Perfume de Gardenia

by N/A
Perfume de gardenia
Tiene tu boca
Belissimos destellos
De luz en tu mirar
Tu risa es una rima
De alegres notas
Se mueven tus cabellos
Cual ondas de la mar
Tu cuerpo es una copia
De venus y siteres
Que envidian las mujeres
Cuando te ven pasar
Y llevas en el alma
La virginal pureza
Por eso es tu belleza
De un mistico candor
Perfume de gardenia
Tiene tu boca




Perfume de gardenia
Perfume del amor...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Bienvenido Granda's song "Perfume de Gardenia" describe the indescribable beauty of a woman who is being praised and admired by the singer. The first line of the song, "Perfume de gardenia tiene tu boca" translates to "Your mouth has the perfume of gardenia," an imagery that compares the scent of the woman's breath to the sweet fragrance of gardenia. The second line describes the woman's gorgeous eyes that shine with beautiful sparks of light.


The third line introduces the woman's laughter, which is compared to a joyful poem with happy notes. The fourth line portrays her hair as beautiful waves of the sea. The fifth and sixth lines compare the woman's body to the divine figures of Venus and Cynthia (known as Siteres in Spanish). The seventh line describes how women who see her become jealous of her beauty. The eighth line talks about the woman's pure soul, which is the reason for her mystical and pure beauty.


The chorus repeats the first two lines of the song and concludes that her mouth has the perfume of gardenia, which is the perfume of love. The song praises the woman’s beauty, using vivid and poetic imagery, with the repetition of peaceful and sublime gardenia perfume catching the eye.
