VEN DEVÓRAME OTRA VEZ Lyrics in English by Guaynaa
Devórame translates to 'devour me', combining the command form of the verb devorar with the direct object pronoun me.
In this passionate track, Guaynaa uses it metaphorically to express an intense desire to be completely consumed by his partner's love. It is a bold and dramatic word that perfectly captures the fiery energy of the song's famous hook.
Puerto Rican artist Guaynaa brings pure heat and dramatic longing to this track, which puts a fresh spin on the famous salsa classic. The whole premise is deliciously shameless: he is completely obsessed with an ex-lover and cannot move on. In fact, other romances are totally useless to him because he ends up calling out her name in bed by mistake—"haciendo el amor te he nombrado sin quererlo yo" [making love, I said your name without meaning to]. He admits he keeps searching for her wild side in everyone else, wetting his sheets either from steamy dreams ("Hasta en sueño he creído tenerte devorándome" [Even in dreams I thought I had you devouring me]) or straight-up crying over her absence.
He uses intense physical imagery to beg for her return, crying out "Ven devórame otra vez" [Come devour me again] and "castígame con tus deseos más" [punish me with your deepest desires]. Guaynaa sprinkles in his signature Puerto Rican flavor, slipping in the island sigh "bendito" [poor thing / oh bless me] when the heartbreak hits, before shifting the mood right back to pure flirtation. By the end, he is asking her to consume him "suavecito y con calma" [softly and calmly] from head to toe ("de la cabecita a los pies"). It is dramatic, sweaty, and ridiculously catchy.
