Flor De Espino
Pedro Infante Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Que el viento la deshojó
Llevandose su secreto
Flor de espino se murió
No quiso tener amores
Cuando todos la quisieron
Ella se ha muerto por uno
La flor de espino se ha muerto
Ya la llevan a enterrar
Las flores no la cubrieron
Nadie le vino a rezar
La flor de espino se ha muerto
Ya la llevan a enterrar.
Cuentan que la flor de espino
Al cielo nunca llegó
Que quiso tanto en la tierra
Que a Dios nada le dejó.
Con velo blanco de novia
En su lecho le adornaron
Tanto sufrieron por ella
Que los hombres no lloraron.
La flor de espino se ha muerto
Ya la llevan a enterrar
Las flores no la cubrieron
Nadie le vino a rezar
La flor de espino se ha muerto
Ya la llevan a enterrar.
The song "Flor de Espino" tells the story of a woman who lived her life without any romantic relationships despite many suitors. She is compared to a rose that has withered away due to the wind carrying away its secrets. The lyrics suggest that she died because of an unrequited love that she held onto until the end. The woman is mourned by those who knew and loved her, but ultimately she was alone in life and in death. The lyrics evoke a sense of tragedy and regret, as if the woman missed out on something important by refusing to engage in love.
The imagery of the rose and the thorn bush (espino) is used throughout the song to symbolize the beauty and pain that come with love. The woman is described as the "flor de espino," suggesting that she was both attractive and guarded, like a rose growing amidst thorns. Her untimely death is not only a physical one but a metaphorical death of her spirit as well, because she refused to allow herself to experience love. The song touches on themes of longing, loneliness, and the importance of human connection.
