Me Equivoqué Lyrics in English Amaia Montero
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Me Equivoqué by Amaia Montero from Spanish to English.
Me equivoqué al dejar mis huellas donde no he sido feliz
I was wrong to leave my footprints where I haven't been happy
Me equivoqué al hacer las cuentas sin tenerme en cuenta a mí
I was wrong to do the math without taking myself into account
Cuando hice daño por las malas
When I hurt the hard way
Cuando no dije que no
When I didn't say no
Me equivoqué al tirar las armas cuando iba ganando yo
I was wrong to throw down my weapons when I was winning
Me equivoqué al dejar la fiesta
I was wrong to leave the party
Le di llaves al ladrón
I gave keys to the thief
Jugar a ser la oveja negra y a no aprender la lección
To play at being the black sheep and not learn the lesson
Cuando saltaba un aro en llamas por no herir al domador
When I jumped through a flaming hoop so as not to hurt the tamer
Cuando el tramposo volvió a casa y le di la absolución
When the cheater came home and I gave him absolution
Cuando me di la espalda
When I turned my back
Cuando no dije nada
When I didn't say anything
Cuando fui una ciudad sin ley, una amazona a pie
When I was a lawless city, an amazon on foot
La piedra en el camino
The stone on the path
Un sol muerto de frío
A sun frozen to death
La que cuando todo se hundió lo usó de munición
The one who when everything went down used it as ammunition
Me equivoqué al no ser la otra, gané en todo lo demás
I was wrong by not being the other one, I won in everything else
Cuando nadé guardé la ropa que me ibas a quitar
When I swam I kept the clothes you were going to take off me
Al no dar la última calada delante del pelotón
By not taking the last puff in front of the firing squad
Cuando por no tener dos caras me las partieron las dos
When for not having two faces they broke both of them for me
Benditos sean los errores
Blessed be the mistakes
Las duchas frías, la medicina, el mal de amores
The cold showers, the medicine, lovesickness
La cuesta abajo, el paso en falso
The downhill slope, the misstep
Los golpes que te enseñan a saber caer
The blows that teach you how to fall
La poesía de las derrotas
The poetry of defeats
La vida en ruinas bajo la ropa
Life in ruins under the clothes
Lo que le escondes a los relojes
What you hide from the clocks
Las noches que no acaban al amanecer
The nights that don't end at dawn
Cuando me di la espalda
When I turned my back
Cuando no dije nada
When I didn't say anything
Cuando fui una ciudad sin ley, una amazona a pie
When I was a lawless city, an amazon on foot
La piedra en el camino
The stone on the path
Un sol muerto de frío
A sun frozen to death
La que cuando todo se hundió lo usó de munición
The one who when everything went down used it as ammunition
La que se dio la espalda
The one who turned her back
La que no dijo nada
The one who didn't say anything
La que fue una ciudad sin ley, una amazona a pie
The one who was a lawless city, an amazon on foot
La piedra en el camino
The stone on the path
Un sol muerto de frío
A sun frozen to death
La que cuando todo se hundió la usó de munición
The one who when everything went down used it as ammunition
Ni soy, ni fui de las que sólo abrazan si es con chaleco antibalas
I am not, nor was I one of those who only hug if it's with a bulletproof vest
Ni la pirada que sólo viajaba en barcos de papel, mmm mmm mmm mm mm mmm
Nor the crazy one who only traveled in paper boats, mmm mmm mmm mm mm mmm

AMAIA MONTERO SALDIAS, BENJAMIN PRADO RODRIGUEZ
Did you like this lyrics translation?
domador — tamer
Domador translates to "tamer" or "trainer," often used in the context of animal training, like a lion tamer.
In this song, Amaia Montero uses it metaphorically to describe a person who controls or manipulates her. She sings, "Cuando saltaba un aro en llamas por no herir al domador" (When I jumped through a flaming hoop so as not to hurt the tamer), illustrating a situation where she endured hardship to avoid upsetting someone who held power over her. This vivid imagery makes the word particularly striking and memorable.
