Shakira is back with a new song!

From her new album, Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran [Women don’t cry anymore].

Not much to say here, let’s go!

Okay except for one thing: this is a slightly, okay, pretty, sexy song. So it would have certain references that aren’t exactly PG-13. Well, you’ve been warned at this point.

1. Normal: Original Spanish lyric

La letra
Lyrics

Tú tiene’ buena puntería
You have good aim
Sabe’ por dónde darme pa’ que quede rendía’, rendía’
You know where to give it to me so that I remain surrendered, surrendered

Tienes estilo para llamar mi atención
You have style that attracts my attention
Me tiras dardos, van directo al corazón
You throw darts at me, they go directly to the heart
Oh, y por más veces que trate
Oh, and no matter how many times I try
Oh, es imposible esquivarte
Oh, it is impossible to dodge you

Tú tiene’ buena puntería
You have good aim
Sabe’ por dónde darme pa’ que quede rendía’
You know where to give it to me so that I remain surrendered
Me ataca ‘onde más duele
Attack me where it hurts more
Tú a mí no me conviene’
You do not suit me
Pero en tu cama o la mía
But in your bed or mine
Todo eso a mí se me olvida, ah
All of that I forget, ah

Oh
Oh (La Cardi)

You, you got me stressin’, thinkin’ ’bout sexin’
Baby, keep me company
Dame de tu fire, apriétame las nalga’
Give me your fire, squeeze my butt
Aunque tú no seas pa’ mí (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, uh)
Although you are not for me
I got that night-night, put a man right to sleep
Yeah, I’m pretty lil’ thing from face to feet
I’m from the Bronx (Bronx), but I got a Georgia peach
I got a empanada, mama, that he love to eat (muah)

Loba like Shaki
She-wolf like Shakira
Tú ere’ mi tigre
You are my tiger
Muérdeme duro, de este culo nunca te olvide’
Bite me hard, I will never forget this ass

Tú tiene’ buena puntería
You have good aim
Sabe’ por dónde darme pa’ que quede rendía’
You know where to give it to me so that I remain surrendered
Me ataca ‘onde más duele
Attack me where it hurts more
Tú a mí no me conviene’
You do not suit me
Pero en tu cama o la mía
But in your bed or mine
Todo eso a mí se me olvida, ah
All of that I forget, ah

Oh
Oh-oh
Oh
Oh-oh

Donde pone el ojo pone la bala
Where the eye puts the bullet
Tiro al blanco y caigo como si nada
I shoot at the target and fall as if nothing happened
Pero si me robas dos besos
But if you steal two kisses from me
Al tercero ya ni lo pienso
I don’t even think about the third one
Paso to’a la noche indecisa
I pass the indecisive night
Y despierto con tu camisa
And wake up with your shirt
Ya no sé si quiero parar
I still don’t know if I want to stop

Y me derriten tus manos
And your hands melt me
Me drogan tus labios
Your lips drug me
Tus biceps me ponen a cien
Your biceps make me crazy
—[‘se poner a cien’ means ‘to make oneself crazy’]
A ti nunca te dirijo
I never direct you
Siempre llegas fijo
You always come steadily
Hasta mi punto G
Until my G-spot

Tú tiene’ buena puntería
You have good aim
Sabe’ como durarme, estos bobos se quedan sin batería
You know how to make me last, these fools run out of battery
Me tira dardo’ y no me conviene
He throws darts at me and it doesn’t suit me
Pero me encanta si adentro lo tiene
But I love if it is on the inside
Me pongo perra pa’ ti
I become bitchy for you
–excuse me what??
I know que de tu mente nunca va a salir Cardi B, ¡wuh!
I know that Cardi B will never leave your mind

Tú tiene’ buena puntería
You have good aim
Sabe’ por dónde darme pa’ que quede rendía’
You know where to give it to me so that I remain surrendered
Me ataca ‘onde más duele
Attack me where it hurts more
Tú a mí no me conviene’
You do not suit me
Pero en tu cama o la mía
But in your bed or mine
Todo eso a mí se me olvida, ah
All of that I forget, ah
