Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ay!!! Ay!!!
Ay ay ay ay ay
Que pena que se me a muerto el canario
Ay Que pena que se me a muerto el canario
Ay Que pena que se me a muerto el canario
Ay Que pena que se me a muerto el canario

M U S I C A

Era la alegría de mi calle
La banda sonora de mi hogar
Todas las mañanas en el balcón
Se formaba la revolución

El canario estaba bien cuidao
Y vivía mejor que yo
Pero le llego la hora
Y el cielo se lo llevo

Ese personaje amarillo
Ese lindo pajarillo
Me ha dejado sola y aburrida
Y hasta las flores se han marchitado

Ay!!! Ay!!!
Ay ay ay ay ay
Que pena que se me a muerto el canario
Ay Que pena que se me a muerto el canario
Ay Que pena que se me a muerto el canario
Ay Que pena que se me a muerto el canario

M U S I C A

La culpa la tubo el
Que lo sacaba en el balcón
Y se le olvido meterlo
Y le dio una insolación

Ay Dios mío que triste
Y a quien le voy yo a dar alpiste
Ese pajarillo vacilón
Que me ha roto el corazón

Yo con su boca me dije
Cuando le vi estirar la pata
No se que voy hacer
Sin el sien el

Ay!!! Ay!!!
Ay ay ay ay ay
Que pena que se me a muerto el canario
Ay Que pena que se me a muerto el canario
Ay Que pena que se me a muerto el canario
Ay Que pena que se me a muerto el canario

M U S I C A

Antes cuando vivía
Los chiquillos me querían
Y ahora que se murió
Me quedo la soltería

Ay!!! Ay!!!
Ay ay ay ay ay
Que pena que se me a muerto el canario
Ay Que pena que se me a muerto el canario
Ay Que pena que se me a muerto el canario
Ay Que pena que se me a muerto el canario

M U S I C A F I N A L





Ay ay ay ay ay ay ayyyyy!!!!

Overall Meaning

The song "Se me murio el canario" by Jossie Esteban y La Patrulla 15 is a lamentation over the death of the singer's canary who was the life of his street and the background music of his home. The canary was a lively and cheerful creature who brought joy and excitement to his everyday life. The verse "Era la alegría de mi calle" and "La banda sonora de mi hogar" reveals the significant contribution the canary made in the life of the singer. He was well taken care of, but one day he died, and this led to a massive outpour of grief from the singer.


In the verse "La culpa la tubo el, que lo sacaba en el balcón y se le olvido meterlo y le dio una insolación," the singer blames himself for the death of the canary; he felt guilty for not taking good care of him. The persona is left heartbroken and lonely with no one to talk to, including the flowers that have wilted due to the absence of the canary. In the end, the singer fears he will become a spinster as, before the bird's death, the children in the area loved him, but they no longer find the area exciting since his death.


Overall, the song is more than just about the death of a canary; it represents how something seemingly trivial like a bird could hold a vital position in our daily life, and losing it could signify the end of significant relationships or activities that were previously dependent on that little creature.
