Sexteto Manaure Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Era cumbia muy bonito!! Cerca de la bahía.
Era cumbia muy bonito!! Cerca de la bahía.
Me acaricia la brisa salada que bota el mar caribe
La gaviota se para cansada sobre del dividivi
Lairara lairara lairara lairara lairaray
Era cumbia muy bonito!! Cerca de la bahía
Una ola que iba y venia me contó maravillas
Me contó la batalla que tuvo el almirante Padilla,
Debajo del trupillo guajiro estuve charlando un día,
Era cumbia muy bonito!! Cerca de la bahía
Era cumbia muy bonito!! Cerca de la bahía
Quisiera pasear con mi novia la sabana Joaquira,
Y también navegar noche y día por sus aguas marinas
Esta noche la voy a pasar debajo del trupillo
En mi wacho tendido en la arena
Debajo del trupillo
En tus brazos muy linda morena
Debajo del trupillo Debajo del trupillo Debajo del trupillo
Debajoooo debajo nomás
Esta noche Esta noche Esta noche
Vamos rarocote!!! Habla el comandante.El joven castillo.

As the singer talks, he reveals the historical battle fought by Admiral Padilla, giving an insight into the history of the region.
The song conveys the singer's desire to explore the region's beauty with his lover, expressing a desire to walk through the Joaquira plains and sail on the marine waters day and night. As the night falls, the singer imagines spending the night under the same trupillo tree, in his hammock, with his lover by his side. The song concludes with a cheerful shout-out, conveying the energy and spirit of the region.
Overall, the song portrays the beauty of the Guajira region, its history, and the singer's love for the land and his lover.
