Corazón De Poeta Lyrics in English by Jeanette

Home / Lyrics translation / Jeanette / Corazón De Poeta

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Corazón De Poeta by Jeanette from Spanish to English.

He has the expression of a flower

The voice of a bird

And a soul like a full moon

From a month of April

His words have warmth

And winter cold

His skin is tough like the tree

That the wind lashes

And he has the heart of a poet

Of a big boy, of a man-child

Able to love with delirium

Able to sink into sadness

Because he has the heart of a poet

Of vagabond, of beggar

And that's how I've known him

And that's how I like him to be

That he has the heart of a poet

He has the arrogance of the sun

Candid gaze

His snow-like skin turns to fire

Near me

He's a friend and faithful lover

Of the stars

He walks next to me

Dreaming of beautiful things

And he has the heart of a poet

Of big boy and of man-child

Able to love with delirium

Able to sink into sadness

Because he has the heart of a poet

Of vagabond, of beggar

And that's how I've known him

And that's how I like him to be

That he has the heart of a poet

Because he has the heart of a poet

Of vagabond, of beggar

And that's how I've known him

And that's how I like him to be

That he has the heart of a poet

arrogancia — arrogance

Arrogancia translates to "arrogance", a word we usually see as negative.

However, in this classic song, Jeanette uses it in a stunningly poetic metaphor: "Tiene la arrogancia del sol" (He has the arrogance of the sun). This phrase reframes arrogance not as conceit, but as the powerful, undeniable, and unapologetic brilliance of the sun. It's a beautiful way to describe someone with a captivating and self-assured presence.

Jeanette is describing a very particular kind of man in this song, one who is full of contradictions. He has the soft "expresión de una flor" (expression of a flower) but his skin is tough "como el árbol que azota el viento" (like a tree whipped by the wind). His words can bring both "calor" (warmth) and the "frío de invierno" (cold of winter). It's all because he has the "corazón de poeta" (heart of a poet).

This "poet's heart" makes him a dreamer and a romantic, a faithful friend and lover "de las estrellas" (of the stars). But it also means he feels everything very deeply. He is "capaz de amar con delirio" (capable of loving with delirium) and also "capaz de hundirse en la tristeza" (capable of sinking into sadness). The singer sees him as a "niño grande" (big kid) and a "vagabundo" (wanderer), and she loves him exactly as he is. She says, "así lo he conocido / Y así me gusta a mí que sea" (that's how I've known him / and that's how I like him to be).
