Burbujas De Amor Lyrics in English Juan Luis Guerra

Dive into a sea of longing and passion! In “Burbujas de Amor,” Dominican bachata legend Juan Luis Guerra paints an imaginative picture of a heart so in love it wishes to turn into a fish. The singer’s wounded yet hopeful heart dreams of slipping into his lover’s “pecera” (fishbowl), brushing his nose against hers, and spending sleepless nights “mojado en ti” (soaked in you). Through playful underwater imagery—bubbles, corals, moonlit silhouettes—he captures the intense desire to be completely immersed in his beloved’s world.

At its core, the song is a poetic ode to unrestrained affection and fantasy. The heart, impatient and slightly irrational, urges itself to keep dreaming despite scars and uncertainty. Guerra’s lyrical fish metaphor transforms ordinary yearning into a vivid aquatic adventure, where every bubble is a love note rising to the surface. Listening to this bachata, you can almost feel the gentle sway of Caribbean waves carrying a message: when love overflows, it makes us dream of breathing in an entirely new element—just to stay closer to the one we adore.
