[English]

Dark-haired girl with big eyes

How lovely the shine of your shoulders

I'd like to take you to the sea

And never return to the city

And be able to enjoy the day always

Lying in the sun

Without your swimsuit

Lying in the sun

Uh-uh

And never return to the city

...

How wonderfully tropical you smell

Cucumber with chili and sea salt

I can see

A sparkle of sand

Stuck to your tanned color

That shines when reflecting the sun

I'd like to sail like sweat

Your dark skin

Headed to turn myself into vapor

And lying in the sun

Without your swimsuit

Lying in the sun

Uh-uh-uh

And lying in the sun

Without your swimsuit

And lying in the sun

Uh-uh-uh

And be able to enjoy the day always

Lying in the sun

Without your swimsuit

Without your swimsuit

Uh-uh-uh

And never return to the city

...

[Spanish]

Morena de grandes ojos

Qué lindo brillo tienen tus hombros

Quisiera llevarte al mar

Y nunca regresar a la ciudad

Y poder disfrutar del día siempre

Echados al sol

Sin tu bañador

Echados al sol

Uh-uh

Y nunca regresar a la ciudad

Qué rico hueles a tropical

Pepino con chile y sal de mar

Puedo ver

Un destello de arena

Pegado a tu color tostado

Que brilla al reflejar el sol

Quisiera navegar cual sudor

Tu piel morena

Rumbo a hacerme vapor

Y echados al sol

Sin tu bañador

Echarnos al sol

Uh-uh-uh

Y echarnos al sol

Sin tu bañador

Y echarnos al sol

Uh-uh-uh

Y poder disfrutar del día siempre

Echarnos al sol

Sin tu bañador

Sin tu bañador

Uh-uh-uh

Y nunca regresar a la ciudad
