Mil Veces Lyrics in English by Anitta
Intenciones translates to "intentions" in English. It's a word that immediately sparks curiosity, hinting at deeper meanings and unspoken desires.
In Anitta's song, the line "Tenemos malas intenciones" (We have bad intentions) is particularly enticing. It suggests a forbidden attraction and a willingness to act on impulses, despite knowing the potential consequences. This word perfectly captures the song's theme of a passionate, secretive affair, making it memorable and intriguing for a learner.
Brazilian pop star Anitta turns forbidden temptation into pure, hypnotic energy in "Mil Veces". Right from the start, she admits the whole thing is off-limits with "Pero es prohibido, lo sé" ("But it's forbidden, I know"). Yet, keeping it a secret only adds fuel to the fire. She plays a fun trick on us with the concept of repetition: she claims "Ya lo hemos hecho mil veces / En mi mente, pero hoy es diferente" ("We've already done it a thousand times / In my mind, but today is different"). She has replayed the fantasy endlessly in her head, and now she is ready to make it a reality behind closed doors.
Notice how she switches into English slang to set the rules. Singing "Nos vemos, lo hacemos, lowkey" ("We see each other, we do it, quietly / secretly"), she borrows lowkey to mean keeping their hookups strictly discreet and hush-hush. Once they finally lock the door, she promises "De mi cuarto no vamos a salir" ("We won't leave my room"), throwing out any relationship rules ("No le pongamos condiciones" ["Let's not set conditions"]) in favor of direct, unfiltered physical desire. It is punchy, extremely forward, and leaves zero doubt about what she wants.
