7 Días Lyrics in English by Romeo Santos
Asómate comes from the reflexive verb asomarse, which means to lean out, peek out, or show oneself at an opening like a window or door.
In the song, Romeo Santos begs his love, "Te lo ruego, asómate a tu balcón" (I beg you, lean out your balcony). Calling himself a "modern Romeo," he uses this highly visual verb to recreate the classic Romeo and Juliet balcony scene, perfectly setting the stage for his desperate and romantic serenade.
Have you ever had someone try to win you over with a grand, romantic gesture? Well, Romeo Santos takes it to a whole new level in this song! He's playing the part of a desperate lover, standing outside a woman's balcony, begging her to just look at him. He's not just standing there, though. He claims, "He venido aquí descalzo / Melancólico y borracho" (I've come here barefoot / Melancholy and drunk). He calls himself her "Romeo moderno" (modern Romeo) and a "demente seductor" (demented seducer), which is a pretty bold way to introduce yourself! He's so committed that he's ready to go to jail for her, as long as she throws him a kiss goodbye. It's all very dramatic and a little bit ridiculous, in the best way.
His big plan? He just needs seven days to make her fall completely in love. He has the entire week mapped out, and it moves fast. The "juego de seducción" (game of seduction) starts on Sunday. By Tuesday, he's making her his girlfriend in Paris. On Thursday, he's proposing with "el anillo down on my knees" (the ring, down on my knees). And by Friday? They're getting married! The whole whirlwind romance wraps up with a honeymoon on Saturday. It's an incredibly confident and over-the-top declaration of love, all packed into one week.
