Singer: Ricky Martin
Le lo lai, ay le lo le lo
Yo vengo con cosa buena para mi pueblo
Traigo amor, traigo ese suero
Que alegra los corazones del mundo entero
Le lo lai, ay le lo le lo
I come with something good for my people
I bring love, I bring that remedy
That brings joy to hearts all around the world
Pa’l dolor, pa’l mal de amores
Nada como el repique de mis tambores
Que que hay tirarse a la calle dejando atrás los problemas
Que cómo decía mi madre, bailando todo se arregla, venga
For the pain, for heartbreak
There’s nothing like the rhythm of my drums
Because you have to hit the streets, leaving problems behind
Like my mother always say, dancing makes everything better, come on
Pégate un poco más, te llaman los tambores
Olvida los temores, que el tiempo se nos va, mujer
Pégate un poco más y mueve esas caderas
Mamita cosa buena, que a mí me pone mal
Ay, Dios
Get a little closer, the drums are calling you
Forget your fears, time is slipping away, girl
Get a little closer and move those hips
Beautiful lady, it drives me wild
Oh, God!
Mueve tus caderas muchacha morena
Báilame ese ritmo con sabor a pena
Ay, una pesetita, pa’ esa vellonera
Para que te olvides de todas tu penas
Move your hips, brown-skinned girl
Dance that rhythm with a taste of sorrow
Oh, a little coin for that jukebox
And forget ur worries
Y esta noche queiro más
Y esta noche queiro fiesta, yeh yeh
Hoy no habrá mal que por bien no venga
Unamos los corazones, hoy todos somos multicolores
And tonight I want more
And tonight I want a party, yeah yeah
Today, no bad thing will come without some good
Let’s unite our hearts, today we are all multicolored
Pégate un poco más, te llaman los tambores
Olvida los temores, que el tiempo se nos va, mujer
Pégate un poco más y mueve esas caderas
Mamita cosa buena, que a mí me pone mal
Ay, Dios
Get a little closer, the drums are calling you
Forget your fears, time is slipping away, girl
Get a little closer and move those hips
Beautiful lady, it drives me wild
Oh, God!
Pégate un poco más, te llaman los tambores
Olvida los temores, que el tiempo se nos va, mujer
Pégate un poco más y mueve esas caderas
Mamita cosa buena, que a mí me pone mal
Ay, Dios
Get a little closer, the drums are calling you
Forget your fears, time is slipping away, girl
Get a little closer and move those hips
Beautiful lady, it drives me wild
Oh, God!
Y que venga el coro (Que venga)
Con todo el amor (Que venga)
Para nuestros niños (Que venga)
Que venga la paz (Que venga)
And let the chorus come (Let it come)
With all the love (Let it come)
For our children (Let it come)
Let peace come (Let it come)
Y que vengan todos (Que venga)
A bailar mi plena (Que venga)
Bien pegadito (Que venga)
Con mucho cariñito (Que venga)
And let everyone come (Let it come)
To dance my plena (Let it come)
Tightly together (Let it come)
With lots of affection (Let it come)
Y que vengan ríos de bondad
A todos los pueblos de la tierra
Que no nos podemos olvidar
Que el amor puro libera y la mentira envenena
Que como decía mi madre, bailando todo se arregla
And let rivers of kindness come
To all the towns of the earth
That we must not forget
That pure love frees and lies poison
That as my mother used to say, dancing makes everything better
Pégate un poco más, te llaman los tambores
Olvida los temores, que el tiempo se nos va, mujer
Pégate un poco más y mueve esas caderas
Mamita cosa buena, que a mí me pone mal
Get a little closer, the drums are calling you
Forget your fears, time is slipping away, girl
Get a little closer and move those hips
Beautiful lady, it drives me wild
Traigo el suero para mi pueblo (Le lo lai, le lo le lo lai)
¡Ay, sí!
Cosa buena para quien quiera la noche entera
I bring the remedy for my people (Le lo lai, le lo le lo lai)
Oh, yes!
Good stuff for anyone who wants it all night long
