Besame Morenita
Pedro Fernández Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ay ay ay ay
Mírame, mírame, quiéreme, quiéreme, besame morenita
Que me estoy muriendo por esa boquita
Tan jugosa y fresca y tan coloradita
Como una manzana dulce y madurita
Que me esta diciendo no muerdas tan duro no seas goloso
Y chupa que chupa que es mas sabroso
Y dale un abrazo a tu morenita
Que me estas pidiendo beso que besa la condenada
Que ese mordisco no sabe nada así me lo dice mi morenita

Mirame, quiéreme, besame morenita




Mirame, quiéreme, besame morenita
Mirame, quiéreme, besame morenita

Overall Meaning

He urges her to look at him, love him, and kiss him because he is dying for her juicy, fresh, and rosy lips, which he compares to a sweet and ripe apple. He acknowledges her playful resistance to his biting and encourages her to keep kissing him because it is more delicious. He asks for a hug from his "morenita," a term of endearment for a dark-skinned woman, and explains that she is asking him to kiss her because she is an expert kisser. He repeats his plea for her to look at him, love him, and kiss him morenita.


The lyrics of Besame Morenita are a classic expression of love and desire that reflect the traditional values and customs of Mexican society. The song's romantic and sensual tone, combined with its catchy melody and rhythmic beat, make it a popular dance tune in Latin America. The lyrics also reinforce gender roles by emphasizing the man's pursuit and the woman's coquettish resistance, and by objectifying the woman's physical attributes.
