You're too pretty to be alone

And she likes the Puerto Rican accent, she always finds out where I am

And I repeat, you're too pretty to be alone

And she likes the Puerto Rican accent, yes

If you want, I'll fly you out to the island, baby

You're too pretty to be alone

And she likes the Puerto Rican accent, she always finds out where I am

And I repeat, you're too pretty to be alone

And she likes the Puerto Rican accent, yes

If you want, I'll fly you out to the island, baby

I'll bring you down to PR

Who would have thought this started with a simple 'and who are you?'?

There are men who would die for you

But she says very few move her

Someone like you, I was looking for, she only comes around every now and then

I adapt, baby, I don't change

You tell me where you are, and I'll come over

I'll get you a private flight with the pilot

I let my diamonds do the dancing, I don't even dance

But you know very well that if it's for you, I'll do it

She's already tired of compliments and flattery

Near the lake, you and me in Condado

Her profile was on private

I hit that, 'cause I don't play around

I make it feel good, tell me what's wrong with that

Baby, I know you want to come

I'll do it to her like a grinder

I get wrapped up when I hear her moan

I want to keep going

Baby, I know you want to come

I'll do it to her like a grinder

I get wrapped up when I hear her moan

I want to keep going

You're too pretty to be alone

And she likes the Puerto Rican accent, she always finds out where I am

And I repeat, you're too pretty to be alone

And she likes the Puerto Rican accent, yes

If you want, I'll fly you out to the island, baby

You're too pretty to be alone

And she likes the Puerto Rican accent, she always finds out where I am

And I repeat, you're too pretty to be alone

And she likes the Puerto Rican accent, yes

If you want, I'll fly you out to the island, baby

Did you like this lyrics translation?

esmeril — emery / grinding wheel

Esmeril literally translates to "emery" or "grinding wheel." It's a very uncommon word to find in song lyrics, especially in a romantic or sensual context.

In this song, Myke Towers uses it in a suggestive way: "Se lo hago como un esmeril" (I do it to her like an emery/grinding wheel). This implies a rough, intense, or perhaps even abrasive action, adding a raw and unexpected layer to the song's intimate moments. It's a memorable and intriguing choice that stands out.

"ISLA" is Myke Towers doing what he does best: turning a compliment into an invitation. He opens with "Tú eres muy bonita como para estar solita" [You're too pretty to be alone], and from there the whole song is one long pitch to get her on a plane to Puerto Rico. He isn't subtle about the details either: "Te bajo pa' PR" [I'll bring you down to PR] and "Te traigo viaje' privado' con el pilot" [I'll bring you a private trip with the pilot] before naming the actual spot, "Cerca del lago, tú y yo en Condado" [Near the lake, you and me in Condado], the lagoon-side neighborhood in San Juan.

The island itself is the flex here. "Si tú quieres, pa' la isla te viajo, baby" [If you want, I'll travel to the island with you, baby], he says, treating a trip home like the ultimate move. It's a short, direct come-on built for a beach day, not a love song with much more going on underneath it, and it doesn't pretend to be.
