Cosculluela's "Guaya" throws us right into a dramatic scene, starting with a nightmare! He wakes up to the crushing realization that his love is gone: "Escuché tu voz pero me decía / Disque tú ya no eras mia" [I heard your voice but it told me / That you were no longer mine].

But this isn't a sad breakup song. Instead, it's about a relentless pursuit. He's ready to go anywhere for her, no matter what: "Y si me dice que está por Ponce / En Ponce la busco" [And if she tells me she's in Ponce / I'll look for her in Ponce]. He's even willing to "cruzar la raya" [cross the line] to find her, promising that "hoy se guaya" [today we're going to 'guaya'] – a slang term for a wild party or a passionate encounter. The song is full of energy, talking about "mucho maleante, mucho maleanteo" [lots of thugs, lots of thugging] and "mucha bellaca y mucho bellaqueo" [lots of naughty girls and lots of naughtiness], setting the stage for a chaotic good time. He's clearly obsessed, even if she's with someone else, declaring, "Como yo no hay nadie que te ame" [There's no one who loves you like me].
