No me digas que no
Martirio Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tengo un barco de vela
Que es de miel y canela,
De plata y cristal.
Un barquito de suenos
Que es la envidia del mar.
Y sin que nadie lo sepa
En ese barco encantado
Que nadie lo ve.
Ese carino es el tuyo
Que es mi razon y mi orgullo,
Y mi gloria y mi fe.
No tengas celos de mi,
Que es un pecado mortal
Eso que estas tu pensando
Y vas pregonando
De mi voluntad.
No tengas celos de mi,
Ni dudes de mi querer,
Que si yo vivo y si muero
Es porque te quiero
De veras, gache.
Que yo ati
Nunca te puedo enganar
Y de mi
Tu nunca debes dudar.
Vente tu, mi moreno,
Vente a Puerta Tierra,
Que hay un barco de guerra
Y lo vamos a ver,
Vente tu, mi moreno,
Y veras tu que bien.
Y luego los dos juntitos
Daremos un paseito
Y tomaremos un chatito
De vino del Tres,
Vente tu, mi gitano
Que este vinillo es muy bueno
Y nos sentara bien.
No tengas celos de mi,
Que es un pecado mortal
Eso que estas tu pensando
Y vas pregonando
De mi voluntad.
No tengas celos de mi,
Ni dudes de mi querer,
Que si yo vivo y si muero
Es por que te quiero
De veras, gache.
Que yo a ti
Nunca te puedo enganar
Y de mi
Tu nunca debes dudar.
The song "No me digas que no" by Martirio talks about a secret love that the singer has hidden away in a boat made of honey and cinnamon, silver and glass. The boat is a symbol of her dreams and desires, and her love is locked inside it, unseen by anyone else. The lyrics suggest that the singer's lover may be jealous or doubtful of her feelings, but she insists that he has nothing to worry about, as she loves him truly and would never deceive him.
The singer also invites her lover to come with her to Puerta Tierra, where they will see a warship and take a stroll together while enjoying a glass of wine. All throughout the song, the singer reassures her lover of her loyalty and devotion, while also expressing her own deep passion and desire.
Overall, "No me digas que no" is a romantic and evocative song that uses metaphor and imagery to create a vivid picture of a forbidden love. Its lyrics suggest that love can be both beautiful and complicated, and that sometimes we must keep our deepest desires and feelings hidden away, even from those we love.
