Verse 1
She has me here really nailed
Or: She has me here madly in love
Releasing my sorrows in a bar
Or: Letting out my regrets in a bar
Toasting for your love
She has me here abandoned
Drinking tequila to forget
And shake off the pain like this
Prechorus 1
Where are you, blessed woman?
Where have you gone?
Open a bit your heart
Let me love you, sweetheart
Come and take me out of this bar
Chorus 1
I'm nailed
Or: I'm madly in love
I'm hurt
I'm drowned in a bar
Or: I'm drowining in alcohol in a bar
Desperate
In my oblivion love
I'm drowned in a bar
Verse 2
I know that many look for you
That they court you in quantity
But that's not happiness
And my love never cracks
And my love will never ever fail you
Never, ever
Prechorus 2
Where are you, cursed woman?
Where have you gone?
Open a bit your heart
Let me love you, sweetheart
Come and take me out of this bar
Chorus 2
I'm nailed
I'm hurt
I'm drowned in a bar
Desperate
In my oblivion love
I'm drowned in a bar
Very desperate
Very far into oblivion
I'm drowned in a bar
Bridge
Let yourself be loved, love
I want to be your everything
And your heart
Come rescue me love
I want to be your sun
I want to be your sea
Verse 3
She has me here intoxicated
Crying with rage in a bar
Toasting for your love
She has me here really nailed
Drinking tequila to forget everything
It's not fair love
Chorus 3
Very desperate
Very far into oblivion
No, no, no, no, no
I'm drowned in a bar

SONG MEANING

"Clavado En Un Bar" plunges us into the smoky glow of a Mexican cantina, where the narrator is literally clavado – nailed in place – by heartbreak. Surrounded by empty tequila shots, he raises one toast after another to a lover who has vanished, pleading ¿Dónde estás? The rocking beat mirrors his swirling emotions: he feels herido (wounded), desesperado (desperate) and ahogado (drowning) in sorrow, yet he cannot bring himself to leave the bar that now doubles as his refuge and prison.

Beneath the raw guitar riffs, though, pulses an unbreakable hope. He reminds his absent love that endless suitors can never match a devotion that “nunca se raja” – never backs down. With every chorus he begs her to open her heart, rescue him, and let him be her sol and mar. Maná blends rock swagger with mariachi–tinged melodrama to paint a vivid picture of love’s power to both wound and redeem, turning a night of tequila–soaked despair into an unforgettable anthem of romantic persistence.
