Aulili
Malú Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Te siento dentro como una espinita clavada
Que no me deja respirar, tanto y por dentro
Voy taciturna y sin pensar
Es el veneno que me das

Duele tenerte y no tenerte, duele
Tú habitas en mi mente y duele
Saber como hay que amarte por ser libre y por ser aire
Tú eres, tan tuyo y tan de nadie
Y duele, no somos los de antes, sabes
No controlo mis ganas, mójate conmigo el alma
Las fragancias, de la arabia son las redes que me atrapan
Y me duele, ay me duele

Aulilí li lila
Aulilí li lila, aulilí li lila
Aulila
Aulilí li lila
Aulilí li lila, aulilí li lila
Aulila

Y hoy te presentas pidiendo guerra y compasión
Pero para mí el calvario ya acabó
Me dices que rondas mi calle
Que siempre vas de borrachera
Que tú quieres volver conmigo
Que siempre alumbraras mis noches
Para que duermas conmigo

Duele tenerte y no tenerte, duele
Tú habitas en mi mente y duele
Saber como hay que amarte por ser libre y por ser aire
Tú eres tan tuyo y tan de nadie
Y duele, no somos los de antes, sabes
No controlo mis ganas, mójate conmigo el alma
Las fragancias, de la arabia son las redes que me atrapan
Y me duele, ay me duele

Aulilí li lila
Aulilí li lila, aulilí li lila
Aulila
Aulilí li lila




Aulilí li lila, aulilí li lila
Aulila

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Malú's song "Aulili" are emotionally charged, expressing the pain and confusion that comes with loving someone who is both captivating and difficult to hold onto. The singer describes feeling this person inside of them like a thorn, making it difficult to breathe and causing inner turmoil. Despite the pain, the singer cannot help but be drawn to this person and their wild spirit, even though they are not entirely theirs. The singer acknowledges that things have changed between them but cannot control their own desire to be close to this person, whose intoxicating scent pulls them in like a trap.


The chorus of the song, with its repetitive "Aulilí li lila" refrain, adds to the sense of being caught up in something larger than oneself, like a cycle of pain and desire that cannot be broken. The second verse reveals that the person in question has returned, asking for forgiveness and offering promises of love and devotion. But even as the singer is tempted by these words and the warm familiarity of their presence, they know deep down that the pain of being with this person is too much to bear.


Overall, "Aulili" is a powerful and relatable song about the complexities of love and longing, and the way that difficult relationships can keep us trapped in patterns of desire and pain.
