Tiburones en el Bosque [English translation]

Everytime I'm going out

I shield myself with precaution

because I know that there's a jungle outside

where you are either predator or prey

and the wild beasts buzz

who to trust?

watching for a signal

I walk carefully

because I don't want to be

the next bite

And it's true that one must be

alert and prepared

To face the dangers

that may hurt us

but there can always be,

in suspense and stalking,

sharks in the forest

and foxes in the sea

I never try to find

witches where there aren't any

but I prefer to not give an edge

to a predator dressed as an angel

who's offering jewelry

how to know?

It's just that so much foresight

Won't keep us from finding

deceit and treason

where we least expect it

It's true that one must be

alert and prepared

To face the dangers

that may hurt us

but there can always be,

in suspense and stalking,

sharks in the forest

and foxes in the sea

They tell me in an accusing tone

that I'm a sinner for being farsighted

that so much caution makes no sense

and that prudence is the daughter of failure

And of course one must risk it

Jump over the wall

a boat is very safe at the port

but it was made to sail

I don't know if I'll meet

a fairy or a dragon

But just in case, I carry

many arrows and a flower

It's true that one must be

alert and prepared

To face the dangers

that may hurt us

but there can always be,

in suspense and stalking,

sharks in the forest

and foxes in the sea

sharks in the forest

foxes in the sea

sharks in the forest

sharks in the forest

foxes in the sea
