La Noche Es Corta Lyrics in English by Esteman, Jose Quinonez
Placer translates to "pleasure." While it might seem common, its usage in this song is particularly enticing because it sets a tone of deep appreciation for life's fleeting moments.
Esteman sings, "Quiero tener el placer de vivir otra noche" (I want to have the pleasure of living another night). This isn't just about simple enjoyment; it's about savoring the profound beauty and experience of the night, making it a memorable and engaging word choice that invites listeners to explore the song's themes of living fully.
Esteman teams up with Jose Quiñonez for a night that's disappearing fast. It opens wanting one more of them — "Quiero tener el placer" ("I want to have the pleasure") "De vivir otra noche" ("of living another night") — moonlit and deep enough to actually feel: "sentir la belleza" ("feel the beauty"), "De la noche profunda" ("of the deep night"). The hook keeps stating the obvious like a countdown: "Por que la noche es corta" ("because the night is short").
By the last third it stops being a wish and turns into an instruction — "Baila, en lo negro se baila" ("Dance, you dance in the dark") — repeated until the song runs out along with the night it's singing about.
