Luis Fonsi, “Despacito”

Despacito Slowly
_ _
Sí, sabes que ya llevo un rato mirándote Yes, you know that I’ve been watching you for a while
Tengo que bailar contigo hoy I have to dance with you today
Vi que tu mirada ya estaba llamándome I saw, that your look was calling me
Muéstrame el camino que yo voy (Oh) Show me the way that I’m going oh
Tú, tú eres el imán y yo soy el metal You you are the magnet and I’m the metal
_ _
Me voy acercando y voy armando el plan I’m getting closer and I’m setting up the plan
Solo con pensarlo se acelera el pulso (Oh yeah) Just the thought of it accelerates the pulse
Ya, ya me está gustando más de lo normal Already I’m enjoying it more than usual
Todos mis sentidos van pidiendo más All my senses are asking for more
Esto hay que tomarlo sin ningún apuro This must be taken without any trouble
_ _
Despacito Slowly
Quiero respirar tu cuello despacito I want to breathe your neck slowly
Deja que te diga cosas al oído Let me tell you things in your ears
Para que te acuerdes si no estás conmigo So that you remember when you’re not with me
_ _
Despacito Slowly
Quiero desnudarte a besos despacito I want to undress you with kisses slowly
Firmo en las paredes de tu laberinto Sign the walls of your labyrinth
Y hacer de tu cuerpo todo un manuscrito And make your whole body a manuscript
Sube, sube, …, sube, sube Turn it up,… turn it up
_ _
Quiero ver bailar tu pelo I wanna see your hair dance
Quiero ser tu ritmo I wanna be your rhythm
Que le enseñes a mi boca I want you to teach my mouth
Tus lugares favoritos (favoritos, favoritos baby) Your favourite places (favorite, favorite baby)
Déjame sobrepasar tus zonas de peligro Let me surpass your danger zones
Hasta provocar tus gritos until your screams are provoked
Y que olvides tu apellido And that you forget your surname
_ _
Si te pido un beso ven dámelo If I ask you for a kiss, come give it to me
Yo sé que estás pensándolo I know that you’re thinking about it
Llevo tiempo intentándolo I’ve been trying for some time
Mami, esto es dando y dándolo Mommy this is giving and giving it
_ _
Sabes que tu corazón conmigo te hace bom, bom You know that your heart with me makes you bom bom
Sabes que esa beba está buscando de mi bom, bom You know that this baby is looking for my bom bom
_ _
Ven prueba de mi boca para ver cómo te sabe *1 Come test my mouth to see what it tastes like to you *1
Quiero, quiero, quiero ver cuánto amor a ti te cabe I want to see how much love do you have
Yo no tengo prisa, yo me quiero dar el viaje I’m not in a hurry, I want to do the trip
Empecemos lento, después salvaje Let’s start slowly then wildly
_ _
Pasito a pasito, suave suavecito Step by step, soft softly
Nos vamos pegando poquito a poquito We are going to get caught little by little
Cuando tú me besas con esa destreza When you kiss me so skillfully
Veo que eres malicia con delicadeza I think that you’re malicious delicately
_ _
Pasito a pasito, suave suavecito Step by step, soft softly
Nos vamos pegando, poquito a poquito We’re going to get caught, little by little
Y es que esa belleza es un rompecabezas And it’s just that this beauty is a puzzle
Pero pa montarlo aquí tengo la pieza But to put it together here I have the pieces
_ _
Despacito Slowly
Quiero respirar tu cuello despacito I wanna breathe your neck slowly
Deja que te diga cosas al oído Let me whisper things into your ear
Para que te acuerdes si no estás conmigo So that you remember if you’re not with me
_ _
Despacito Slowly
Quiero desnudarte a besos despacito I wanna undress you with kisses slowly
Firmo en las paredes de tu laberinto Sign the walls of your laberinth
Y hacer de tu cuerpo todo un manuscrito And make your whole body a manuscript
Sube, sube, sube, sube, sube Turn it up … turn it up
_ _
Quiero ver bailar tu pelo I wanna see you hair dance
Quiero ser tu ritmo I wanna be your rhythm
Que le enseñes a mi boca I want you to teach my mouth
Tus lugares favoritos (favoritos, favoritos baby) Your favourite places (favorite, favorite baby)
Déjame sobrepasar tus zonas de peligro Let me surpass your danger zones
Hasta provocar tus gritos Until your screams are provoked
Y que olvides tu apellido And that you forget your surname
_ _
Despacito *2 Slowly *2
Vamos a hacerlo en una playa en Puerto Rico We will do it on the beach in Puerto Rico
Hasta que las olas griten “¡ay, bendito!” Till the waves scream dear lord
Para que mi sello se quede contigo So that my seal stays with you
_ _
Pasito a pasito, suave suavecito Step by step, soft softly
Nos vamos pegando, poquito a poquito We’re going to get caught little by little
Que le enseñes a mi boca I want you to teach my mouth
Tus lugares favoritos (favoritos, favoritos baby) Your favourite places (favorite, favorite baby)
_ _
Pasito a pasito, suave suavecito Step by step, soft softly
Nos vamos pegando, poquito a poquito We’re going to get caught little by little
Hasta provocar tus gritos Until your screams are provoked
Y que olvides tu apellido And that you forget your surname

Despacito interpretation

Considering how erotic the lyrics are, it is quite amazing and inspiring, that these quite ordinary Spanish people just scream it out load for the whole to understand.
