París Lyrics in English Dani Martin

Home / Lyrics translation / Dani Martin / París

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song París by Dani Martin from Spanish to English.

Quiero amanecer

I want to wake up

Una mañana de diciembre en París

One December morning in Paris

Darme la vuelta y que me digas tú que sí

To turn around and for you to tell me yes

Que ya no hay nada más

That there's nothing else

Y ahora seguir caminando hacia adelante voy

And now I'm going to keep walking forward

Para amanecer

To wake up

Una mañana de noviembre en mi Madrid

One November morning in my Madrid

Que pase un año y ver si seguimos aquí

For a year to pass and see if we're still here

Si aún queremos más

If we still want more

Que hay mil cosas que se ponen por delante hoy

That there are a thousand things that get in the way today

Y queremos siempre rosas

And we always want roses

Y Venecia, Verona y París

And Venice, Verona and Paris

Y la vida es otra cosa

And life is something else

La verdad, la mentira y un sí

The truth, the lie and a yes

Y tenemos mariposas

And we have butterflies

Y gusanos sin seda y al fin

And worms without silk and in the end

Hay serpientes venenosas

There are poisonous snakes

Y un disfraz que se rompe al vivir

And a disguise that breaks when living

Quiero amanecer

I want to wake up

Sin tus abrazos, sin tu vientre, sin París

Without your hugs, without your womb, without Paris

Que siempre muere lo que vimos construir

That what we saw built always dies

Prefiero soledad

I prefer solitude

Que me acompaña desde siempre, cerca y hasta hoy

That has accompanied me since forever, close and until today

Quiero amanecer

I want to wake up

Sin tus encantos sin tus ganas de reír

Without your charms, without your desire to laugh

Sin tus virtudes que en defectos convertí

Without your virtues that I turned into flaws

Maldita realidad

Damned reality

Que lo bonito dura un rato y se vuelve a ir

That what's beautiful lasts a while and leaves again

Y queremos siempre rosas

And we always want roses

Y Venecia, Verona y París

And Venice, Verona and Paris

Y la vida es otra cosa

And life is something else

La verdad, la mentira y un sí

The truth, the lie and a yes

Y tenemos mariposas

And we have butterflies

Y gusanos sin seda y al fin

And worms without silk and in the end

Hay serpientes venenosas

There are poisonous snakes

Y un disfraz que se rompe al vivir

And a disguise that breaks when living

Y queremos siempre rosas

And we always want roses

Y Venecia, Verona y París

And Venice, Verona and Paris

Y la vida es otra cosa

And life is something else

La verdad, la mentira y un sí

The truth, the lie and a yes

Did you like this lyrics translation?

mariposas — butterflies

Mariposas literally means "butterflies." While it's a common word, its use in this song is particularly evocative and culturally significant in Spanish.

In Spanish, the phrase "tener mariposas en el estómago" (to have butterflies in the stomach) is a common idiom for feeling nervous or excited, especially in a romantic context. Dani Martin uses mariposas to hint at these intense, fluttering feelings of love and anticipation, contrasting them with the harsh realities of life. It's a beautiful and relatable image that captures the emotional core of the song.
