Mariposas Lyrics in English Belanova

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Mariposas by Belanova from Spanish to English.
Butterflies inside my body
Everything is movement, I am movement
Look how the universe spins
That's what I feel, that's what I feel
No, I'm not going to stop it
I'm not going to stop, not today
I will fly over your skin
I don't know where I'll arrive
I'm not afraid to explode
It doesn't matter what could happen
I only want to sail a dream
I'm not afraid to explode
It doesn't matter what could happen
I only want to sail with you
Asteroids inside my body
Everything is movement, I am movement
The world spins inside my body
That's what I feel, that's what I feel
No, I'm not going to stop it
I'm not going to stop, not today
I will fly over your skin
I don't know where I'll arrive
I'm not afraid to explode
It doesn't matter what could happen
I only want to sail a dream
I'm not afraid to explode
It doesn't matter what could happen
I only want to sail with you

SONG MEANING

Mariposas launches us straight into the dizzy thrill of new love, swapping tired clichés for butterflies and asteroids that swirl inside the singer’s body. Belanova turns herself into a living galaxy where everything is in motion, refusing to “detener” or slow down. The cosmic imagery captures that fluttery, unstoppable rush when feelings first ignite—every spin of the universe mirrors the spin in her chest.

Instead of fearing the unknown, she embraces it: “No tengo miedo de explotar.” She wants to fly over your skin, navigate a dream, and let passion decide the route. The message is clear and uplifting—surrender to the adventure, trust the momentum, and enjoy the ride together, wherever it leads.
