Lyrics of Mil mariposas - Presuntos Implicados

Mil mariposas (original)

Tuve que aprender que cantar
es como desgranar ese racimo de voz,
que se te entrega
envuelto en un papel de celofán,
preciado regalo.
Y navegar en los silencios
que nunca nadie escuchó
para optar entre miles de notas.
Dame tu mano y cogeré con mi voz
mil mariposas
dame tu voz y alcanzaré para ti mil mariposas.
Y me esforzaré por andar
entre versos prohibidos,
para susurrar sin herir
si estás dormido,
y ser parte de ti al hablarte
como a un amigo.
Te llevaré tan lejos
como me alcance la voz,
para optar entre miles de manos,
entre miles de notas.
Dame tu mano y cogeré con mi voz
mil mariposas
dame tu voz y alcanzaré para ti mil mariposas

(translation)

I had to learn what to sing
It's like shelling that cluster of voice,
that is delivered to you
wrapped in a cellophane paper,
precious gift.
And navigate in the silences
that no one ever heard
to choose from thousands of notes.
Give me your hand and I'll take it with my voice
thousand butterflies
Give me your voice and I will reach for you a thousand butterflies.
And I will strive to walk
between forbidden verses,
to whisper without hurting
if you are asleep,
and be part of you when talking to you
like a friend.
I'll take you so far
as the voice reaches me,
to choose between thousands of hands,
among thousands of notes.
Give me your hand and I'll take it with my voice
thousand butterflies
give me your voice and I will reach for you a thousand butterflies
