Amores Lyrics in English Juan Luis Guerra
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Amores by Juan Luis Guerra from Spanish to English.
Amor eterno que no se acaba
Eternal love that doesn't end
Amores tibios que no aman nada
Lukewarm loves that love nothing
Amor fingido, amores necios
Feigned love, foolish loves
Amores locos y amores cuerdos
Crazy loves and sane loves
Yo he visto amores recién nacidos
I've seen newborn loves
Con un se vende en el ombligo
With a for sale sign on their navel
Amor en huelga de agua y vino
Love on strike from water and wine
Y he visto amores
And I've seen loves
Pintándose la cara de olvido
Painting their face with oblivion
Hay amores que luchan
There are loves that fight
Hay amores que esperan
There are loves that wait
Yo he visto amores que lloran
I've seen loves that cry
Hay amor que gobierna
There's love that governs
Y hay amor que se entrega, sí
And there's love that surrenders, yes
Hay amores que callan
There are loves that are silent
Y hay amores que sueñan
And there are loves that dream
Yo he visto amores que sufren
I've seen loves that suffer
Hay amores que matan
There are loves that kill
Y hay amores que queman
And there are loves that burn
Amores sabios, amor barroco
Wise loves, baroque love
De tartamudos y amores cojos
Of stutterers and lame loves
De semifusas en un concilio
Of hemidemisemiquavers in a council
Amor de hormigas en pan comido
Love of ants on an easy task
Yo he visto amores en auto exilio
I've seen loves in self-exile
Purgando besos que se han bebido
Purging kisses they've drunk
Amor rastreado por los gemidos
Love tracked by groans
Y he visto amores
And I've seen loves
Que no saben de amor y te digo
That don't know about love and I tell you
Hay amores que luchan
There are loves that fight
Hay amores que esperan
There are loves that wait
Yo he visto amores que lloran
I've seen loves that cry
Hay amor que gobierna
There's love that governs
Y hay amor que se entrega
And there's love that surrenders
Hay amores que callan
There are loves that are silent
Hay amores que sueñan
There are loves that dream
Yo he visto amores que sufren
I've seen loves that suffer
Hay amores que matan
There are loves that kill
Y hay amores que queman, sí
And there are loves that burn, yes
Hay amores en fuga
There are loves on the run
Girando sobre un retrato
Spinning over a portrait
Amores de pensionados
Loves of retirees
Con una cuota de asilo
With an asylum fee
Y he visto amores
And I've seen loves
Que no saben de amor y te digo
That don't know about love and I tell you
Hay amores que luchan
There are loves that fight
Hay amores que esperan
There are loves that wait
Yo he visto amores que lloran
I've seen loves that cry
Hay amor que gobierna
There's love that governs
Y hay amor que se entrega
And there's love that surrenders
Hay amores que callan
There are loves that are silent
Y hay amores que sueñan
And there are loves that dream
Yo he visto amores que sufren
I've seen loves that suffer
Hay amores que matan
There are loves that kill
Y hay amores que queman
And there are loves that burn
Hay amores que queman
There are loves that burn

Did you like this lyrics translation?
tartamudos — stutterers
Tartamudos translates to "stutterers" or "stammerers". It's a very unusual and specific word to find in a song, especially in the context of love.
Juan Luis Guerra uses it in the line "Amores sabios, amor barroco, De tartamudos y amores cojos" (Wise loves, baroque love, Of stutterers and lame loves). This creates a vivid and somewhat quirky image, suggesting that love can be awkward, imperfect, and still profound, making it a memorable and intriguing choice.
