Miguel Aceves Mejia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No mas se le iba en puro llorar,
Dicen que no comia
Nomas se me iba en puro tomar
Juran que el mismo cielo
Se estremecia al oir su llanto
Como sufrio por ella
Que hasta en su muerte
Ayayayayai
Cantaba
Ayayayayai
Gemia
Ayayayayai
Cantaba
De pasion mortal
Moria
Que una paloma triste
Muy de mañana le va a cantar
A la casita sola
Con sus puertitas de par en par
Juran que esa paloma
No es otra cosa
Mas que su alma
Que todavia la espera
A que regrese la desdichada
Cucurrucucu
Paloma
Cucurrucucu
No llores
Las piedras jamas
Paloma
Que van a saber
De amores
Cucurrucucu
Cucurrucucu
Cucurrucucu
Paloma, ya no la llores
The lyrics of Miguel Aceves Mejia's song, "Cucurrucucu Paloma," speak of a heartbroken man who has lost his love. The lyrics are simple yet evocative, conveying the depth of his pain and longing. The first verse speaks of the man's sorrow and how he spends his nights crying and drinking. He is unable to eat and is consumed by his grief. The second verse speaks of the impact his grief has on others, with people claiming that the sky itself trembles at the sound of his tears. It is clear that the man loved deeply and suffered greatly as a result.
The chorus of "Cucurrucucu Paloma" is perhaps the most memorable part of the song, with the repeated "Ayayayayai" helping to convey the man's suffering. The lyrics speak of a lonely house with doors wide open, waiting for the return of the one he loves. The final lines suggest that the man believes his love will never return, but encourages the paloma (dove) not to cry anymore. The song is a powerful expression of love and loss, and the pain that can come with it.
