Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Mariposas En La Panza by Santiago Cruz from Spanish to English.
Ella se enamoró
She fell in love
Tenía 75 y como una adolescente
She was 75 and like a teenager
Entiende que se puede vivir de amor
She understands that one can live from love
Y siente mariposas en la panza
And she feels butterflies in her stomach
Cuando se lo encuentra
When she meets him
Ella lo enamoró
She made him fall in love
80 inviernos le han pasado
80 winters have passed for her
Y hoy se siente renovado
And today she feels renewed
Con la idea de que el amor
With the idea that love
Jamás los tuvo abandonados
Never abandoned them
Y esperó el día adecuado
And she waited for the right day
Para encontrarse
To meet each other
Quizás su piel este marchita
Maybe her skin is withered
Pero sus latidos gritan
But her heartbeats scream
Nunca es tarde
It's never too late
Ella espera ilusionada
She waits excitedly
Que le lleve a caminar
For him to take her for a walk
Nunca es tarde
It's never too late
Y el le dice que es hermosa
And he tells her she's beautiful
Que le llena el corazón
That she fills his heart
Nunca es tarde
It's never too late
Y ella lleva pañoleta
And she wears a headscarf
Y se siente muy coqueta
And she feels very flirtatious
Nunca es tarde
It's never too late
Y el le lleva su sombrero
And he wears his hat for her
Cuando ya se ha ido el sol
When the sun has already set
Es el primer amor
It's their first love
Ninguno de los dos había entregado
Neither of them had given
A nadie su pasado
Their past to anyone
Hoy sus manos se ven temblar
Today their hands tremble
Son cómplices de años dorados
They are accomplices of golden years
Con su cuerpos ya cansados
With their bodies already tired
Sus ojos plenos de amor
Their eyes full of love
Ya había perdido la esperanza
She had already lost hope
De saber de que se trata
To know what it's about
Pasar los días de a dos
To spend the days together
No importa se ha tardado
It doesn't matter that it took so long
Tal vez este fue el día adecuado
Maybe this was the right day
Para encontrarse
To meet each other
Quizás su piel este marchita
Maybe her skin is withered
Pero sus latidos gritan
But her heartbeats scream
Nunca es tarde
It's never too late
Ella espera ilusionada
She waits excitedly
Que le lleve a caminar
For him to take her for a walk
Nunca es tarde
It's never too late
Y el le dice que es hermosa
And he tells her she's beautiful
Que le llena el corazón
That she fills his heart
Nunca es tarde
It's never too late
Y ella lleva pañoleta
And she wears a headscarf
Y se siente muy coqueta
And she feels very flirtatious
Nunca es tarde
It's never too late
Y el le lleva su sombrero
And he wears his hat for her
Cuando ya se ha ido el sol
When the sun has already set
Cuando ya se ha ido el sol
When the sun has already set
