Cerezo Rosa
Banda Sinaloense Los Recoditos Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

En el jardín de los cerezos
Cortaste niña aquella flor
Las perfumaste con tus besos
Y tu candor

Pero te fuiste de mi vera
Y ya no sé si volverás
Flor de cerezo en primavera

En dónde estas

Aquella tarde probé
De las cerezos la miel
En la quietud del jardín
De los cerezos en flor

Y prometiste volver
A mi florido vergel
Cerezo rosa sin ti
No quiero amor

Así esperando tu regreso
Hice un altar de nuestro amor
En el jardín de los cerezos
En plena flor

Aquella tarde probé
De las cerezos la miel
En la quietud del jardín
De los cerezos en flor

Y prometiste volver
A mi florido vergel

Cerezo rosa sin ti
No quiero amor

Overall Meaning

The song "Cerezo Rosa" by Banda Sinaloense Los Recoditos tells a story of a love that has been lost. The first verse describes a girl cutting a flower from a cherry blossom tree, and perfuming it with her kisses and innocence. However, she has left and the singer does not know if she will return. He asks the question "Flor de cerezo en primavera, En dónde estas" meaning "Cherry blossom flower in the spring, where are you?" The second verse describes the singer tasting the honey from the cherry trees in the quiet of the garden, and the girl promising to return to his garden of flowers. The pre-chorus repeats the line "Cerezo rosa sin ti, No quiero amor" meaning "Cherry blossom without you, I do not want love." The singer is waiting for her to come back and has created a shrine to their love in the garden of cherry blossoms, which are in full bloom.

The lyrics are filled with metaphors, mainly centered around the cherry blossom tree. The cherry blossom, or sakura, is a symbolic flower of Japan that represents the beauty and fragility of life. It also is a symbol of love, representing the fleeting nature of love and how it can be over in an instant. The cherry blossom tree only blooms for a few weeks and then dies, just like how love can be gone in a moment. The cherry blossom also represents new beginnings and hope, which is what the singer is searching for in his lost love.

Overall, "Cerezo Rosa" is a beautiful and poetic song that perfectly captures the emotions of a lost love. The use of metaphor and imagery adds to the depth and beauty of the lyrics, making it a truly memorable song.
