Soldadito De Hierro Lyrics in English Nil Moliner , Dani Fernández

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Soldadito De Hierro by Nil Moliner from Spanish to English.
I'm dying
When I think that someday this dream
Reaches the bottom of the ground
And that we remember nothing
Of this time
I'm dying
Like that little iron soldier
That stands up in the battle
Afraid, trembling, he shoots
And no, I want to say goodbye to these years
That no, I'm not gonna let go of your hand
I'm gonna steal
All the time that I can from love
Wake up and that you're by my side
And the sun paints our room
I'm gonna steal
All the time that I can from love
And someday be able to explain to you
The reason for this song
I'm dying
When I think that someday you'll be far away
And that I can't tell you my fears
I don't wanna miss you
I'm dying
Like that little iron soldier
That dances standing in the battle
Tired, afraid and unarmed
And I don't want to say goodbye to these years
That no, I'm not gonna let go of your hand
I'm gonna steal
All the time that I can from love
Wake up and that you're by my side
And the sun paints our room
I'm gonna steal
All the time that I can from love
And someday be able to explain to you
The reason for this song
No
And we can hurt each other in the battle
We're soldiers that bullets scare
Stand up with me
The night and the cold arrive
Love is our weapon
Without time it's already won
Stand up with me
I'm gonna steal
All the time that I can from love
Wake up and that you're by my side
And the sun paints our room
I'm gonna steal
All the time that I can from love
And someday be able to explain to you
The reason for this song
No
No

SONG MEANING

Picture love as a little tin soldier who trembles on a chaotic battlefield yet refuses to back down. In “Soldadito De Hierro,” Nil Moliner and Dani Fernández turn that image into an emotional anthem about the fear of losing precious moments and the determination to protect them. The singers confess, “Me muero al pensar que algún día este sueño llegue hasta el fondo del suelo,” revealing how terrifying it feels to imagine their shared dream collapsing and memories fading. Like the fragile soldier who keeps dancing while bullets fly, they choose to stand tall, cling to hope, and keep firing their best weapon: love.

The chorus becomes a playful yet urgent promise: “Voy a robarle todo el tiempo que pueda al amor.” They plan to “steal” every second possible for affection, waking up beside their partner with sunlight painting the room. Even when exhaustion, doubt, or distance threaten, they swear not to let go of each other’s hand. The song reminds us that real courage is not being bulletproof; it is daring to be vulnerable, to admit fear, and to fight for connection anyway. In the end, the little tin soldier stands as a symbol for all of us—fragile, brave, and determined to turn every heartbeat into a victory for love.
