Si vamos a cantar
If we're going to sing
lo hacemos al compás
we do it to the rhythm
de un ritmo bien sabroso
of a rhythm so tasty
que ahora va a comenzar
that now it's about to start
están todos aquí
they're all here
la rock-a-fiesta va a empezar
the rock-a-party is about to start
Si quieres demostrar
If you want to prove
que tú puedes bailar
that you can dance
la rock-a-fiesta tiene
the rock-a-fiesta has
un ritmo de a verdad
a rhythm of truth
quiero verte reír
I want to see you laugh
así es que vamos a empezar
this is how we’re going to start
¡Y a pachanguear!
And let’s party!
Tú me has hecho cantar
You’ve made me sing
tú me has hecho reír
you’ve made me laugh
la vida comenzó
life began
de nuevo a sonreír
again to smile
Dime si me vas a querer
Tell me if you’re going to love me
como yo te quiero a ti
like I love you
dímelo, anda, de una vez
tell me, come on, once and for all
mira, no me hagas sufrir
look, don't make me suffer
Dime si tu amor tal vez
Tell me if your love maybe
quiere un poquito de mí
wants a little bit of me
dime si me vas a querer
tell me if you're going to love me
como yo te quiero, ¡eh!
like I love you, eh!
Bailando conmigo...
Dancing with me...
Dime si me vas a querer
Tell me if you're going to love me
como yo te quiero a ti
like I love you
dímelo, anda, de una vez
tell me, come on, once and for all
mira, no me hagas sufrir
Look, don't make me suffer
Dime si tu amor tal vez
Tell me if your love perhaps
quiere un poquito de mí
wants a little bit of me
dime si me vas a querer
tell me if you're going to love me
como yo te quiero, ¡eh!
the way I love you, eh!
