Lola, Lola Lyrics in English by Ricky Martin

Castidad translates to "chastity" or "purity." It's a word with a strong, almost archaic, connotation that isn't commonly found in modern pop lyrics, making it stand out.

In "Lola, Lola," Ricky Martin sings, "Tus andares provocando mi castidad" (Your walk provoking my chastity). This line creates an intriguing tension, suggesting that Lola's allure is so powerful it challenges the singer's self-control or innocence, adding a layer of playful seduction to the song.

Ricky Martin's 'Lola, Lola' turns desire into an ocean wave, with Lola as the current the narrator can't swim against. He opens completely disarmed: 'Tus ojitos picoteando toda mi piel' [Your little eyes pecking at all my skin], and pushes the temptation all the way back to Eden — her kisses 'Saben a manzana del paraíso se Adán' [They taste like the apple from Adam's paradise], half lie and half truth.

He never resists, he just keeps naming how helpless he is. 'Para provocar una ola' [To cause a wave] turns her into a force of nature, and by the chorus he admits it outright: 'Qué más da, yo sigo detrás' [What does it matter, I keep following] and 'Solo sé que voy a vivir' [I only know that I'm going to live]. It plays less like a love song and more like a confession, repeated until the wave finally takes him.
