Noche de Cumbia
Rigo Tovar Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

En una noche de cumbia,
Fue cuando yo la encontre y al
Tierno calor de vela su boca roja bese.

Yo le entregue mi cariño, ella medio su quereeeeeer.

Pero al terminar la cumbia, nunca mas la volvi a ver.
Pero al terminar la cumbia, nunca mas la volvi a ver.

Ya no llores corazon, corazon no llores mas.

Que en otra noche de cumbia, ella quizas volvera.
Que en otra noche de cumbia, ella quizas volvera.

(Puente - Musical - Intermedio)
Ya no llores corazon, corazon no llores mas.

Que en otra noche de cumbia, ella quizas volvera.
Que en otra noche de cumbia, ella quizas volvera.





Que en otra noche de cumbia, ella quizas volvera.
Que en otra noche de cumbia, ella quizas volvera.

Overall Meaning

The song "Noche de Cumbia" by Rigo Tovar is a story of a chance encounter with a girl during a night of dancing to the rhythm of cumbia. The lyrics describe the singer's feelings as he finds and kisses the girl with the bright red lips, and how she reciprocates with half of her love. However, their encounter is fleeting, and they part ways at the end of the night, never to see each other again. The chorus offers consolation to the singer and reassures him that perhaps he will find the girl again in another night of cumbia dancing, urging him not to cry.


The song's lyrics are evocative of the nostalgia and longing that come with romantic memories, particularly those shaped by music and dance. The energetic beat of cumbia is often associated with sensuality, joy, and a communal spirit rooted in Latin America. Tovar's lyrics capture that spirit while also conveying the melancholic reality of love that could have been.
