Verse 1

Here you are

You can't stop anymore

Where are you going?

If I'm crazy to have you

How would I know

That I'd see you again

Chorus 1

You confuse me, I don't know what to do

What I want is to have fun

Or: What I want is to have a good time

I'm afraid that I'll like it

Tener miedo translates directly as 'to have fear' but it means 'to be afraid'

And that I'm going to go crazy

If that happens I'll continue

With you here like a faithful dog

I'm afraid that I'll like it

And that I'm going to go crazy

Verse 2

I'm serious babe, I'm not playing

So much time passes and nothing

I can't bear this desire

Or: I can't stand dealing with this desire

And although you avoid me, I continue wanting you

Or: And even if you dodge me, I keep wanting you

They say that you're dangerous

I don't listen to those things

'Hacer caso' is an expression meaning 'to take notice of' / 'to pay attention' / 'to listen to'

Tell me what's happening

You have me crazy, I'm crazy in love

Or: You have me like a madman, I'm a madman in love

I want to know how much you're going to insist

And how far you'd come for me

I'm really sorry for the wait

But it'll be worth it when I'm kissing you

The way you move like this

I swear I'm going to melt

Or: I swear to you that I'm going to melt

You know that I'm good

As much as I avoid you you continue wanting me

Or: No matter how much I dodge you, you keep wanting me

Chorus 2

You confuse me, I don't know what to do

What I want is to have fun

I'm afraid that I'll like it

And that I'm going to go crazy

If that happens I'll continue

With you here like a faithful dog

I'm afraid that I'll like it

And that I'm going to go crazy

Verse 3

I don't ask for anything extraordinary

Just a man of truth

Or: Just a real man

That throws himself in the mud for me

That changes the lightbulbs and even washes my car

I want a guy attentive and affectionate

But that isn't very jealous

That in the street is a prince

But that in my bed is wild and dangerous

You can ask what you want from me

I'd do anything for you

I'm really sorry for the wait

But it'll be worth it when I'm kissing you

I'm sure I'm made for you

I swear I won't make you suffer

Or: I swear to you that I won't make you suffer

Like I told you, baby

As much as you avoid me, I continue wanting you

Or: No matter how much you dodge me, I keep wanting you

Chorus 3

You confuse me, I don't know what to do

What I want is to have fun

I'm afraid that I'll like it

And that I'm going to go crazy

If that happens I'll continue

With you here like a faithful dog

I'm afraid that I'll like it

And that I'm going to go crazy

Outro

Here you are

You can't stop anymore

Where are you going?

If I'm crazy to have you

SONG MEANING

“Perro Fiel” is a playful, flirt-charged duet where Shakira and Nicky Jam turn romantic chemistry into a game of cat-and-mouse (or dog-and-owner!). Both singers admit they are hooked on each other’s vibe: they feel the rush of a new crush, worry about going “crazy,” yet keep coming back for more. The title literally means “Faithful Dog,” and that image runs through the chorus as Nicky Jam pledges to stay by Shakira’s side with puppy-like devotion if their attraction tips into full-blown love.

Beneath the catchy reggaeton beat lies a fun wish list of modern love. Shakira teases that she wants a caring guy who can change lightbulbs, wash her car, and be both a gentleman in public and “wild and dangerous” in private. Nicky Jam answers by saying he will do anything to win her over. The song celebrates mutual desire, playful confidence, and the thrill of chasing someone who might finally say “yes.” It is the sound of two Latin-pop superstars daring each other to jump into love, promising loyalty, laughter, and plenty of dance-floor heat.
