Maldita Señora
José Velez Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No podrás dejar así
El que yo te he dado
Pues lo recuperé
Aunque ya
Por ejemplo
El tiempo no volverá atrás
Maldita señora de la vida mía
Maldita señora de la vida mía
Maldita señora de la vida mía
Maldita señora de la vida mía
Maldita señora, tú serás y lo verás
No te extrañe ver que yo
Que otro como yo
Tenga un sentimiento
Más puro que la misma piedra
Tras la oscura frialdad de aquella
Vieja falsedad
Yo te di mi vida
Jamás lo debí pensar
Aléjate del otro ahora
O márchate con él
Aléjate del otro ahora
O márchate con él
Maldita señora de la vida mía
Maldita señora de la vida mía
Maldita señora de la vida mía
Maldita señora de la vida mía
Aléjate del otro ahora
O márchate
Aunque me lo ruegues
No te perdonaré
Porque entre nosotros
Nada queda que nos pudiera unir
Este amor absurdo
De enorme vanidad
Esta vida mía, tu orgullo y falsedad
No regreses nunca
No me llames amor, Dios mío
Maldita señora de la vida mía
Maldita señora de la vida mía
Maldita señora de la vida mía
Maldita señora de la vida mía
Maldita señora de la vida mía
Maldita señora de la vida mía
Maldita señora de la vida mía
Maldita señora de la vida mía
Maldita señora de la vida mía
Maldita señora de la vida mía
The lyrics of Jose Velez's song Maldita Señora express the pain and hurt of a man who has been betrayed by a woman he loved. The opening lines suggest a confrontation between the two where the woman is being accused of not valuing the love that the man had given her, and even though she might have thought that love was everything, he has now taken it back. The man is expressing his resolve to move on and continues to say that although the past cannot be changed, he will love her forever.
The repeated line 'Maldita Señora' translates to 'Cursed Lady' in English, and the man is addressing the woman as such, blaming her for his pain and the failed relationship. He warns her that she will see him again with someone else who has a more genuine heart than hers, and that she will regret the choices that she has made. The man feels that the woman has prioritized her pride and has been false throughout their relationship, and despite her attempts for reconciliation, he is unable to forgive her.
Overall, the song portrays the emotions that come with a love that has gone wrong and how difficult it is to move on from hurt caused by someone you trusted. It is a passionate and emotional song that expresses the power dynamic created in a love that has gone wrong.
