Pretendo de hacer un ramo

Rolando Alárcon's song 'Pretendo de hacer un ramo' is a poetic and heartfelt piece that delves into the themes of love and passion through the metaphor of creating a bouquet. The song begins with the intention of making a bouquet ('Pretendo de hacer un ramo') using flowers that symbolize passion. The choice of flowers like azucena (lily) and margarita (daisy) is significant, as these flowers often represent purity, innocence, and true love in various cultures. The repeated phrase 'viva mi amor' underscores the celebration and vitality of the singer's love.

The lyrics also highlight the emotional depth of the singer's feelings. The line 'porque los suspiros nacen del centro del corazón' (because sighs are born from the center of the heart) suggests that the emotions expressed are genuine and heartfelt. The sighs, or 'suspiros,' are a physical manifestation of the singer's deep affection and longing. This imagery of sighs coming from the heart adds a layer of sincerity and intensity to the song, making it clear that the love being described is profound and all-encompassing.

As the song progresses, the bouquet is almost complete, but it still lacks one final touch: 'ponerle por las orillas suspiros del corazón' (to place sighs from the heart around the edges). This final addition symbolizes the finishing touch of genuine emotion and passion, completing the bouquet and making it a true representation of the singer's love. The song beautifully captures the essence of love as something that is carefully crafted, deeply felt, and ultimately completed by the heartfelt emotions that surround it.
