Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
una tarde a tomar el té
hace tiempo lo esperaba
que ni siquiera lo pensé
Me sentía tan nervioso
que no lo podía creer
pero cuando entré a su casa
Perdón virginia te rompí la vajilla
Perdón virginia la vajilla te rompí
Perdón virginia te rompí la vajilla
Perdón virginia la vajilla te rompí
Después de ese acontecimiento
con virginia yo me disculpé
le dije que me perdonara
que no lo volvería hacer
yo seguía tan nervioso
que no lo podía creer
y cundo corrí mi brazo
la vajilla le desparramé
Perdón virginia te rompí la vajilla
Perdón virginia la vajilla te rompí
The song La vajilla de Virginia by La Mona Jimenez is a humorous and lighthearted take on a clumsy and nervous encounter between the singer and his hostess, Virginia. The opening verses establish the context of the visit, with Virginia inviting the singer to her house for tea after a long time waiting for the opportunity. The singer is overwhelmed by nerves and excitement, "que ni siquiera lo pensé" (that I didn't even think about it), a feeling that is reflected in the repetition of "Perdón Virginia" (Sorry Virginia) in the chorus.
The climax of the song occurs when the singer accidentally bumps into the table and breaks Virginia's china, a moment of hilarity that is repeated in the second verse when the singer makes the same mistake for a second time. Despite his apologies, Virginia can't help but laugh at the situation, showcasing the good-natured and forgiving attitude of the character. The song ends with the singer promising to be more careful and less clumsy in the future, a sentiment that is sure to resonate with many listeners.
