Intro 1

Mami, turn on the radio, switch on the TV

Mami is often used informally to refer to a girlfriend, or wife, although the official meaning is 'mum', similarly to how couples in English call each other 'baby'

And don't bother me, 'cause today the national team plays

'La Sele' is short for 'La Selección' which means 'The National Team'

Take the turn, take the L, if you're not cheering

Mami, turn on the radio, switch on the TV

And don't bother me, 'cause today the national team plays

Take the turn, take the L, if you're not cheering

Verse 1

Today is a day of football, party and reggaeton

Call the neighbors, bring out the TV

The team is tough and wants to be the champion

Save energy to cheer the goal

I bring it down with my chest and score with a volley

After the match, there's also a fight

The buddy is bringing the cold ones

... the cold beers

In the street, you can already hear the excitement

Football fan since I was a kid

Close the block 'cause today my national team plays

And today Lucho Díaz scores

How skilled, what a beast, what a player

Bring out the flags, bring out the drum

The coolest has arrived, the Tricolor

With the heat from the coast to add flavor

SOG, change the flow, put it in the groove

In the stands, an avalanche and the national team on the field

Whoever falls, gets up and wins the rematch

How sharp, look at how it hooks

Chorus 1

How nicely you dance it, how nicely you move it, my love

Wherever you go, I go

Make me a starter, baby, I'm a good player

You have me focused

How nicely you dance it, how nicely you move it, my love

Wherever you go, I go

Make me a starter, baby, I'm a good player

You have me focused

Verse 2

Passing to the player Daniel Muñoz

Passes to Mateus Uribe, passes to James Rodríguez

Lucho Díaz on the left side

Switching sides to Arias

Arias passes the ball to Santos Borré

Back to the goal

Touches the ball on the chest, brings it down

Right foot, lifts the ball

Here comes Lucho, shoot it, Lucho

What a goal, a goal for Colombia!

Goal for Colombia

Or: Colombia scores

Chorus 2

How nicely you dance it, how nicely you move it, my love

Wherever you go, I go

Make me a starter, baby, I'm a good player

You have me focused

How nicely you dance it, how nicely you move it, my love

Wherever you go, I go

Make me a starter, baby, I'm a good player

You have me focused

Verse 3

Everyone up on their feet

This seems like the Barranquilla carnival

The thing is simple

If Juanes had the black shirt, well, I have the yellow one

Outro

Mami, turn on the radio, switch on the TV

And don't bother me, 'cause today the national team plays

Take the turn, take the L, if you're not cheering

Mami, turn on the radio, switch on the TV

And don't bother me, 'cause today the national team plays

Take the turn, take the L, if you're not cheering

Heartbeats increase and we embrace as one

All the Colombians

Colombia, Colombia, my beloved homeland, Colombia

SONG MEANING

El Ritmo Que Nos Une turns your living-room into a packed Colombian stadium, where the bass of reggaeton bumps in perfect sync with the roar of the crowd. Ryan Castro, alongside SOG and the voices of Selección Colombia, invites everyone to switch on the TV, crank up the radio, wave the yellow jersey and get ready for kickoff. The lyrics capture the electric build-up to a national team match: neighbors dragging the TV outside, cold drinks arriving, drums rolling, and the whole block exploding when Lucho Díaz smashes the ball into the net.

Between the play-by-play commentary and shout-outs to star players, Ryan flirts with a “mamacita,” promising to dance, score, and stay “in concentration” if she makes him her starter. The song blends football pride, Caribbean coastal flavor, and carnival vibes, reminding listeners that when La Tricolor hits the field, music, dance, and national unity score the winning goal together.
