Morena
Roxee B Lyrics

In Roxee B's song "Morena," the lyrics speak about the struggles of having feelings for someone who doesn't reciprocate them. The first stanza reiterates the phrase "Mamahalin mo rin, mo rin ako" three times, which means "You will love me too, too, someday." This repetition sets up the theme of the entire song, which is about wanting to be loved in return. The line "Dahil iba magmahal ang isang morena" means "Because a morena (a dark-skinned woman) loves differently." This sets up the idea that the singer's love is unique and special but that the person they're in love with doesn't see it.

The second stanza reveals the singer's internal struggle as they are frustrated with themselves for loving someone who doesn't love them back. The lines "Inlove na inlove kasi ako sa iyo" mean "I am really in love with you." However, the singer is also feeling impatient and restless, as demonstrated by the lines "Inip na inip... sa pagtingin mo" which translate to "I am so annoyed waiting for you to notice me." The third stanza highlights the singer's frustration with seeing the person they love admiring other people. The line "Baliw na baliw ka sa lahi ng iba" means "You're crazy about the race of others," while "Hibang na hibang ka sa mga kutis nila" means "You're infatuated with their skin." Finally, the line "Silaw na silaw... sa nakapostura" means "You're blinded by their posture," highlighting how the person the singer loves is more attracted to external qualities rather than the singer's unique love.
