Mariposas Lyrics in English Bely Basarte
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Mariposas by Bely Basarte from Spanish to English.
Contigo yo no quiero ni flores ni canciones
With you I don't want flowers or songs
Quiero viajar sin frenos y escapar a media noche
I want to travel without brakes and escape at midnight
Contigo yo no quiero pensar toda una vida
With you I don't want to plan a whole life
Prefiero improvisar sin miedo a que haya una caída
I prefer to improvise without fear of a fall
Mariposas que se revuelven cuando me rozas
Butterflies that stir when you touch me
Y todo se detiene alrededor si tú y yo nos miramos así
And everything stops around if you and I look at each other like this
Son tus besos encendiéndome a fuego lento
It's your kisses igniting me slowly
Y cada esquina de mí habitación presta atención para vernos aquí
And every corner of my room pays attention to see us here
Dando vueltas por el suelo
Rolling on the floor
Burlando al colchón
Bypassing the mattress
Hoy llegamos hasta el cielo, agárrate
Today we reach the sky, hold on
Y pierde el control
And lose control
Que nos sobren los vaqueros
Let our jeans be unnecessary
Y nos vista el sudor
And sweat dresses us
Que no quede ni un solo palmo en nuestra piel
That there isn't a single inch on our skin
Sin dosis de amor
Without a dose of love
Hmm mmm
Hmm mmm
Tarararara, tara, tara
Tarararara, tara, tara
Contigo se me olvida que existen las fronteras
With you I forget that borders exist
Y quiero que las tardes de caricias sean eternas
And I want the afternoons of caresses to be eternal
Que yo contigo quiero vivir mil aventuras
That with you I want to live a thousand adventures
Reír toda la noche y bailar bajo la lluvia
Laugh all night and dance under the rain
Mariposas que se revuelven cuando me rozas
Butterflies that stir when you touch me
Y todo se detiene alrededor si tú y yo nos miramos así
And everything stops around if you and I look at each other like this
Dando vueltas por el suelo
Rolling on the floor
Burlando al colchón
Bypassing the mattress
Hoy llegamos hasta el cielo, agárrate
Today we reach the sky, hold on
Y pierde el control
And lose control
Que nos sobren los vaqueros
Let our jeans be unnecessary
Y nos vista el sudor
And sweat dresses us
Que no quede ni un solo palmo en nuestra piel
That there isn't a single inch on our skin
Sin dosis de amor
Without a dose of love
Tú me pensarás si algún día llega el final
You'll think of me if someday the end comes
Yo te buscaré en mis sábanas
I'll look for you in my sheets
Olvida el champán, no me hace falta brindar para estar
Forget the champagne, I don't need to toast to be
Dando vueltas por el suelo
Rolling on the floor
Burlando al colchón
Bypassing the mattress
Hoy llegamos hasta el cielo, agárrate
Today we reach the sky, hold on
Y pierde el control
And lose control
Que nos sobren los vaqueros
Let our jeans be unnecessary
Y nos vista el sudor
And sweat dresses us
Que no quede ni un solo palmo en nuestra piel
That there isn't a single inch on our skin
Sin dosis de amor
Without a dose of love
Comenzábamos el gusto en la piel
We were beginning the pleasure on the skin
Solo quedamos perdiendo el control
We're only left losing control

Mariposas — Butterflies
Mariposas literally means "butterflies." While it's a common word, its use in this song is particularly evocative and universally understood as a metaphor for the fluttery, nervous, yet exciting feeling of new love or intense attraction.
In the lyrics, "Mariposas que se revuelven cuando me rozas" (Butterflies that stir when you touch me), it perfectly captures that classic sensation of having "butterflies in your stomach." This makes it an engaging and relatable word for anyone experiencing the thrill of romance, making it a great hook to explore the song's theme.
