MERA MA Lyrics in English by Cauty, Alexis Y Fido
Revolú is Caribbean slang for a commotion, mess, or chaotic situation. In the song, "Ponte salvaje pa' formar el revolú" means “get wild and stir up the chaos,” making this a memorable example of regional Spanish and shortened pronunciation.
“MERA MA” is a cheeky, late-night perreo track built around a simple arrangement: no romance, no social-media promises, just dancing, flirting, and meeting up when the mood hits. The singer asks, “Dime pa' dónde va', todavía queda má'” [Tell me where you're going, there is still more time], then tells her to drop the serious attitude because his flow is celebrity-level. “Tú me llamas si tú 'tás lonely” [You call me if you're lonely] makes the deal clear: if she wants company, she can call, but if not, he is heading to a party. “Que yo no estoy pa' amore'” [I'm not here for love] is blunt, while “El violín déjaselo a Frabi” [Leave the violin to Frabi] jokes about leaving the romantic soundtrack to someone else.
The verses turn the flirtation much more explicit. “Nosotro' un ratito rico, eso y ya” [We have a good little time together, and that's it] describes a casual encounter, while “quemar caloría'” [burn calories] is a playful euphemism for sex. The song moves through a jacuzzi, smoking, drinks, and a wild club night, with lines about her getting drunk enough to say “Te amo” [I love you]. The repeated command “Apaga la lu', esa e' la actitud” [Turn off the light, that's the attitude] sets up the song's party rule: stop worrying about appearances, turn down the lights, and “ponte salvaje pa' formar el revolú” [get wild and make a commotion]. Even the title's “Mera ma'” is a casual Puerto Rican-style call for attention, like “Hey, girl,” matching the song's teasing, direct voice.
