La Bikina is a song originally composed by Rubén Fuentes, who was best known for contributing to mariachi music. In Disney media, it was included in the Spanish-language soundtrack of Coco performed in a pop version by Karol Sevilla. The song tells the story of a lonely and arrogant woman abandoned by a man she loved (likely inspired by Imelda who felt arrogant after Héctor abandoned her in the film).
Lyrics[]
Solitaria camina la Bikina
La gente se pone a murmurar
Dicen que tiene una pena
Dicen que tiene una pena que la hace llorar
Altanera, preciosa y orgullosa
No permite la quieran consolar
Pasa luciendo su real majestad
Pasa, camina, los mira sin verlos jamás
La Bikina tiene pena y dolor
La Bikina no conoce el amor
Altanera preciosa y orgullosa
No permite la quieran consolar
Dicen que alguien ya vino y se fue
Dicen que pasa las noches llorando por él
La Bikina tiene pena y dolor
La Bikina no conoce el amor
Altanera, preciosa y orgullosa
No permite la quieran consolar
Dicen que alguien ya vino y se fue
Dicen que pasa las noches llorando por él
Dicen que pasa las noches llorando por él
Dicen que pasa las noches llorando por él
All alone, la Bikina walks by
People start to talk
They say she is in pain
They say she is in pain, and pain makes her cry
Haughty, beautiful, and proud
She doesn't want their pity
She walks by flaunting her royal grandeur
She walks by, looks at them, but never really sees
La Bikina, she feels sorrow and pain
La Bikina, she has never found love
Haughty, beautiful, and proud
She doesn't want their pity
They say that someone has come and gone away
They say she spends her nights crying for him
La Bikina, she feels sorrow and pain
La Bikina, she has never found love
Haughty, beautiful, and proud
She doesn't want their pity
They say that someone has come and gone away
They say she spends her nights crying for him
They say she spends her nights crying for him
They say she spends her nights crying for him
Trivia[]
- The song was also performed by Jaime Camil (who voiced Papá in the English version of Coco) with Mariachi Divas during the two-night event, "Coco: A Live-to-Film Concert Experience" at the Hollywood Bowl which lasted from November 8 to November 9, 2019. Thus, this is the first time a cast member from the English-language version of Coco has performed a song included in the film's Spanish-language soundtrack.
