Did you like this lyrics translation?
fulguran — they gleam / they shine brightly
Fulguran comes from the verb fulgurar, meaning 'to gleam' or 'to shine brightly'. It's a more poetic and less common word than brillar (to shine), making it stand out.
In the song, it's used to describe the three Caribbean cities (Santa Marta, Barranquilla, and Cartagena) as places "que fulguran, con luz poca pura" (that gleam, with light not so pure). This line hints at the vibrant, perhaps even wild, energy and allure of these cities, making the word both descriptive and intriguing.
