The song "Ruperta" by Eva Ayllón tells the story of Ruperta, a woman who has been abandoned by her lovers due to her promiscuous behavior. The lyrics mention that her "saint has turned against her," meaning her luck has run out and she can no longer find a husband. The chorus repeats the phrase "Ruperta has been left behind," emphasizing the idea that Ruperta has finally reached a point of no return in terms of finding love.
The verses introduce two of Ruperta's former lovers - Arcadio, who loved her but ultimately deemed her "too black and unrepentant," and a white man who dreamed of being with her, but was unable to win her heart. The lyrics also mention a Chinese man who pursued Ruperta, possibly indicating that she was open to relationships with people of all backgrounds.
Overall, the song portrays Ruperta as a woman who has been let down by her own behavior and is now facing the consequences of her actions. The repetition of the chorus underscores the finality of Ruperta's situation - she is alone and unlikely to find love again.
