Home / Lyrics Translation / Marama / Nena

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Nena by Marama from Spanish to English.

Intro

Dance, babe, with Márama

Verse 1

We're two strangers

That want to get to know each other very well

I'm telling you now and I just saw you

You make whoever sees you fall in love

Let's get our bodies together

To see how it goes for us

To confirm that it's true

Your very sensual figure

Chorus 1

It's that you've already driven me crazy

I know that you love to stir it up

Babe, I want

With you, to be a gentleman

Chorus 1

Let that happen

Well, let that happen

Whatever has to happen

Chorus 2

Babe, I want

With you, to be a gentleman

Chorus 2

Let that happen

Well, let that happen

Whatever has to happen

You have experience in love

And you prefer lapses out of control

All casual, nothing ideal

Kind of occasional, almost illegal

I love how you dance

Your moves trap me

If I steal a kiss from you

In recognition

Don't get mad

It was only an attempt

It's that you've already turned me

I know that you love to stir it up

Babe, I want

With you, to be a gentleman

Let that happen

Well, let that happen

Whatever has to happen

Babe, I want

With you, to be a gentleman

Let that happen

Well, let that happen

Whatever has to happen

Babe, I want

With you, to be a gentleman

Let that happen

Well, let that happen

Whatever has to happen

Babe, I want

With you, to be a gentleman

Let that happen

Well, let that happen

Whatever has to happen

Dance, babe, with Márama

SONG MEANING

Get ready to hit the dance floor! In “Nena,” Márama paints a lively scene where two total strangers lock eyes across a party. The singer is instantly mesmerized by the girl’s confidence and magnetic moves. He calls her nena (a playful way to say “baby” or “girl”) and politely offers to be her caballero – a gentleman – yet he also invites her to let the night unfold without overthinking it. Their chemistry is electric, driven by curiosity, flirtation, and the thrill of the unknown.

As the beat pulses, the lyrics celebrate carefree attraction: stolen kisses, playful teasing, and the idea that sometimes the best connections happen when you stop planning and just dance. It is about embracing spontaneity, enjoying the moment, and discovering someone new through rhythm and movement. In short, “Nena” is a joyful reminder that a single song, a spark of courage, and a shared groove can turn complete strangers into unforgettable partners for the night.
