Déjate Llevar Lyrics in English by The Marías
Déjate llevar is a beautiful Spanish phrase that literally means "let yourself be carried." It's an invitation to stop resisting, relax your inhibitions, and go with the flow.
In this dreamy song by The Marías, the phrase is a gentle, seductive command. It's the core message of the track, urging a lover to surrender to their feelings and the moment. It perfectly captures the hypnotic and intimate atmosphere of the music.
Déjate Llevar is pure, velvety persuasion from US band The Marías. Right from the start, the singer gives you an out: "Si tú quieres puedes decir que no quieres más de mí" ("If you want, you can say you don't want any more of me"). But she knows you probably won't take it. The hook is the title itself, "Déjate llevar" ("Let yourself be carried away" or simply "Let go"), an invitation to drop your guard and stop fighting whatever is brewing between you two: "Pero si algo pasa en ti que no puedes destruir" ("But if something happens inside you that you can't destroy").
There is a great image when she sings about tripping over your own doubts: "Si te pierdes entre tus pies" ("If you get lost between your feet"). It feels clumsy, like stumbling over yourself while second-guessing the vibe. Her answer to that awkwardness is unshakeable patience. She promises, "Aquí yo, yo te esperaré con besos entre tu piel" ("Here I will wait for you with kisses between your skin"). She even doubles down with "Pero si te vas, yo te voy a amar" ("Even if you leave, I am going to love you"). It might sound slightly stubborn or obsessive on paper, but wrapped in her slow, dreamy delivery, it sounds like an irresistible promise.
