Jose Luis Perales Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Aquellos besos de mi amor primero.
No volverán Rosalí
Ni volveré a ser feliz bajo tu techo.
No volverán Rosalí
Nuestras miradas a guardar silencio.
No volverán Rosalí
Ni volveré a ser feliz bajo tu techo.
Si quieres recordarme, recuérdeme.
Si puedes olvidarme, olvídame.
Si buscas un amigo, llámame,
Te ayudaré a vivir.
Si buscas otro amor, lo encontrarás.
Si luchas por la vida, triunfarás.
Si quieres sonreír, sonreirás,
Serás feliz. Pero
No volverán Rosalí
Aquellas hojas que arrastraba el viento.
No volverán Rosalí
Ni volveré a ser feliz bajo tu techo.
Si quieres recordarme, recuérdeme.
Si puedes olvidarme, olvídame.
Si buscas un amigo, llámame,
Te ayudaré a vivir.
Si buscas otro amor, lo encontrarás.
Si luchas por la vida, triunfarás.
Si quieres sonreír, sonreirás,
Serás feliz.
The lyrics of José Luis Perales's song Rosalí talks about a lost love between the two main characters, Rosalí and the singer. The first verse declares that those first kisses and moments of young love will never return, nor will the happiness they shared under the same roof. The second verse speaks of the silence that fell between the couple and how it will never be broken. The chorus offers some advice to Rosalí, suggesting that she should remember him if she wants to, but if she can forget him easily, she should do that. The singer offers to be Rosalí's friend if she needs one or wants to live life with someone, but he also urges her to find a new love if that is what she wants. The singer's final sentiment is that the things they shared before, like the falling leaves and happiness under one roof, are gone and will never return.
The overall message of the song Rosalí is that love is fleeting and that even the intense, passionate moments of love don't last forever. The singer's reassuring voice and encouraging words suggest that moving on and finding new love is the best way to be happy, and that memories of the past should not hold us back.
