Night falls and there are no stars
I'm still here thinking about her
And in the instant that I saw her
When I saw her among all the people
Already dancing nice and slow
Every time closer together
She felt like trying
A cumbia in other arms
I'm very shy and I don't dance
That in your hands I'm short of breath
That having you so near and so far
That in your hands I'm short of breath
That my heart beats to another rhythm
If you're going to kill me
That it be bit by bit, babe
My chichi, El Guaynaabichy
I've asked God for help
On how to find the cure
And even though in dreams she was already mine
The day still hasn't come
And it gives her pleasure
Even though her indifference
That in your hands I'm short of breath
That having you so near and so far
That in your hands I'm short of breath
That my heart beats to another rhythm
