Date La Vuelta Lyrics in English by Luis Fonsi, Sebastián Yatra, Nicky Jam

Vacílalo is a popular slang command that doesn't have a single, direct translation. It comes from the verb vacilar and in this context means 'to enjoy it', 'live it up', or 'get into the groove'. It's a word you'll hear often in energetic reggaetón and salsa music.

In "Date La Vuelta," the artists shout 'Vacílalo, vacílalo' to invite everyone to let loose and feel the music on the dance floor. It perfectly captures the fun, party-like atmosphere of the song and is a fantastic word to learn for sounding like a native speaker.

Puerto Rican singer Luis Fonsi teams up with Sebastián Yatra and Nicky Jam to deliver a total party track built around one simple command: "Date la vuelta, mami / Suéltate el pelo para mi" ("Turn around, girl / Let your hair down for me"). The mood is pure late-night flirting on the dance floor. Fonsi sets the scene admiring a short dress with "La noche está tan perfecta, que bien te ves" ("The night is so perfect, you look so good"), putting her entirely in control by promising "Todo lo hacemos a tu manera" ("We do everything your way").

The verses bring in heavy regional flavor and clever shout-outs. Nicky Jam jokes about losing his cool ("Yo vine normal y ella me sacó el animal" / "I came acting normal and she brought the beast out of me") and mentions singer Natti Natasha's hit when he raps "Como Natti bien criminal" ("Like Natti, totally criminal"). He then pitches an ambitious vacation map, offering to fly her from Puerto Rico to Cartagena, and from Punta Cana straight to Venezuela. Yatra slides in with smooth Colombian slang like "Vos sos una princesa bien mala y traviesa" ("You are a princess who is bad and mischievous") and hypes the room with "Vacílalo" ("Enjoy it / Party hard"). The whole track aims to freeze a wild night in place: "Como si congeláramos este momento" ("As if we froze this moment").
