Song Meaning of “El Vaso Derrama” by La Fiera de Ojinaga
In ‘El Vaso Derrama’ by La Fiera de Ojinaga, the narrator relates a story of heartbreak. They are reflecting on a love that has ended, recalling the silent moments they spent together during happier times. The narrator describes the pain they feel as their heart “splits like the glass from a window” — i.e., it has shattered, like a glass falling and spilling its contents. They tell their lost love to take all the love they had with them and not to let it remain on the ground, as it has done in the past. Now that the relationship has ended, they are left with pain and regret. But the narrator still wishes dearly that what has been spilled like a jar can be collected and returned to its rightful owner. They are looking for a way to reclaim the love that was let go and lost in the fall — to salvage what is left from the experience and keep the memories as an invaluable source of love and strength. Ultimately, they are accepting of the pain and regret, allowing themselves to move on from the past with newfound appreciation of the love they had while it lasted.
