Sweet
Y este es el ritmo de La Sonora Dinamita
And this is the rhythm of La Sonora Dinamita
Y su compa Dasa
And his buddy Dasa
Con ritmo y sabor, eh
With rhythm and flavor, eh
Ahí le va, uh-uh-uh
Here it goes, uh-uh-uh
Que mi novia sí sabe cómo se baila la cumbia
That my girlfriend really knows how to dance cumbia
Y al sonar los tambores, si no la invito me invita ella
And when the drums sound, if I don't invite her, she invites me
Y como enamorado yo la voy apretando
And like a lover, I'm holding her tight
Me voy acomodando para bailar todo el tiempo así
I'm getting comfortable to dance like this all the time
Ella que es bailadora, ay, de la cumbia señora
She who is a dancer, oh, a cumbia master
Me dice que me adora, pero apretao' no se baila cumbia
She tells me she adores me, but cumbia isn't danced tight
Se me suelta y se aparta, se agarra su pollera
She lets go of me and moves away, she grabs her skirt
Y al menear su cadera, sonriendo altanera me dice
And as she sways her hip, smiling haughtily she tells me
Baila, baila
Dance, dance
Báilame la suavecita
Dance the smooth one for me
Mírame, sígueme, acósame
Look at me, follow me, chase me
Que la cumbia sabrosita si la bailas sueltecita y abriendo los brazos
Because the tasty cumbia if you dance it loose and opening your arms
Báilame la suavecita
Dance the smooth one for me
Mírame, sígueme, acósame
Look at me, follow me, chase me
Que la cumbia sabrosita si la bailas sueltecita y abriendo los brazos
Because the tasty cumbia if you dance it loose and opening your arms
Y esta es la cumbia
And this is the cumbia
Que mi novia sí sabe cómo se baila la cumbia
That my girlfriend really knows how to dance cumbia
Y al sonar los tambores, si no la invito me invita ella
And when the drums sound, if I don't invite her, she invites me
Y como enamorado yo la voy apretando

Me voy acomodando para bailar todo el tiempo así

altanera — haughty / proud
Altanera translates to "haughty" or "proud," but it carries a playful, almost teasing connotation in this context.
In the song, the woman is described as "sonriendo altanera," meaning she smiles proudly or defiantly as she dances. It's an interesting word choice because it hints at her confident, perhaps even a bit mischievous, personality on the dance floor, making her an enticing character.
