No Me Hagas Esperar Lyrics in English by J Alvarez
J Alvarez does not waste a second here. The hook is a straight-up request at the door: "Baby abre la puerta y no me hagas esperar" (Baby, open the door and don't make me wait), followed by "Quítate la ropa y déjame navegar" (Take off your clothes and let me sail). That "navegar" is the fun bit: he treats her body like an ocean to explore, and the English tag "All night long" tells you exactly how long the trip lasts.
The verses build the scene like a slow-jam checklist. First come "los besos, palabras y caricias" (the kisses, words and caresses), then "Ya prendí las velas, también los inciensos" (I already lit the candles, the incense too). He casts her as the star of the night with "De esta novela tú eres la protagonista" (in this soap opera you are the lead), a neat nod to the telenovela. Watch for Puerto Rican street spelling too: "pa' lao" is para el lado (to the side), so "échate pa' lao el drama" means put the drama aside. It is a bit much by the end, but that is the whole point of a reggaeton bedroom song.
