Despacito
Mini Pop Kids Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So thankful for that, it's such a blessin', yeah
Turn every situation into Heaven, yeah
My sunrise on the darkest day
Got me feelin' some kind of way
Making me remember every moment slowly
You fit me, tailor-made love, how you put it on
Got the only key, know how to turn it on
Baby, take it slow so we can last long
Tú, tú eres el imán y yo soy el metal
Me voy acercando y voy armando el plan
Sólo con pensarlo se acelera el pulso
Oh, yeah
Ya, ya me está gustando más de lo normal
Todos mis sentidos van pidiendo más
Eso hay que contarlo sin ningún apuro
Despacito
Quiero respirar con la vida despacito
Deja que te diga cosas al oído
Para que te acuerdes si no estás conmigo
Despacito
Quiero respirar con la vida despacito
Deja que te diga cosas al oído
Para que te acuerdes si no estás conmigo
Despacito
Quiero ver bailar tu pelo
Quiero ser tu ritmo
Que le enseñes a mi mente
Tus canciones favoritas
(Ey, ey)
Vamos a sobrepasar las zonas de peligro
Hasta encontrar el rumbo
Y retomemos el camino
Si te pido ritmo, dámelo
Yo sé que estoy pensándolo
Llevo tiempo intentándolo
Cantándolo, bailándolo
Sabes que tu corazón te está cantando, hace "bam, bam"
Sabes que esta canción te está buscando, hace "bam, bam"
Canta esta canción que la gente baila y sabe
Quiero, quiero, quiero ver cuánto, amor, te sabes
No tenemos prisa, haremos el viaje
Empecemos lento, después salvaje
Pasito a pasito, suave suavecito
Vamos escuchando, poquito a poquito
Cuando tú me cantas con esa destreza
Veo que el mundo tiene delicadeza
Pasito a pasito, suave suavecito
Vamos escuchando, poquito a poquito
Y es que esta belleza es un rompecabezas
Vamos a hacer que el mundo haga esta proeza
Despacito
Quiero respirar con la vida despacito
Deja que te diga cosas al oído
Para que te acuerdes si no estás conmigo
Despacito
Quiero respirar con la vida despacito
Deja que te diga cosas al oído
Para que te acuerdes si no estás conmigo
Despacito
Quiero ver bailar tu pelo
Quiero ser tu ritmo
Que le enseñes a mi mente
Tus canciones favoritas
Vamos a sobrepasar las zonas de peligro
Hasta encontrar el rumbo
Y retomemos el camino
Despacito
This is how we do it down in Puerto Rico
I just wanna hear you singing, "¡Ay, Bendito!"
I can dance forever cuando encuentre el ritmo
Pasito a pasito, suave suavecito
Nos vamos escuchando, poquito a poquito
Cuando tú me cantas con esa destreza
Veo que el mundo tiene delicadeza
Pasito a pasito, suave suavecito
Nos vamos escuchando, poquito a poquito
Y es que esta belleza es un rompecabezas
Vamos a hacer que el mundo haga esta proeza
Despacito
The Mini Pop Kids' song Despacito is a romantic song with a Latin beat that talks about taking things slow in life and cherishing every moment. The song begins with an invitation to someone to come over in the singer's direction and acknowledges the blessing that their presence brings. The singer then describes their love interest as their tailor-made love, someone who fits them perfectly and knows how to turn them on. The lyrics mention the way this person sings in the singer's ear, and the words they hear are the only ones they want to hear. The singer then asks their love interest to take things slow so that they can make their love last long.
The second verse is sung in Spanish and begins with the metaphor "Tú eres el imán y yo soy el metal" (You are the magnet, and I am the metal). The singer talks about how their pulse quickens just by thinking about their love interest, and they want more of them. The singer wants to take things slow and enjoy every moment, wants to whisper sweet words in their love interest's ear so that they remember them even if they are apart.
The chorus "Despacito" is repeated throughout the song, which means "slowly" or "take it slow". The singer wants to breathe in every moment slowly and cherish them. The song then talks about wanting to dance with their love interest and become their rhythm. The lyrics mention that they want to surpass dangerous zones, find their path, and continue their journey together, taking things slow.
