Narcos Theme Song

Yes, that Netflix show.

The theme song for the opening credits of Narcos is called “Tuyo” (Yours). It was composed and performed by Colombian artist Rodrigo Amarante. “Tuyo” serves as the opening theme for the show and has gained significant popularity for its captivating sound and lyrical content.

The song is sung entirely in Spanish and features a blend of traditional Latin American music, including elements of bolero and tango, with modern instrumentation. The haunting and atmospheric melody, coupled with Amarante’s smooth vocals, creates a sense of intrigue and sets the tone for the series.

Narcos theme song lyrics (Spanish)

Soy el fuego que arde tu piel
Soy el agua que mata tu sed
El castillo, la torre yo soy
La espada que guarda el caudal

Tú, el aire que respiro yo
Y la luz de la luna en el mar
La garganta que ansío mojar
Que temo ahogar de amor

Y cuáles deseos me vas a dar, oh
Dices tu, mi tesoro basta con mirarlo
Y tuyo será, y tuyo será

Narcos theme song lyrics in English

Like we said earlier, “tuyo” means yours in Spanish. Below is the rough translation of the song based from interpretations and context.

I am the fire that burns your skin
I am the water that kills your thirst
Of the castle, I am the tower
The sword that guards the treasure
You, the air that I breathe
And the light of the moon on the sea
The throat that I long to wet
But I’m afraid I’ll drown in love
And which desires will you give me?
Just to look is treasure enough
It will be yours, it will be yours.
