amapolas — poppies
Amapolas translates to "poppies". It's a beautiful and somewhat whimsical word that evokes imagery of nature and vibrant colors.
In the song, Juan Luis Guerra sings, "Van cayendo amapolas / Que me arruñan y enamoran" (Poppies are falling / That wrinkle me and make me fall in love). This line uses the delicate image of falling poppies to describe a charming and enchanting feeling, adding a poetic touch to the narrative of love across distances.
