Desprevenida Lyrics in English Malu

Home / Lyrics Translation / Malu / Desprevenida

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Desprevenida by Malu from Spanish to English.

It caught me off guard

So much life all at once

Caught me so defenseless

Your truth so unconscious

Just as you embrace my need for a hug

And you break my windows

And you slam the door

Today I don't understand destiny

Nor do I intend to

But you arrive, surrendering your ways

Inventing a way out

Giving spring

Stripping my fears bare

Every time you chase me

When I turn around

And you don't wait

And you approach my mouth

And you unpack my drawers

And you drive me even crazier

Stripping my intention in haste

And cornering

My defeats

Opportune coincidence

Today your embrace tastes like home

Setting me so free

Dismantling my armor

Just as you kiss my need for a kiss

And you bite my truths

And you scream at me in silence

Today I don't understand destiny

Nor do I intend to

But you arrive, surrendering your ways

Inventing a way out

Giving spring

Stripping my fears bare

Every time you chase me

When I turn around

And you don't wait

And you approach my mouth

And you unpack my drawers

And you drive me even crazier

Stripping my intention in haste

And cornering

Cornering my defeats

But you arrive, surrendering your ways

Inventing a way out

Giving spring

Stripping my fears bare

Every time you chase me

When I turn around

And you don't wait

And you unpack my drawers

Stripping my intention in haste

And cornering

My defeats

But you arrive

Stripping my intention in haste

And cornering

My defeats

SONG MEANING

“Desprevenida” (“Off Guard”) captures the electrifying moment when love bursts into someone’s life without warning. Malú paints a vivid picture of a heart caught unprepared: windows shatter, drawers are flung open, and the world suddenly blooms into an unexpected primavera (spring). The lyrics describe how the narrator’s defenses crumble as this whirlwind lover instinctively finds every hidden need—offering hugs, kisses, and silent truths that both disarm and exhilarate her.

At its core, the song is about liberation. The newcomer’s bold affection strips away fears, dismantles old armor, and turns past defeats into victories. Malú’s passionate delivery turns vulnerability into strength, reminding us that when love barges in unannounced, it can feel chaotic yet beautifully freeing.
