
Pa que decir lo que pienso, solo,
Si naides piensa en lo mesmo, que otro,
No ven que naides entiende,
Que naides tiene verguenza,




El hombre gusta enterrarse, solo,
Pa que alegar lo que pienso, solo...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Manea by José Larralde are about the difficulty of expressing oneself and being understood by others. The singer laments the fact that no one seems to share his thoughts or feelings, and that he is forced to keep them to himself. He recognizes that even though he may express himself, in the end, he will be alone with his thoughts. The wind can scream outside but everyone is screaming inwardly. The singer warns that if anyone tries to express themselves, they will soon find themselves alone like the wind.


The song also touches upon the desire for individuals to enjoy themselves at the expense of others. Everyone wants to have a good time, while wanting someone else to take the blame.

He concludes by repeating the opening lines, emphasizing the point that there is no point in expressing oneself if no one else understands.


Overall, Manea is a thought-provoking song about the human condition and the challenges of communication and empathy.
