In her native town of Rosario, Sinaloa, Beltrán completed her secretarial studies while she participated in many singing competitions. She then moved to Mexico City where she was discovered while working at the radio station XEW, and never went back to Rosario again.
She married Alfredo Leal, a matador and film actor, and with him had two children: María Elena Leal, who is also a singer, and José Leal. She entered the world of film in 1954 starring in El tesoro de la muerte. After participating in dozens of films, most of them musicals, she obtained a role in the telenovela Mi rival with Saby Kamalich. In 1976 and 1984 she hosted the musical shows Noches tapatías and El estudio de Lola Beltrán respectively.
Beltrán is still considered with Lucha Reyes the most successful ranchera-music singer of all time. She was the first ranchera singer to perform at the Palacio de Bellas Artes. She also performed at the Olympia music hall in Paris, the Tchaikovsky Hall of Moscow and the Conservatory of Leningrad (now Saint Petersburg) in the former Soviet Union.
Soon after recording Disco del Siglo with Lucha Villa and Amalia Mendoza "La Tariácuri" (produced by Juan Gabriel) she died of a massive pulmonary embolism at the Ángeles hospital of Mexico City.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Así te metes tú, poquito a poco
Podríamos decir que apenas te conozco
Y ya te llevo en mí, como algo de mi todo
Ya me haces falta tú como el azul al cielo
Estoy ligada a ti como el calor al fuego
Me hiciste revivir, me diste fé y consuelo
Trajiste para mí... cariño nuevo.
Me alivie del dolor que otro amor dejó
Dentro de mí...
Ya me haces falta tú como el azul al cielo
Estoy ligada a ti como el calor al fuego
Me hiciste revivir, me diste fé y consuelo
Trajiste para mí... cariño nuevo!

The singer acknowledges that they barely know this person, but they already carry them within their being, as if they are an essential part of themselves. This connection is described as a necessity, just like the sky needs the blue color and fire needs heat.
The second verse expresses the singer's longing and reliance on this newfound love. They convey a sense of being inseparable, comparing their bond to the inextricable relationship between the sky and its blue hue or fire and its warmth. This person has brought them back to life, giving them faith and comfort. The phrase "cariño nuevo" is introduced, which can be interpreted as the new love that this person has brought into their life.
In the chorus, the singer expresses hope that this "cariño nuevo" will heal the pain caused by a previous love. They rely on this new love to alleviate the hurts and scars left by a past relationship, seeking solace and relief from the emotional distress within them.

NEW DARLING
Just as on loose soil, moisture penetrates
That's how you get in, little by little

And I already carry you in me, as something of my everything

You brought for me, darling, new darling

Que época tan hermosa ... Buena producción .. y nuestra cultura mexicana en todo su esplendor .... La perdida de estos valores se le debe al Reguetón y a tanta música basura y a estas generaciones que perdieron el interés por la cultura mexicana
