Julieta Venegas Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Desde el golfo de México al pacifico
vengo con el remedio a tu soledad
traigo mango Manila , traigo chile piquen
por favor no te alejes , estoy aquí.

Desde las cordilleras a la capital
llevo sal en los labios y en mic corazón
traigo noches y días , el principio y el fin

por favor no te alejes , estoy aquí

Traigo con migo
traigo mi corazón
traigo tu corazón

Lo tuyo , lo mío
traigo mi corazón
traigo tu corazón Ay
traigo mi corazón
traigo tu corazón

Traigo mango Manila traigo chile piquin
por favor no te alejes estoy aquí

Traigo con migo
traigo mi corazón
traigo tu corazón

Lo tuyo , lo mío
traigo mi corazón
traigo tu corazón Ay

traigo mi corazón
traigo tu corazón

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Julieta Venegas's song El Sueño del Caimán reveal the artist's desire to offer comfort to someone who feels lonely. She expresses her willingness to be there for this person, bringing with her not just physical offerings like Manila mangoes and piquin chili peppers, but also emotional ones such as the nights and days, the beginning and the end. By emphasizing these contrasts, Venegas suggests that she has everything this person needs to alleviate their solitude.

Moreover, Venegas highlights her own vulnerability by stating that she brings her heart and the heart of the person she wants to comfort. In doing so, she is essentially opening up to this person, asking them to reciprocate the trust by not distancing themselves from her. Finally, the repetition of the phrase "traigo mi corazón, traigo tu corazón" reinforces the message that she is not just a visitor, but someone who has a strong bond with the person she wants to help.
