A mí me gusta verte reír
I love seeing you laugh
A mí me gusta verte saltar
I love seeing you jump
Como la luna que baña el mar
Like the moon that bathes the sea
Entre tus besos yo me perdí
In your kisses, I got lost
Es algo que no puedo explicar
It's something I can't explain
Mi corazón se quiere escapar
My heart wants to escape
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke-te (¡así!)
Teke teke, teke teke-te (just like that!)
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke-te (¡ahí!)
Teke teke, teke teke-te (right there!)
Ay, Dios mío, oh, Lord have mercy
Oh my God, oh Lord have mercy
Mami, dame cuerpo, pero don't hurt me
Baby, give me your body, but don't hurt me
Like Rihanna, baby, just work me
Like Rihanna, baby, just work me
Work, work, work, work, work, work me
Work, work, work, work, work, work me
Me gusta cómo bailas en la cama
I love how you dance in bed
Tú quieres mi corazón y mi alma
You want my heart and my soul
I call you, call you on the phone, and tell you I love
I call you, call you on the phone, and tell you I love
I lov-I lov-I lov-I lov-I love you
I lov-I lov-I lov-I lov-I love you
Girl, I love ya, love ya and tu mente
Girl, I love ya, love ya and your mind
You're my one and only, baby, you're my solamente
You're my one and only, baby, you're my only
Da-da-da-dámelo caliente
Da-da-da-give it to me hot
Break it, break it, break it down suavemente
Break it, break it, break it down softly
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke-te (¡así!)
Teke teke, teke teke-te (just like that!)
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke-te (¡ahí!)
Teke teke, teke teke-te (right there!)
¡Wopaaa!
Wopaaa!
A mí me gusta cuando Mayte la canta
I like it when Mayte sings it
Y la Martina mata con la mirada
And Martina kills with her gaze
Me gusta Niña porque le pone el alma
I like Niña because she puts her soul into it
Y Seferina, ¿qué tiene que me encanta?
And Seferina, what does she have that I love?
Pero nadie teke teke como tú
But no one tekes like you do
Se me para el corazón cuando me bailas
My heart stops when you dance for me
Pero nadie teke teke, solo tú
But no one teke teke, just you
Porque sientes que te quiero con el alma
Because you feel that I love you with my soul
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke-te (¡así!)
Teke teke, teke teke-te (just like that!)
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke-te (¡ahí!)
Teke teke, teke teke-te (right there!)
Y suena así
And it sounds like this
¡Woohoo!
Woohoo!
All my people, sigue bailando
All my people, keep dancing
Throw your hands in the air
Throw your hands in the air
Let's rock this party like it's ya birthday
Let's rock this party like it's your birthday
Shake it like you just don't care
Shake it like you just don't care
From the left to the right, come on let me hear ya
From the left to the right, come on let me hear you
Teke teke, teke teke-te
Teke teke, teke teke-te
From the front to the back, come on a little louder
From the front to the back, come on a little louder
Teke teke, teke teke-te
Teke teke, teke teke-te
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke-te (¡así!)
Teke teke, teke teke-te (just like that!)
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke
Teke teke, teke teke-te (¡ahí!)
Teke teke, teke teke-te (right there!)
