Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Que Tire Pa Lante by Daddy Yankee from Spanish to English.

You're daring

You talked a lot but you have no way out

Now show me, that you drop it

That you drop it, that you push forward

That you push forward with your movement

If you see her, dancing she's the favorite

If you see her, how she loosens that little waist

If you see her, we're not about feelings here

Babe, what you want is fire!

Model those hot pants for me

You want this, don't play dumb, take it!

Tsunami warning, stay alert

You snooze on me, the wave carries you

Full clip when I shoot it

I'm one of the bad guys, also one of the good guys

Ferrari flow that breaks the street

A horse with no brakes

I show up marking territory

My crew with all the big guns

We never turn the show down

We always keep it premiering

Babe, what you've got is power

Dancing, your flow navigates more than a browser

With that move, I win the case

Move it, give it a whip

Smooth, that's how I like it

Smooth, tell me, how you want it? Smooth, uh-huh

You asked for more, don't talk anymore, tell me, uh-huh

That you drop it, that you push forward

That you push forward with your champion moves

That you drop it, that you push forward

That you push forward with your movement

If you see her, dancing she's the favorite

If you see her, how she loosens that little waist

If you see her, we're not about feelings here

Babe, what you want is fire!

Model those hot pants for me

You want this, don't play dumb, take it!

Tsunami warning, stay alert

You snooze on me, the wave carries you

You have a baby face but you're a killa

I like how you move, babe, I like how you party

A couple of wolves watch you

But you're rolling with Godzilla

These people looked like sneakers, you had them in line

So tell me babe, tell me babe, tell me babe, what's up?

We're live, everybody is recording you

Set the trend, you gotta shine today

Because I steal the show when I give it to you

Smooth, that's how I like it

Smooth, tell me, how you want it? Smooth, uh-huh

You asked for more, don't talk anymore, tell me, uh-huh

You're daring

You talked a lot, but you have no way out

Now show me, that you drop it

That you drop it, that you push forward

That you push forward with your movement

If you see her, dancing she's the favorite

If you see her, how she loosens that little waist

If you see her, we're not about feelings here

Babe, what you want is fire!

I like you, I like you, I like you, babe, ay ay

If you win I go with you

I like you, I like you, I like you, babe, ay ay

If you lose you go with me

I like you, I like you, I like you, babe, ay ay

If you win I go with you

I like you, I like you, I like you, babe, ay ay

If you lose you go with me

SONG MEANING

“Que Tire Pa Lante” is Daddy Yankee’s high-voltage invitation to own the dance floor. Over a turbo-charged reggaetón beat, the Puerto Rican superstar cheers on a bold, confident woman: “tú eres atrevida… demuéstrame” (you’re daring… show me). The hook, “que tire pa’ lante,” literally means “throw it forward,” but here it doubles as a playful challenge to keep the hips moving and the party surging ahead. Each line is packed with kinetic imagery—tsunami warnings, roaring Ferraris, wild horses without brakes—painting the club as a place where only fearless energy survives.

Beneath the swagger lies a message of empowerment and friendly competition. Yankee praises the dancer’s “power,” crowns her the crowd’s “favorita,” and promises that whoever wins this dance-off will walk away with him. The song celebrates self-confidence, body positivity, and living in the moment: no sappy feelings, just pure fuego. When Daddy Yankee shouts “¡Que tire!” he is rallying everyone, listeners included, to drop their inhibitions and move forward—harder, faster, and with unstoppable style.
