It is a pleasure for me to present today's song in this musical field: "Destello de amor" (Flash of love) by the Venezuelan composer Armando Molero. It is a Zuliana Dance sung, this time, by Ilan Chester a duet with Neguito Borjas. This is one of the songs from the Zulian musical repertoire that has been recorded the most and, at the same time, represents a great part of the identity of the Zulian being.
According to musician and composer Rafael Rincón, the true author of this song was Adán Romero Borjas de Quirso, a musician from the East Coast of Lake Maracaibo (Zulia State) who was a prolific composer of the 20th century. On the other hand, Molero says that this song and some more, he would have composed a cousin who was one of the twins Romero and who was madly in love but who eventually married Curciniano Matos. In short, it is a very beautiful song that represents a song of love and that the Zulian has taken for himself.

Flash of love
How beautiful I look
The tropical beaches
Where the turpiales sing
And the palm trees sway
Where the birds offer
Sing sad music
Where in the birds there are
The fire that God inspires
Where we were born
And where you loved me (bis)
Pinned to your ebúrneo chest
Splendid as yours
Shone a poor cocuyo
Like little star from heaven
He looked at me suspiciously
Losing its radiance
I felt that he was killing me
With a flash of love (bis)
