Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Nelson Henriquez's song "Muchacha de 15 Años" center on a plea to a 15-year-old girl to find herself a warm coat, as winter is approaching and she will feel the cold. The repeated "ay que tiririri, ay que tirijala" is a traditional Venezuelan greeting used to express excitement or happiness. The song then shifts to the singer professing his love for the young girl, who has "20 loves" already, but he is her 21st and asks her to marry him. The final lines reiterate the need for the girl to keep warm in the winter and the repetition of "ay que tiririri, ay que tirijala" serves as a catchy and upbeat conclusion to the song.


Overall, the song can be interpreted as a warning to a young girl about the harsh realities of life and a call to protect herself from potential harm, both physical and emotional. The singer also expresses his desire to protect and care for her, offering a sense of reassurance in a world that can be uncertain and frightening.
