Soledad Lyrics in English by Antonio Hernandez, Mayel Jimenez, Andy CM
Madrugar literally means "to wake up early" or "to get up at dawn." While it seems simple, it carries a unique cultural nuance in Spanish that makes it interesting.
In the context of this song, the phrase "me llama para madrugar" (she calls me to wake up early) is used in a more suggestive, almost playful way. It implies that the calls are for late-night or early-morning encounters, hinting at a casual relationship focused on physical intimacy rather than deep emotional connection. This double meaning makes the word particularly enticing and memorable.
This song, "Soledad" by Antonio Hernandez featuring Mayel Jimenez and Andy CM, is a raw look at a relationship built on loneliness and a desire to escape. The lyrics tell a story of someone who's been hurt before, leading them to seek out casual encounters rather than love. They say, "ella me dice que no quiere nada que sólo me llama para madrugar ella no quiere amar su soledad le encienden y nacionales" [she tells me she doesn't want anything, she only calls me to stay up late, she doesn't want to love, her loneliness turns her on and makes her national]. It's a pretty blunt take on using physical intimacy to cope with being alone.
The song really digs into this idea of being a refuge for someone who's tired of love. Lines like "me hicieron daño y no se enamoró más" [they hurt me and I didn't fall in love anymore] explain why the person is so guarded. The singer becomes the one who offers adventure and a distraction from a "vida loca" [crazy life], even changing "el amor por marihuana" [love for marijuana]. It's a sad but honest portrayal of finding comfort in temporary connections when real love feels too risky.
