Avanzo y escribo
I advance and write
Decido el camino
I decide the path
Las ganas que quedan se marchan
The desires that remain leave
Con vos
With you
Se apaga el deseo
The desire fades out
Ya no me entre veo
I no longer glimpse myself
Y hablar es lo que se me va mejor
And talking is what I do best
Con los ojos no te veo
With my eyes I don't see you
Sé que se me viene el mareo
I know dizziness is coming over me
Y es entonces cuando quiero
And it's then when I want
Salir a caminar
To go out for a walk
Con los ojos no te veo
With my eyes I don't see you
Sé que se me viene el mareo
I know dizziness is coming over me
Y es entonces cuando quiero
And it's then when I want
Salir a caminar
To go out for a walk
El aire me ciega
The air blinds me
Hay vidrio en la arena
There's glass in the sand
Ya no me da pena
I no longer feel regret
Dejarte un adios
To leave you a goodbye
Así son las cosas
That's how things are
Amargas borrosas
Bitter, blurry
Son fotos veladas de un tiempo
They're veiled photos of a time
Mejor
Better
Con los ojos no te veo
With my eyes I don't see you
Sé que se me viene el mareo
I know dizziness is coming over me
Y es entonces cuando quiero
And it's then when I want
Salir a caminar
To go out for a walk
Con los ojos no te veo
With my eyes I don't see you
Sé que se me viene el mareo
I know dizziness is coming over me
Y es entonces cuando quiero
And it's then when I want
Salir a caminar
To go out for a walk
El aire me ciega
The air blinds me
Hay vidrio en la arena
There's glass in the sand
Ya no me da pena
I no longer feel regret
Dejarte un adios
To leave you a goodbye
Así son las cosas
That's how things are
Amargas borrosas
Bitter, blurry
Son fotos veladas de un tiempo
They're veiled photos of a time
Mejor
Better
Con los ojos no te veo
With my eyes I don't see you
Sé que se me viene el mareo
I know dizziness is coming over me
Y es entonces cuando quiero
And it's then when I want
Salir a caminar
To go out for a walk
Con los ojos no te veo
With my eyes I don't see you
Sé que se me viene el mareo
I know dizziness is coming over me
Y es entonces cuando quiero
And it's then when I want
Salir a caminar
To go out for a walk

Did you like this lyrics translation?
mareo — dizziness / seasickness
Mareo literally translates to "dizziness" or "seasickness." It's a common word, but its use in this song is particularly evocative and central to the theme.
In "El Mareo," the word captures a feeling of disorientation and emotional instability. The singer describes feeling a "mareo" when he can't see his loved one, suggesting a profound sense of loss and confusion that makes him want to escape and walk away. This metaphorical use makes it a compelling and memorable word.
