Amor Que Invento Lyrics in English by Pavel Núñez, Pedro Guerra
Guarida translates to "lair," "den," or "refuge." It's an evocative word that conjures images of a hidden, secret place.
In this song, Pavel Núñez uses it poetically to describe his lover's eyes as a "guarida de un duende" (a goblin's lair) and later as a "refugio en otra guarida" (refuge in another lair). This metaphorical use creates a sense of mystery and intimacy, suggesting a place of escape and deep connection.
Pavel Núñez and Pedro Guerra's "Amor Que Invento" is a beautiful, imaginative song about a love that feels almost dreamlike. The singer describes his beloved's green eyes as "la guarida de un duende" [the hideout of a goblin], a place where he wants to look and hide. Their lips are like "lluvia" [rain], a "cueva de peces" [fish cave] where he wants to get lost.
What's really interesting is how this intense, almost fantastical love exists. The singer says, "Y es en la calle mi amor / Que reconozco tus gestos / Cuando te llamo mi amor / Cuando te invento" [And it's in the street, my love / That I recognize your gestures / When I call you, my love / When I invent you]. It's like he's conjuring this person, or perhaps the intensity of his feelings makes the love feel so real it's as if he's creating it. He even calls it "Amor que invento" [Love that I invent], which is such a unique and poetic way to describe a deep connection.
