And I, who until yesterday was just a slacker

And today I am the guardian of your dreams of love

I want her to die

You can destroy everything you see

Because she breathes it back

As if nothing, as if nothing

I want her to die

She erases the hours of each watch

And it teaches me to paint pain transparent

With his smile

Raise a tower from the sky to here

And he sews some wings and helps me climb

In a hurry, in a hurry

I want her to die

Know each war well

Every wound, every being

Know each war well

Of life and love too

He draws me a landscape and makes me live it

In a pencil forest it takes hold of me

I want her to die

And it traps me in a bond that never tightens

Like a silk thread I can't let go of

I can't let go, I don't want to let go

I want her to die

When I climb into his eyes, I face the sea

Two water mirrors, enclosed in glass

I want her to die

I can only sit down, I can only chat

I can only entangle, I can only accept

To be yours alone, yours alone

I want her to die

Know each war well

Every wound, every being

Know each war well

Of life and love too

Know each war well

Every wound, every being

Know each war well

Of life and love too

Know each war well

Every wound, every being

Know each war well

Of life and love too

And I, who until yesterday was just a slacker

And today I am the guardian of your dreams of love

I want her to die

You can destroy everything you see

Because she breathes it back

As if nothing, as if nothing

I want her to die

Did you like this lyrics translation?

Jarabe de Palo, with Alejandro Sanz, gives us a beautiful song about being completely swept away by love. The singer starts by admitting he was a "holgazán" [lazy person] until yesterday, but now he's the "guardián de sus sueños de amor" [guardian of her dreams of love]. He loves her so much, he says, "La quiero a morir" [I love her to death].

This woman sounds incredible! She can "borra las horas de cada reloj" [erase the hours from every clock] and even "enseña a pintar transparente el dolor" [teaches me to paint pain transparent]. She builds towers from the sky and gives him wings to fly. He feels totally captivated, like he's caught in a "lazo que no aprieta jamás" [a knot that never tightens], a silk thread he can't and doesn't want to let go of. It's a song about being utterly devoted and transformed by someone you love deeply.
