Otra vez
Once again
El Bachatú
Ay, mujer
Ah, woman
Tu cuerpo me hace falta ya
Your body—I need you now
Tus labios, mi refugio
Your lips, my refuge
Que me dejan ebrio de tanto besar
That leave me drunk from all this kissing
Ay, mujer
Ah, woman
Tu risa, mi oportunidad
Your laughter, my chance
Y si no estás conmigo
And if you’re not with me
Todo va muriendo, no puedo soñar
Everything’s dying off, I can’t dream
Es que tu amor me queda grande, ya lo sé
’Cause your love is too big for me, I know it
Es que tu amor se multiplica y crece
’Cause your love multiplies and grows
Es que tu amor es el principio y el final
’Cause your love is the beginning and the end
Es que tu amor le nacen alas y vuela sobre el mar
’Cause your love grows wings and flies over the sea
Antony Santos
Otra vez
Once again
Ay, mujer
Oh, woman
Mi sombra va detrás de ti
My shadow follows behind you
Descalza se desnuda
Barefoot, she undresses
Y entre tu pecho comienzo a vivir
And in your chest I begin to live
Es que tu amor me queda grande, ya lo sé
It’s that your love is too big for me, I already know
Es que tu amor se multiplica y crece
It’s that your love multiplies and grows
Es que tu amor es el principio y el final
It’s that your love is the beginning and the end
Es que tu amor le nacen alas y vuela sobre el mar
It’s that your love is born with wings and flies over the sea
Con cariño
With tenderness
Antony Santos
Ay, mujer
Oh, woman
Mi sombra va detrás de ti
My shadow goes after you
Descalza se desnuda
Barefoot, she undresses
Y entre tu pecho comienzo a vivir
And inside your chest, I begin to live
Es que tu amor me queda grande, ya lo sé
’Cause your love is bigger than me—I already know
Es que tu amor se multiplica y crece
’Cause your love multiplies and grows
Es que tu amor es el principio y el final
’Cause your love is the beginning and the end
Es que tu amor le nacen alas y vuela sobre el mar
’Cause your love is born with wings and flies over the sea
Ay, pero qué chulo, qué chévere
Oh, but how cool—how awesome
Antony Santos
Es que tu amor me queda grande, ya lo sé
’Cause your love is bigger than me—I already know
Es que tu amor se multiplica y crece
’Cause your love multiplies and grows
Es que tu amor es el principio y el final
’Cause your love is the beginning and the end
Es que tu amor le nacen alas y vuela sobre el mar
Because your love grows wings and flies over the sea
