Geografía Lyrics in English La Oreja de Van Gogh

Home / Lyrics Translation / La Oreja de Van Gogh / Geografía

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Geografía by La Oreja de Van Gogh from Spanish to English.

I'd like to invent a country with you

So that words like homeland or future

Flag, nation, border, race or destiny

Would have some meaning for me

And that it border on the east with a thousand friends

To the south with your passions and to the west with the sea

To the north with the secrets that I never tell you

To rule them up close if you want to conquer them

If you feel it too, if you also feel like it

Don't think about it, let's go, we're already two

Why don't you give me your hand and we grab this boat

Celebrating with a kiss that today is today

That our homeland exists wherever you and I are

That everything will be near if the two of us are near

That our homeland exists wherever you and I are

That everything will be near, let's go

I'd love our country to have

A huge arsenal of caresses under the sea

So that when night falls I light two candles

To invade you by surprise in privacy

With two inhabitants it'll be the smallest in the world

And yet the biggest of all the ones I've seen

Truly I tell you that the anthem I'm writing is sincere

It says that there are as many countries

As people in every country

If you feel it too, if you also feel like it

Don't think about it, let's go, we're already two

Why don't you give me your hand and we grab this boat

Celebrating with a kiss that today is today

That our homeland exists wherever you and I are

That everything will be near if the two of us are near

That our homeland exists wherever you and I are

That everything will be near, don't think, let's go

Because our homeland exists wherever you and I are

That everything will be near if the two of us are near

That everything will be near, let's go, you and I

Did you like this lyrics translation?

conquistar — to conquer / to win someone's heart

Conquistar literally translates to "to conquer" a territory or nation, but in Spanish, it is also widely used to mean "to win someone's heart" or to woo them.

Because the song is titled "Geografía", La Oreja de Van Gogh plays brilliantly with this double meaning throughout the lyrics. The singer uses the language of nation-building and borders to describe love, playfully challenging her partner to conquistar (conquer) her hidden secrets, turning a geographical concept into a beautiful romantic metaphor.

Geografía invites us to grab a blank map and color it with love instead of borders. La Oreja de Van Gogh imagines a brand–new country created by two people who prefer hugs to flags and kisses to national anthems. East is lined with friends, south with passions, west with the sea, and north with whispered secrets—everything that truly matters fits inside this playful republic of two.

The song turns geography class into a romance adventure, declaring that home is wherever the couple stands. By erasing words like nation, race, and frontier, the lyrics celebrate intimacy as the only citizenship we need: a tiny territory with the biggest heart. Every verse is a passport stamp reminding us that when we are close, the world feels wonderfully small—and every day is Independence Day for love.
