Belerofón Lyrics in English by Taburete

Belerofón is the Spanish name for Bellerophon, a hero from Greek mythology famous for taming the winged horse Pegasus and defeating the Chimera.

This word is incredibly unique and immediately grabs attention because it's not a common Spanish word. Its presence as the song's title and a key reference suggests a deeper, perhaps metaphorical, meaning within the lyrics, inviting listeners to explore the song's narrative and uncover the connection to this mythical figure.

Taburete's "Belerofón" feels like waking up from a long nap and realizing you're ready for something new. The lyrics talk about shaking off the "siesta del destino" [nap of destiny] and seeing only scattered points on the wall, with one saying "ya no me quieren" [they don't love me anymore]. It's a moment of clarity, deciding to "volar" [fly] and leave old emotions behind after a tricky "contrato" [contract].

But even with this desire to fly, there's a cozy comfort in waiting. The singer finds themselves "a gusto aquí en tu sofá" [comfortable here on your sofa], waiting for the keys to enter, and perhaps for something more intimate. Lines like "esperando que abras las piernas y me dejes pasar" [waiting for you to open your legs and let me in] are pretty direct! It's a mix of big dreams and immediate desires, all wrapped up in a night where "las amapolas se están despertando" [the poppies are waking up] and want to play.
