Hoja En Blanco

Majo Aguilar's song 'Hoja En Blanco' is a poignant exploration of lost love and the enduring pain of unfulfilled dreams. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a love that was once cherished but ultimately left behind. The song begins with the singer reminiscing about a past relationship that she cannot forget, despite the passage of time. The departure of her lover on a train symbolizes the end of their shared dreams and the beginning of a long, sorrowful separation. This imagery of a train taking away their childhood promises underscores the finality and sadness of their parting.

As the song progresses, the singer reveals the depth of her longing and the unanswered questions that haunt her. She returns to her hometown only to learn that her former lover has married someone else. This revelation is a crushing blow, and she is left to grapple with her emotions, seeking solace even from the moon, which she believes understands her pain. The moon's attempt to hide reflects the singer's own desire to escape the harsh reality of her unrequited love.

The chorus, with its repeated exhortation to 'fly, fly in another direction,' serves as both a farewell and a wish for her former lover's happiness, even as she acknowledges that her dreams will always be intertwined with his. The metaphor of a 'blank page' in a letter she received symbolizes the emptiness and lack of closure she feels. Despite moving on with another love, the singer admits that she will always carry the memory of her past love, singing a 'sad song' and crying for what could have been. This song is a heartfelt expression of the enduring impact of lost love and the bittersweet nature of moving forward while still holding on to the past.
