Capullito de Alelí - a classic bolero in the Latin romantic tradition. It was written in 1930 by Puerto Rican composer Rafael Hernández Marín. The tune is famous for its sweet, nostalgic mood and its lyrical imagery of a tender bud of an alelí flower as a beloved. The piece has been performed by many artists; there is no single original performer tied to its first release in the provided material, and it has appeared on numerous recordings rather than a single definitive album. It remains a staple of Latin music and is frequently heard in live sessions and covers, such as Amelia Rivera's 2025 live rendition.
