Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Princesa Y El Sapo by Alex Zurdo from Spanish to English.

Princess, remember to guard the castle

And the gate of your heart

Don't hand it to just any kid, no

Because interest disguises itself as love

The frog story says the frog looks for a princess for his condition

But don't become a tale for someone with bad intentions

You're not for that, for that

Tell that frog to forget the kiss and

You're not for that, for that

Tell him to wait, that it's a process and

You're not for that, for that

Tell that frog to forget the kiss and

You're not for that, for that

Tell him to wait, that it's a process

You're not for that, don't allow that to happen

The frog only came for the kiss

He hops and hops, pond to pond

He's already made a couple deals with the moon

A true interest from a gentleman doesn't cross the line

He has a sincere desire and he not only opens doors, he also opens Bibles

Let him wait, if he loves you let him wait

Let him grow desperate

And let him find out

That he's not what you want

You're not for that, for that

Tell that frog to forget the kiss and

You're not for that, for that

Tell him to wait, that it's a process and

You're not for that, for that

Tell that frog to forget the kiss and

You're not for that, for that

Tell him to wait, that it's a process

Come on be light, be light

You want a crown without virus, don't get on that bus

From that frog story, they imprison you with words

And he escapes like El Chapo

Be light, be light

You want a crown without virus, don't get on that bus

From that frog story, they imprison you with words

And he escapes like El Chapo

Because nobody's going to pull the moon down for you

So don't let them come at you with that

Nor the stars, not a single one

The frog only wants that kiss

You're not for that, for that

Tell that frog to forget the kiss and

You're not for that, for that

Tell him to wait, that it's a process

You're not for that, for that

Tell that frog to forget the kiss and

You're not for that, for that

Tell him to wait, that it's a process

Yo, you're pretty, you're a work of art

It's normal that guys start to look at you

But you have to take care of yourself

From all those frogs that only want to try you

I've seen and I've heard so many things

Painful stories of withered roses

Princess, you're very valuable

And only whoever you allow to will devalue you

Not everyone is the same

But frogs, even if they're handsome, send signals

Your heart isn't an experiment room

Don't let them come at you with stories

You're not for that, for that

Tell that frog to forget the kiss and

You're not for that, for that

Tell him to wait, that it's a process and

You're not for that, for that

Tell that frog to forget the kiss and

You're not for that, for that

Tell him to wait, that it's a process

Because nobody's going to pull the moon down for you

So don't let them come at you with that

Nor the stars, not a single one

The frog only wants that kiss

Because nobody's going to pull the moon down for you

So don't let them come at you with that

Nor the stars, not a single one

The frog only wants that kiss

desvalorarte — devalue you

Desvalorarte means "to devalue you" or "to make you feel less valuable." It's a strong and impactful verb that isn't heard in everyday conversation, making it stand out.

In the context of the song, it's used as a warning to a young woman: "solo va a desvalorarte quien tú se lo permitas" (only he who you allow will devalue you). This emphasizes the importance of self-worth and setting boundaries, making it a powerful and educational word choice for the song's message.

La Princesa y el Sapo feels like a hip-hop fairy tale remix. Guatemalan lyricist Alex Zurdo, together with Funky and Redimi2, turns the classic story on its head: this time the princess does not rush to kiss the frog. Instead, she is urged to guard her castle – her heart – with wisdom and patience. Over a lively beat, the trio warns that not every smooth-talker is a prince; some disguise pure interest as love. Their playful rhymes paint the “sapo” hopping from pond to pond, offering the moon and stars yet only chasing a quick kiss.

Beneath the fun metaphor lies a clear message of self-worth and empowerment. The song encourages young women to set boundaries, value their identity as hijas de un Rey (daughters of a King), and wait for someone whose actions open both doors and Bibles. Real love is patient, respectful and willing to wait through the “proceso.” So, when a frog comes along promising fairy-tale magic, the chorus invites every princess to smile and say: “Tú no estás pa’ eso.”
