Su Nombre En Mi Cuaderno (feat. Josenid)
Makano
The Heartache of Young Love and Moving On
The song "Su Nombre En Mi Cuaderno" by Makano featuring Josenid is a poignant narrative about the pain of young love and the struggle to move on. The lyrics tell the story of a young girl whose love interest has been moved to another school by his parents, who are unaware of the deep feelings she harbors for him. The girl's friend, presumably Josenid, expresses empathy, knowing all too well the pain of unrequited love and the difficulty of forgetting someone who has left a significant mark on one's heart.
The recurring line, 'Todavía llevo su nombre en mi cuaderno,' which translates to 'I still carry his name in my notebook,' symbolizes the girl's inability to let go of her feelings. The notebook, a personal item often used in school, represents her private world where the memories and the name of her beloved remain etched. Despite the physical separation, her emotional attachment persists, and she is left to grapple with her longing and sorrow.
Makano, in the role of a supportive friend, offers words of encouragement, assuring her that the pain will eventually subside. He acknowledges the shared experience of heartache, suggesting that time and resilience will help her heal. The song captures the universal experience of first love and the bittersweet process of moving on from a love that was never fully realized.
