Maracas Lyrics in English PXNDX

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Maracas by PXNDX from Spanish to English.
Intro
I'm going to tell the story
About two boys that in their youth
Intro
Used to serenade the same girl
Time separated them, and it was also time
That took care of reuniting them again
Intro
And this was what happened at the reunion
Verse 1
Friend, come, I'll buy you a drink
You don't drink? Fine, I'll buy you a coffee
That I want to remember the crazy days
From yesterday, when we were sixteen
Alright, tell me, what's happened with your wife?
I'm sure she left you for being unfaithful
Remember that I used to send her roses
But your carnation won her over more
Chorus 1
We brought serenades together
Together all the way to that balcony
You the guitar and I maracas
She fifteen and we sixteen
We brought serenades together
Together all the way to that balcony
I the guitar and you maracas
She fifteen and we sixteen
Verse 2
Just because you're my friend I confess to you
I got divorced, but I never forgot her
I miss her gaze, I dream of her return
I love her more than when I got married
Chorus 2
Let's serenade together
They must know this
I the guitar and you maracas
Win her over, love her
Like when we were sixteen
We brought serenades together
Together all the way to that balcony
You the guitar and I maracas
Win her over, love her
Outro
Like when we were sixteen
Like when we were sixteen
Like when we were sixteen
Like when we were sixteen

SONG MEANING

Maracas is a nostalgic tale of friendship, rivalry, and love that refuses to fade. The song opens like a campfire story: two teenage buddies armed with a guitar and maracas take turns serenading the same 15-year-old girl beneath her balcony. Fast-forward to adulthood, and life has pulled the friends apart. When they finally reunite over coffee, they laugh about their wild sixteen-year-old days and reveal what became of that youthful triangle.

The conversation soon turns bittersweet. One friend, now divorced, admits he never stopped loving the girl they once sang to. Instead of jealousy, the old bond rekindles their camaraderie. They decide to relive their serenading glory—guitar, maracas, and all—in hopes of winning her heart once more. The song captures the magic of second chances, the power of music to bridge time, and the reminder that some youthful dreams are worth chasing again, just like when they were sixteen.
