Historia de Una Niña

Ovidio Aguilar's song "Historia de Una Niña" tells a poignant and heart-wrenching story of a young girl who faces severe persecution from her mother due to her unwavering faith in God. The narrative begins with God calling the girl to follow His path, intending to use her for great things within the church. However, her mother, who is involved in other religions and has a dark disposition, vehemently opposes this divine calling. This sets the stage for a tragic conflict between the girl's faith and her mother's hostility.

The lyrics vividly describe the mother's violent attempts to prevent her daughter from attending church services. Despite the physical and emotional abuse, the girl remains steadfast in her faith, sneaking out at night to attend worship. Her mother, filled with rage, publicly humiliates and beats her, even drawing blood. The girl's suffering is profound, as she endures isolation and torment, yet she finds solace in her private moments of prayer and worship, speaking to God in her room.

The climax of the song occurs when the girl, sent on an errand by her mother, seizes the opportunity to attend a church service. There, she experiences a spiritual awakening, dancing and speaking in tongues, which enrages her mother further. The mother drags her home and beats her mercilessly. In her final moments, the girl speaks of being called by angels and expresses joy at the prospect of meeting God, ultimately dying in her mother's hands. The song concludes with a somber reflection on the girl's story, emphasizing her unwavering love for God and the powerful example she left behind.
