Tu mirada tiene un fulgor
Your gaze has a glow
que hace que me preocupe amor
that makes me worry, my love
yo no quiero un familia formar
I don't want to start a family
ni tener por ahora hogar.
nor have a home for now.
Ay! sigamos siendo amigos y yo te amaré
Oh! let's just stay friends and I'll love you
no aferres pues si no me escaparé.
don't hold on tight, or else I'll escape.
(Yo no quiero que te enamores
(I don't want you to fall in love
yo no quiero que te enamores
I don't want you to fall in love
solo se que yo te dejare
I only know that I'll let you go
yo no quiero que te enamores).
I don't want you to fall in love).
Mamita linda, no no no cosita rica.
Pretty mama, no no no sweet thing.
Suéltame que vengo espaciao.
Let me go, I'm feeling spacey.
Muy ardiente tu espiritu es
Your spirit is so fiery,
y aunque ahora vibrando estoy
and even though I'm vibrating now,
no quisiera que tu después
I wouldn't want you to think later
te pensaras que tuyo soy
that I'm yours,
no te hagas de ilusiones que quizás
don't get your hopes up, perhaps
pues me iré y nunca me encontraras.
for I will leave and you will never find me.
No te enamores, no te enamores cosita linda
Don't fall in love, don't fall in love, sweet thing,
mira que después yo me embalaré mamita linda
see that later I might get carried away, pretty mama.
no no no no no no no ...
no no no no no no no ...
no te enamores, no te enamores
don't fall in love, don't fall in love
tu no ves que después yo me escaparé
don't you see that later I'll escape?
mamita linada no te enamores
sweet little one, don't fall in love
no te enamores, no te enamores
don't fall in love, don't fall in love
cosita linda, cosita rica, mamita linda.
pretty thing, delicious thing, sweet mama.

About this song
Firmly fixed in the Latin music firmament as "El Sonero Mayor" (The Greatest Singer), Ismael Rivera was blessed with a gloriously husky voice, which he honed into a unique improvisational instrument.
