Usage Note
Letra covers the letter of the alphabet, a person's handwriting (tiene buena letra, she has good handwriting), and the lyrics of a song (la letra de la canción). Letra also appears in finance: una letra is a bill of exchange or promissory note. Do not confuse with carta (a written letter/correspondence) — letra is never used for a personal letter you post.
Examples
"No entiendo la letra de esta canción."
Natural Translation
I don't understand the lyrics of this song.
