Con Olor A Hierba Lyrics in English Carin León

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Con Olor A Hierba by Carin León from Spanish to English.
Verse 1
Don't get out of my arms
Keep lying, like that, on the grass
I want to walk you step by step
To go over you like ivy
Chorus 1
Don't get out of my arms
That today my arms are chains
I want that at last my hands
Today, stay full of you
When the sun's going down
And in your eyes the stars shine
And on my back I feel the cold
Of the dark night that's coming
I'll let you go slowly
From my hands, now without strength
You'll shake your hair
So that nobody ever knows
We'll leave with the soul
And with the body smelling of grass
Verse 2
I want that we blend
With the field and with the grass
Like an ear of grain and like a tree
Like a branch of dry leaf
Chorus 2
And don't leave my arms
My arms are chains
I want that at last my hands
Today, stay full of you
When the sun's going down
And in your eyes the stars shine
And on my back I feel the cold
Of the dark night that's coming
I'll let you go slowly
From my hands, now without strength
You'll shake your hair
So that nobody ever knows
We'll leave with the soul
And with the body smelling of grass

SONG MEANING

Con Olor A Hierba invites us to lie down on a blanket of grass and share an intimate, almost cinematic moment. Carin León paints a picture of two lovers who melt into nature: arms become chains that softly imprison, hands explore like climbing ivy, and sunlight slowly fades while stars start to glow in the partner’s eyes. Every sense is awakened—sight, touch, and especially smell—turning the field into their private universe.

Yet the song holds a bittersweet twist. The lovers know their embrace is temporary; when night’s chill arrives, they will part and slip back to everyday life, carrying only the scent of grass as a secret reminder of their stolen afternoon. It is a celebration of passion that is intense, fleeting, and forever preserved in memory, wrapped in the earthy aroma of the countryside.
