Travieso means 'mischievous' or 'naughty'. It's a playful and engaging word that adds a fun, lighthearted tone to the lyrics.
In the song, Macaco sings, "En la guerra de los besos, el más travieso ganará" (In the war of kisses, the most mischievous will win). This line personifies kisses as a playful competition, suggesting that a little bit of playful mischief is key to winning someone's affection. It's a charming and memorable way to describe a romantic interaction.
La Guerra De Los Besos turns the idea of a battle upside-down: instead of weapons, Macaco and Ana Mena arm themselves with kisses, hugs, and playful promises. Over a sunny Latin-pop groove, they strike a tongue-in-cheek deal — “tengo un trato, dame besos todo el rato.” Money, maps, cruises… none of that matters when a quick peck, a slow kiss, or a laugh-filled stroll can make you feel richer than gold. Every line reminds us that feeling is the only language lovers truly need, and silence is impossible when lips are busy talking.
The chorus is a wake-up call to live in the present: don’t save your “I love you” for tomorrow, don’t store your desires for later. The song celebrates spontaneity, inviting you to fan the flames of passion before time slips away. In this playful “war,” the most mischievous kisser wins — and the listener wins too, walking away with a smile, a shimmy, and the urge to plant a kiss on someone right now.
