La Boca Del Lobo Lyrics in English Amaia Montero
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Boca Del Lobo by Amaia Montero from Spanish to English.
Me siento en casa cuando no sé dónde estoy
I feel at home when I don't know where I am
Bailo descalza con gente que lo sabe todo de mí
I dance barefoot with people who know everything about me
Pero no sabe quién soy
But they don't know who I am
Me gustan Londres, olvidarte y el café
I like London, forgetting you, and coffee
No añadir nada cuando ya no queda nada por decir
Not adding anything when there's nothing left to say
Ser más de una a la vez
To be more than one at a time
Si el truco sale mal me voy de la ciudad
If the trick goes wrong, I leave the city
Tiro las llaves, doy la vuelta y cambio de plan
I throw the keys, turn around, and change my plan
Todo me vale si el final de la historia es que apareces tú
Anything works for me if the end of the story is that you appear
Quemo mis naves, me meto en la boca del lobo y doy la luz
I burn my ships, go into the wolf's mouth, and give birth
Ya sólo puedo estar contigo o lejos de mí
Now I can only be with you or far from myself
Ya no lo niego, me echo de menos cuando estoy sin ti
I don't deny it anymore, I miss myself when I'm without you
Si pido cara y sale cruz pruebo otra vez
If I ask for heads and it comes up tails, I try again
Si quiero hachas de guerra tengo una enterrada en el jardín
If I want war axes, I have one buried in the garden
Y si hay que huir, sé correr
And if I have to flee, I know how to run
Si tiran a matar, río por no llorar
If they shoot to kill, I laugh so I don't cry
Y si me empujan al vacío, aprendo a planear
And if they push me into the void, I learn to glide
Todo me vale si el final de la historia es que apareces tú
Anything works for me if the end of the story is that you appear
Quemo mis naves, me meto en la boca del lobo y doy la luz
I burn my ships, go into the wolf's mouth, and give birth
Ya sólo puedo estar contigo o lejos de mí
Now I can only be with you or far from myself
Ya no lo niego, me echo de menos cuando estoy sin ti
I don't deny it anymore, I miss myself when I'm without you
Hey y hey
Hey and hey
Ya no lo niego, te echo de menos
I don't deny it anymore, I miss you
Todo me vale si el final de la historia es que apareces tú
Anything works for me if the end of the story is that you appear
Quemo mis naves, me meto en la boca del lobo y doy la luz
I burn my ships, go into the wolf's mouth, and give birth
Ya sólo puedo estar contigo o lejos de mí
Now I can only be with you or far from myself
Ya no lo niego, me echo de menos cuando estoy sin ti
I don't deny it anymore, I miss myself when I'm without you
Todo me vale si el final de la historia es que apareces tú
Anything works for me if the end of the story is that you appear
Quemo mis naves, me meto en la boca del lobo y doy la luz
I burn my ships, go into the wolf's mouth, and give birth
Ya sólo puedo estar contigo o lejos de mí
Now I can only be with you or far from myself
Ya no lo niego, me echo de menos cuando estoy sin ti
I don't deny it anymore, I miss myself when I'm without you

la boca del lobo — the wolf's mouth
La boca del lobo literally translates to "the wolf's mouth." It's an idiomatic expression in Spanish, similar to the English phrase "the lion's den," meaning to enter a dangerous or risky situation.
In the song, Amaia Montero sings, "Quemo mis naves, me meto en la boca del lobo y doy la luz" (I burn my ships, I enter the wolf's mouth and give birth/bring to light). This powerful imagery suggests taking a huge, irreversible risk for love, highlighting a moment of profound commitment and vulnerability.
