Below, I translated the lyrics of the song No Te Vayas [Remix] by Carlos Vives from Spanish to English.

Nananai, nanananaina

Today I look at you and I start to think

If destiny really exists

And we're two souls that look for each other everywhere

Love calls you and that's where it is

And it's better not to let it slip away

Because what's yours is waiting for you out there

That your life is a beautiful flower

And I want to be your hummingbird

And flap my wings with joy

That your voice fills my heart

That your laugh is like a song

The soundtrack of my life

And don't go

Let it give you its love, crazy, in spring

Don't go

Let the gentle rain wet the earth

And don't go

Let my heart reach the planets and even the sun

When night already sleeps, today the flower blooms

Like the sand and the sea

Like a coffee on waking

Naturally I started to need you

Without overthinking, to steal your heart

I don't want you to fail me, you were asking me

Let's make a promise for life

And I, who said that I wouldn't fall in love

Now my heart beats like it didn't beat before

And don't go

I already have the size for your ring

Let's build a house on the beach together

With you I cross the line

And don't go

I already have the size for your ring

Let's build a house on the beach together

I win the medal

We'll get married in Cartagena, next to the wall

And don't go

Let it give you its love, crazy, in spring

Don't go

Let the gentle rain wet the earth

And don't go

Let my heart reach the planets and even the sun

And when the night sleeps, the flower blooms

Bring the soft sand from your hands

Bring the sweet water of your laugh

Bring the softest bread from your grain

Bring the fresh pizza from the corner

Let's go to the beach since the moon is waning

Let's dance until the body holds up

And if hunger forces us to give up

Bring on some asopao and let the party keep going

And don't go

Let it give you its love, crazy, in spring

Don't go

Let the gentle rain wet the earth

And don't go

Let my heart reach the planets and even the sun

And when night already sleeps, the flower blooms

Today the flower blooms, today the flower blooms

And the maestro, Carlos Vives

picaflor — hummingbird / flirt

Picaflor is a fascinating word with two meanings. Literally, it breaks down to picar (to peck) and flor (flower), which is the Spanish word for "hummingbird"!

In some countries, it's also slang for a "flirt" or a "player"—someone who flits from flower to flower. In this song, Carlos Vives uses it poetically, singing "Que tú vida es una hermosa flor y yo quiero ser tu picaflor" (Your life is a beautiful flower and I want to be your hummingbird), creating a beautiful and romantic image.

“No Te Vayas [Remix]” is a sun-soaked love anthem where Carlos Vives and Manuel Turizo beg a special someone to stay right here. From the first playful “nananai,” the singers paint love as something written in the stars: two souls that finally find each other and should never let go. Vives compares his partner’s life to a beautiful flower and imagines himself as a joyful hummingbird fluttering around her, while Turizo confesses that he once swore he would never fall in love…but now his heart races like never before.

The chorus’s constant plea, “no te vayas,” is backed by vivid Caribbean scenes: rain that freshens the earth, moonlit dances on the beach, spontaneous trips for pizza, and dreams of a seaside house and a wedding beside the old walls of Cartagena. It is a feel-good celebration of destiny, romance, and the everyday moments that make love unforgettable, all wrapped in the tropical rhythms that have made Vives a Colombian icon.
