Flechando is the action form of the verb flechar, which literally means "to shoot with an arrow" (flecha). This is a wonderfully poetic word you won't encounter in typical daily Spanish.
In the song, Paulina sings "...flechando mi corazón" (...striking my heart with an arrow). She uses this vivid metaphor, much like being struck by Cupid's arrow, to describe the powerful and immediate moment she fell in love. It's a perfect word to express that magical, heart-stopping feeling.
Ever felt completely head over heels for someone, even when your brain is screaming that it's a bad idea? That's the powerful, rollercoaster feeling Mexican pop superstar Paulina Rubio sings about in her hit song, 'Enamorada'. The title itself means 'In Love', but this isn't a simple, happy love story. It’s a passionate confession from someone who feels trapped and deceived by a lover's broken promises.
Our singer is waiting for a letter that never arrives. While her friends are out partying, she's stuck thinking only of him. She's heard rumors that he might have moved on, but she holds onto a tiny bit of hope. The song perfectly captures that painful mix of feelings:
