Un Poquito Lyrics in English Diego Torres , Carlos Vives

Home / Lyrics Translation / Diego Torres / Un Poquito

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Un Poquito by Diego Torres from Spanish to English.

Verse 1

Falling in love isn't trendy

Nobody wants to be sincere anymore

But in you I find

Everything, everything, everything that I want

From February to February

Medellín or Buenos Aires

I close my eyes and think of you

It has become inevitable for me

Chorus 1

I don't want to be everything in your life

Nor hurt your pride

And I've got one or two debts

For making myself a bit

Yours, a little bit yours

Even if they say that I'm not your type

I certify this love before a judge

Yours, a little bit yours

Even if you think that I'm crazy

I'm just in love and you don't see it

And you don't see me

That at night I'm out searching

And you're thinking about something else

And you don't see me

Verse 2

And even if they say that what we have is a failure

I'd rather prove it in your arms

How easy it is to say because they don't know

That nobody has the key to love!

There are people who like to talk from outside

And for loving you there's no school

If I have to learn let it be with you

And if you want to talk let it be with me

Chorus 2

I don't want to be everything in your life

Nor hurt your pride

And I've got one or two debts

For making myself a bit

Yours, a little bit yours

Even if they say that I'm not your type

I certify this love before a judge

Yours, a little bit yours

Don't keep turning life over

We have no other way out

And you don't see it

Oh, you don't see me!

That at night I'm out searching

And you're thinking about something else

And you don't see me

Verse 3

I haven't written the most beautiful love story

Little by little I'm eating it all up

I want to be the hero of your favorite tale

Even if a bear shows up, I'll scare it off in a second

For you I'd cross even the Sahara desert

Even if I end up being the richest man

Verse 3

Even if I have nothing

I tore all my socks following your steps

Carrying your bags is my greatest pride

I run, sing, jump, I'm an actor and ride in a balloon

I'm capable of anything to make myself a bit yours

Outro

Yours, I'm a little bit yours

A little bit yours, a little bit mine

So that you know why this life is the most beautiful

Yours, a little bit yours

I'm a little bit yours

You're a little bit mine

A little bit

SONG MEANING

Un Poquito is a joyful declaration that even in a world where “being in love isn’t trendy,” some hearts still refuse to play it cool. Diego Torres and Carlos Vives trade playful promises and clever confessions, admitting that they do not need grand fairy-tale perfection—just un poquito, a little bit of space inside the other person’s life. From Medellín to Buenos Aires, the singers picture themselves crossing deserts, scaring off bears, or even pleading their case in court, all to prove a simple point: real affection is louder than gossip and braver than pride.

The lyrics celebrate imperfect but determined love. They acknowledge doubts (“maybe I’m not your type”) and outside criticism (“people say we’re doomed”), yet answer every obstacle with humor, rhythm, and wholehearted devotion. By the chorus, “tuyo, un poquito tuyo” becomes a catchy mantra that turns vulnerability into strength. The song’s upbeat tropical groove matches its message: love does not have to be perfect or fashionable; it only needs to be sincere, fun, and shared—even if it’s just a little bit.
