Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Boquilla by Bomba Estéreo from Spanish to English.
Mi áfrica, mía
My Africa, mine
Y caminé y caminé
And I walked and I walked
En la punta el pie, lo vacilé
On the tip of the foot, I hesitated
Y caminé y caminé
And I walked and I walked
En la punta el pie, lo vacilé
On the tip of the foot, I hesitated
Y esta la nota que de pronto estalla
And this is the note that suddenly explodes
Cuando mi cabeza no puede parar
When my head can't stop
Y este ritmo viene dando batalla
And this rhythm is battling
Échate pa'lante, muévete pa'ca
Move forward, move over here
No lo estoy pensando yo no lo soñé
I'm not thinking about it, I didn't dream it
Sé que está pasando no lo imaginé
I know it's happening, I didn't imagine it
Y por mi cabeza no lo pensé
And in my head, I didn't think about it
Y caminé y caminé
And I walked and I walked
En la punta el pie, lo vacilé
On the tip of the foot, I hesitated
Y caminé y caminé
And I walked and I walked
En la punta el pie, lo vacilé
On the tip of the foot, I hesitated
Y caminé y caminé, yo no lo soñé, yo no lo inventé
And I walked and I walked, I didn't dream it, I didn't invent it
Y esta noche nos vamos pa'la boquilla
And tonight we're going to La Boquilla
Porque es una maravilla bailar cerca de la orilla
Because it's wonderful to dance near the shore
Oye pelado tu estás bien sudado
Hey, sweaty guy, you're well sweaty
Si no me muerdes y yo te muerdo
If you don't bite me and I bite you
Y como perro no domestica'o
And like an undomesticated dog
Como animal enjaula'o
Like an animal in a cage
Como lobito escapa'o
Like a little wolf that escaped
Si no me muerde, yo te muerdo
If you don't bite me, I'll bite you
Y enciéndelo! Y enciéndolo too
And light it up! And light it all up
Y enciéndelo! y enciéndolo to
And light it up! And light it all up
Y enciéndelo! y enciéndolo to y enciéndelo
And light it up! And light it all up and light it up
Y esta es la nota que depronto estalla
And this is the note that suddenly explodes
Cuando mi cabeza no puede parar
When my head can't stop
Y este ritmo viene dando batalla
And this rhythm is battling
Échate pa'lante
Move forward
Muévete pa'ca
Move over here
Y esta es la nota que depronto estalla
And this is the note that suddenly explodes
Cuando mi cabeza no puede parar
When my head can't stop
Y este ritmo viene dando batalla
And this rhythm is battling
Échate pa'lante
Move forward
Muévete pa'ca
Move over here
Pa'ca, pa'ca, pa'ca, pa'ca, pa'ca, pa'ca, pa'ca, pa'ca
Over here, over here, over here, over here, over here, over here, over here, over here
Si, y yo me voy pa'la boquilla, si!
Yes, and I'm going to La Boquilla, yes!
Porque es una maravilla, si!
Because it's wonderful, yes!
Y bailar cerca de la orilla
And to dance near the shore
En la punta el pie
On the tip of the foot
Yo no lo soñé
I didn't dream it
Ay porque es una maravilla, y bailar
Oh, because it's wonderful, and to dance
Cerca de la orilla
Near the shore
Si, si no me muerde y yo te muerdo
Yes, if you don't bite me and I bite you
Y como perro no domestica'o
And like an undomesticated dog
Como animal enjaula'o
Like an animal in a cage
Como lobito escapa'o
Like a little wolf that escaped
Con mi champeta e'medio e'lado
With my champeta in the middle
Si, si no me muerde y yo te muerdo
Yes, if you don't bite me and I bite you
Si no me muerde yo te muerdo
If you don't bite me, I'll bite you
Mi áfrica, mía
My Africa, mine
