flechó — Struck by love

FlechĂł comes from the verb flechar, which literally means "to shoot with an arrow" (from flecha, arrow). You'll almost always hear it used romantically to describe being struck by Cupid's arrow.

In the song, Ana Mena sings "Debajo del árbol nos flechó cupido" (Under the tree, Cupid struck us with his arrow). It's a beautiful, vivid way to say they fell in love at first sight, making it a perfect word for a romantic Christmas tune.

Spanish artist Ana Mena gives us a Christmas song that's all about a long-awaited romantic reunion! The whole mood is about how much better the holidays are with a specific person. The singer tells us, "Que ha pasado un año y hoy por fin te vuelvo a ver" (A year has passed and today I finally see you again). Now that they're back together, everything feels magical and new, as if it was all meant to be.

This isn't just about festive cheer; it's a full-on love story set during Christmas. They play in the snow, kiss by the tree, and even get a little help from Santa, who "se guilló conmigo" (hooked me up). The song makes it clear this is more than just a holiday fling, comparing the person to the "estrella de Belén" (Star of Bethlehem) and saying it's no coincidence they woke up together. The final verdict? "Navidad contigo es como un San Valentín" (Christmas with you is like a Valentine's Day).
