Verse 1
And I'm here thinking that you are pretty
Oh, I think that if I try I can make you fall in love
It's not a coincidence that I have you close
At a short distance to be able to kiss you
Touch me, I know that we like each other, don't say no
Feel with your hand what I feel today
This is very real, that you're going to like this
And it's true
That I haven't been a saint and neither the worst
If I have been a womanizer it's because of lack of love
But that with your arms could change
Chorus 1
And I want to live life dancing with you
And all the time live in your arms
And walk around the world, barefoot
And I want to live life dancing with you
And that we have the children that you want
You tell me if you like the idea
Verse 2
If you want, babe, that we have several children
For me it's better, for me it's better
Because that way I would live only practicing it
With you love
And if you want, babe, that we have several children
For me it's better, for me it's better
Because that way I would live only practicing it
With you love
Let's go to practice, don't be shy
I want to know you in intimacy
Let's do it very slow, slowly
With your caresses I want to reach space
I'm your sugar daddy, and you are my babe
All over the room we'll do a safari
Something exotic, erotic
I promise it's going to be magnificent
And let's run away
Where nobody sees us
And we'll go to Urumita
Urumita is a town in Colombia
Oh, that land is pretty
Chorus 2
And! I want to live dancing life with you
And all the time live in your arms
And walk around the world, barefoot
And I want to live life dancing with you
And that we have the children that you want
You tell me if you like the idea
Oah, Speak, Hey Silvestre
In Valledupar we drink a whiskey
But in Medallo we drink a guaro, man
Chorus 3
And! I want to live dancing life with you
And all the time live in your arms
And walk around the world, barefoot
And I want to live life dancing with you
And that we have the children that you want
You tell me if you like the idea
If you want, babe, that we have several children for me it's better, for me it's better
Because that way I would live only practicing it with you love
With you love
And if you want, babe, that we have several children for me it's better
Because that way I would live only
Practicing it with you love
Over and over again

güaro — slang for aguardiente

Güaro is a popular slang term in Colombia for aguardiente, a strong, anise-flavored liquor that is a staple of local culture and social gatherings.

In the song, Silvestre Dangond sings about drinking whiskey in one city and güaro in "Medallo" (slang for Medellín), giving the listener a taste of authentic Colombian party culture. Learning fun, regional words like this is a great way to sound more like a native speaker and understand the real-world context behind the language.

Colombian vallenato star Silvestre Dangond teams up with Maluma for a track all about falling hard and making ridiculously big plans on the dance floor. The narrator comes clean right away about his messy past: "Si he sido un mujeriego es por falta de amor" ("If I've been a womanizer, it's for lack of love"). His grand solution? Giving up the bachelor life to dance through the world barefoot in her arms ("caminar por el mundo, descalzo"). He even offers to start a massive family, delivering the cheeky punchline that having tons of kids just means spending all his time "practicing" with her: "viviría solamente practicándolo contigo amor" ("I'd spend my life just practicing it with you, my love").

Along the way, the lyrics drop you right into Colombian party geography. Silvestre dreams of sneaking away to his hometown, shouting "nos vamos pa' Urumita, ay, que esa tierra es bonita" ("let's go to Urumita, oh, that land is beautiful"). Maluma chimes in to compare how they drink across regions, telling Silvestre that in Valledupar (the capital of vallenato) people sip whisky, while back home in Medallo (local slang for Medellín) they throw back "un güaro" (short for aguardiente, Colombia's anise-flavored liquor). It is flirtatious, wildly over-the-top, and shamelessly fun.
