Me Voy De Casa Lyrics in English Natalia Lafourcade

Home / Lyrics Translation / Natalia Lafourcade / Me Voy De Casa

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Me Voy De Casa by Natalia Lafourcade from Spanish to English.

The dirt roads that the sun warms

The smell of morning and fresh fruit

The song of my solitude

Holds my soul as I walk

It keeps it alert

I use the past like a shield

I step on the footprint that somebody trod

The countryside sweats heat

My body holds the courage

And I dance gladly

I'm leaving, I'm leaving, I'm leaving, I'm leaving home

Far away, I'm leaving home

Where nobody can reach me to look

I get lost, I get lost, I get lost

That's how I find myself

Only when I get lost

It's that only like this I find myself while walking

It's the yellow moon on the horizon

That tells me where to head north

I carry my heart tied up, I paint it another color

I know that I have to do what my skin screams to me

I cross borders and paradises

I look at volcanoes and cliffs

I'm living my own dream

I ignore each fear

I keep being faithful to what I want to be

I try to be strong

And not think that I'm leaving what I love the most

To try my luck

I'm leaving, I'm leaving, I'm leaving home

Far away, I'm leaving home

Where nobody can reach me to look

I get lost, I get lost, I get lost

That's how I find myself

Only when I get lost

It's that only like this I find myself while walking

We have to look farther

We have to dance to the wind

We have to look farther

We have to dance to the wind

We have to look farther

We have to dance to the wind

We have to look farther

We have to dance to the wind

SONG MEANING

Me Voy De Casa is Natalia Lafourcade’s vibrant ode to stepping into the vast unknown with nothing but courage, curiosity and a backpack full of dreams. Guided by the scent of fresh fruit, the heat of sun-baked dirt roads and the pale yellow moon on the horizon, the singer paints a cinematic journey that begins in the Mexican countryside and pushes ever northward. Every beat feels like a footstep on dusty ground while every melody captures the thrill of leaving comfort behind.

At its heart, the song celebrates getting lost in order to be found. Natalia treats her past as a protective shield, yet she refuses to let fear dictate her path. Crossing borders, staring into volcanoes and pirouetting over precipices, she reminds us that true self-discovery happens when we dare to dance with the wind, look farther than the familiar and trust the primal voice inside our skin. "Me Voy De Casa" is equal parts road-trip anthem and soulful manifesto, encouraging listeners to pack bravery, chase horizons and find themselves in the wide open world.
