Cuatro Rosas Estación

La Frontera's song 'Cuatro Rosas Estación' paints a vivid and haunting picture of a man returning to a place filled with memories and expectations, only to find desolation and betrayal. The lyrics open with the arrival of a man who was not expected, hinting at a sense of foreboding and unresolved tension. His muttered thoughts of vengeance set the tone for the unfolding drama. The imagery of the wind moving the barbed wire at Cuatro Rosas Estación adds to the sense of abandonment and desolation.

The man had left behind the woman he loved at this station, trusting that she would wait for him. However, upon his return, he finds only his loyal dog by his side, a poignant symbol of unwavering loyalty amidst human betrayal. The deserted inn and the empty cantina further emphasize the eerie and unsettling atmosphere. The man senses that something is amiss, a feeling that is confirmed as the story progresses.

The narrative takes a dramatic turn with the mention of a grand celebration, a wedding marked by the ringing of bells. However, this joyous occasion is abruptly interrupted by a gunshot, causing the bishop to halt the ceremony and the bride to flee. The repetition of 'Cuatro Rosas Estación' throughout the song serves as a haunting refrain, reminding the listener of the central location where love, betrayal, and vengeance converge. La Frontera's evocative storytelling and the melancholic tone of the music create a powerful and memorable ballad that lingers in the listener's mind.
