Overall Meaning

The lyrics of André Rieu's song "La Paloma" are primarily in Spanish, with a smattering of English phrases here and there. The song is a plea from the singer to a woman he seems to be enamored with. He calls her "chinita," which is a term of endearment in Spanish that means "little Chinese girl." He pleads with her to give him her love and to come with him to his home. The repetition of the lines emphasizes the singer's desire to be with her.


There are a number of possible interpretations of the song's lyrics, but one possible explanation is that the singer is expressing his love for someone who is not from his own culture, hence the term "chinita." He may be asking her to come with him to his home, where he will introduce her to his family and community. The song has a romantic, playful tone, with the singer using endearing nicknames for the woman he is addressing.


Overall, "La Paloma" is a classic love song with a universal message of unrequited love and longing for someone. The lyrics are simple yet evocative, and the melody is catchy and memorable. It's a song that has been beloved for generations and will continue to be a classic for years to come.

*Ты голубка моя,
Как тебя я люблю!*
Чудо. Кого эта песня может оставить равнодушным?
Публика замечательна. И оркестр, и дирижер.
Она из тех, которые мы слушали с раннего детства и всю жизнь.
Разные исполнители, разные интерпретации, в разное время, а чувства те же.
