Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Noche No Es Para Dormir by Mano Arriba from Spanish to English.

Cumbia, babe

This is Mano Arriba

I make it clear that we're nothing

But if it were up to me

We would've been everything

Up until that minute that I wrote you

A message asking

If you felt like going out with me

And the classic answer

Tonight I'm going out with my friends

well

Alright then

I'll leave you on read

And we'll see each other

Like hell I'm gonna stay at home

Stuck in bed in my pajamas

While you're out on a spree having fun

Right now the night is calling me

The taxi at the door is waiting for me

I can play that game too

So go with your friends

Better, that way there are no witnesses

I'm going out

Because the night isn't for sleeping

So go with your friends

Better, that way there are no witnesses

I'm going out

Because the night isn't for sleeping

The night isn't for sleeping

I make it clear that we're nothing

But if it were up to me

We would've been everything

Up until that minute that I wrote you

A message asking

If you felt like going out with me

And the classic answer

Tonight I'm going out with my friends

well

Alright then

I'll leave you on read

And we'll see each other

Like hell I'm gonna stay at home

Stuck in bed in my pajamas

While you're out on a spree having fun

Right now the night is calling me

The taxi at the door is waiting for me

I can play that game too

So go with your friends

Better, that way there are no witnesses

I'm going out

Because the night isn't for sleeping

So go with your friends

Better, that way there are no witnesses

I'm going out

Because the night isn't for sleeping

The night isn't for sleeping

Like hell I'm gonna stay at home

Stuck in bed in my pajamas

While you're out on a spree having fun

Right now the night is calling me

The taxi at the door is waiting for me

I can play that game too

So go with your friends

Better, that way there are no witnesses

I'm going out

Because the night isn't for sleeping

So go with your friends

Better, that way there are no witnesses

I'm going out

Because the night isn't for sleeping

The night isn't for sleeping

SONG MEANING

La Noche No Es Para Dormir is a fiery cumbia anthem that turns a simple text-message snub into a declaration of freedom. The singer admits that “we’re nothing, but we could have been everything,” yet when the other person chooses a night out with friends, she refuses to stay home in pajamas. Instead, she grabs a taxi, meets the call of the nightlife, and vows to play the same game – if you can go have fun, so can I.

Packed with witty lines and catchy repetition, the song shines as an ode to self-confidence and spontaneity. Its upbeat rhythm from the Dominican Republic invites listeners to swap disappointment for dancing shoes, reminding us that tonight – and every night – is made for living, laughing, and moving to the music, not for sleeping.
