La cintura [English translation]

She stands out when she walks

She's making an impression

Every day when gets up

She shines like the sun

Her silk dress

Warms my heart

Like in a novela1

On TV

I move closer to you

Let's dance, let's play

Come closer

Because my waist

Needs your help

I don't have it in my veins2

And I can't control it

I think that my waist

Clashes with my culture

I trip up on the sand

I can't control myself anymore

And going down, going down eh

Forgetting, forgetting

That I'm dancing, dancing eh

And like this until dawn

Because my waist

Needs your help

I don't have it in my veins

I'm going to learn to control

My waist, waist

Why don't we go down to the beach?

To practice like this

Early in the morning

So there's nobody else

When I dance with you

You body brings me warmth

Kiss to kiss

My fruit of passion

I move closer to you

Let's dance, let's play

Come closer

Because my waist

Needs your help

I don't have it in my veins

And I can't control it

And going down, going down eh

Forgetting, forgetting

That I'm dancing, dancing eh

And like this until dawn

Because my waist

Needs your help

I don't have it in my veins

I'm going to learn to control

My waist, waist

Come to me, come to me

Like the ocean waves

Come to me, come to me

I can't stop anymore

Come to me, come to me

Like the ocean waves

Come to me I can't stop anymore

And going down, going down eh

Forgetting, forgetting

That I'm dancing, dancing eh

And like this until dawn

Because my waist

Needs your help

I don't have it in my veins

I'm going to learn to control

My waist, waist

And going down, going down eh

Forgetting, forgetting

That I'm dancing, dancing eh

And like this until dawn

My waist, waist
