[English]

I've been informed that your boyfriend is a bland bore

You, who are a fire, and he is so cold

Your little friend says he's jealous, he doesn't want me to be your friend

He suspects I'm a pirate and will steal his flower

Don't be surprised

If one night

I enter your room and once again I make you mine

You know well

My mistakes

The selfishness of owning your life

You are mine, mine, mine

Don't act crazy, you already knew that very well

If you get married

On your wedding day

I tell your husband with laughter

That she is only borrowed

The woman who loves

Because you still belong to me (Mine)

...

You won't forget Romeo

Ah ah

Delicious

They say one nail drives out another, but that's just a rhyme

There is no tool that can take away my love

Don't be surprised

If one night

I enter your room and once again I make you mine

You know well

My mistakes

The selfishness of owning your life

You are mine, mine, mine

Don't act crazy, you already knew that very well

If you get married

On your wedding day

I tell your husband with laughter

That she is only borrowed

The woman who loves

Because you still belong to me (Mine, mine, mine)

...

I wish you the best

And the best is me

The King

You know your heart is mine

And you'll love me forever

You know your heart is mine

And you'll love me forever

Baby, your heart is mine

And you'll love me forever

Baby, your heart is mine

And you'll love me forever

Don't be surprised

If one night

I enter your room and once again I make you mine

You know well

My mistakes

The selfishness of owning your life

You are mine, mine, mine, mine

Don't act crazy, you already knew that very well

If you get married

On your wedding day

I tell your husband with laughter (ha ha ha ha ha)

That she is only borrowed

The woman who loves

Because you still belong to me

[Spanish]

Ya me han informado que tu novio es un insípido aburrido

Tú que eres fogata y el tan frío

Dice tu amiguita que es celoso, no quiere que sea tu amigo

Sospecha que soy un pirata y robaré su flor

No te asombres

Si una noche

Entro a tu cuarto y nuevamente te hago mía

Bien conoces

Mis errores

El egoísmo de ser dueño de tu vida

Eres mía, mía, mía

No te hagas la loca, eso muy bien ya lo sabías

Si tú te casas

El día de tu boda

Le digo a tu esposo con risas

Que solo es prestada

La mujer que ama

Porque sigues siendo mía (Mía)

You won't forget Romeo

Ah ah

Gostoso

Dicen que un clavo saca un clavo pero eso es solo rima

No existe una herramienta que saque mi amor

No te asombres

Si una noche

Entro a tu cuarto y nuevamente te hago mía

Bien conoces

Mis errores

El egoísmo de ser dueño de tu vida

Eres mía, mía, mía

No te hagas la loca, eso muy bien ya lo sabías

Si tú te casas

El día de tu boda

Le digo a tu esposo con risas

Que solo es prestada

La mujer que ama

Porque sigues siendo mía (Mía mía mía)

Te deseo lo mejor

Y el mejor, soy yo

The King

You know your heart is mine

And you'll love me forever

You know your heart is mine

And you'll love me forever

Baby, your heart is mine

And you'll love me forever

Baby, your heart is mine

And you'll love me forever

No te asombres

Si una noche

Entro a tu cuarto y nuevamente te hago mía

Bien conoces

Mis errores

El egoísmo de ser dueño de tu vida

Eres mía, mía mía mía

No te hagas la loca, eso muy bien ya lo sabías

Si tu te casas

El día de tu boda

Le digo a tu esposo con risas (ha ha ha ha ha)

Que solo es prestada

La mujer que ama

Porque sigues siendo mía
