En La Selva Lyrics in English Carlos Vives , Katie James

Picture a hand reaching out and saying, “Come with me, let’s disappear into the green.” En La Selva is Carlos Vives and Katie James’ joyful invitation to leave the noise behind and step into Colombia’s wild heart. Over bright folk-pop rhythms, they paint a scene of a little wooden house, the sweet smell of ripe Magdalena fruit, and the crackle of a wood-fire stove. It is a celebration of the land that raised them, where hard work builds character like stone, love flows as freely as water, and a spoken promise is unbreakable.

At its core, the song is a love letter to simple living. The singers long to get lost in the jungle, feel the mountain breeze, and lie under a sky full of stars with someone special. By blending rustic imagery with tender romance, they remind us that true riches are found in nature’s silence, in honest sweat, and in shared moments of wonder far from the city’s rush.
