La niña de las flores means "flower girl", it usually symbolizes innocence or beauty. The only reference that comes to mind are the girls on the street who sell flowers to people and it's their only source of income. It's a popular theme in movies, shows and books:

The song you're talking about by Yasmin Levy is the story of a man giving a flower to a girl, but when she disappears; only a flower is left behind and he recognizes it as hers. He calls her his 'flower girl' because of the flower he gave her.
Thanks for the answer. I know the surface meaning, and the reason why, but I'm curious to know there's any allegory or story or tradition behind it. If you read it as "flower girl" it become mundane, but if you read it as "the girl of the flowers" (making a connection between the two), it has the potential to evoke associations.
Hi. Does "la niña de las flores" have an additional meaning or connotation in Spanish, or some sort of cultural reference? Yasmin Levy also has a song called "la niña de las flores".
