Yeah the eyes of lioness
Feel the power, they ain't lying
A little look, a little touch
You know the power of silence

The song's title means "fire" in Spanish, and its chorus repeats this word as a declaration of the heat and intensity of the singer's emotions. She calls on her lover to look into her eyes, which she likens to those of a lioness, suggesting that she is a powerful and confident woman. The refrain "You got me pelican fly-fly-flyin'" is a playful reference to the way pelicans glide during flight, indicating that the singer feels light and free in the presence of this person.

She truly changed the game for pop girlies in Eurovision. This entry had a stronger impact on the contest than the actual winner that year.
