Las Dudas Lyrics in English Sebastian Yatra , Aitana
Presos literally means "prisoners" or "imprisoned." It comes from the verb prender (to seize or capture) and is often used to talk about people who are locked up.
In the song, "Las dudas nos hicieron presos" means "doubts made us prisoners." Yatra uses it metaphorically to show how their own uncertainty and hesitation trap them, as if they were locked in a prison of doubt instead of freely living their love story.
Sebastián Yatra (Colombia) and Aitana (Spain) turn a classic love triangle into an emotional roller-coaster. In “Las Dudas” the singers play two people who have fallen for each other even though one of them is already in another relationship. Airports, text messages and sleepless nights set the stage: every mile apart feeds uncertainty, and every unanswered ¿qué pasará? hurts a little more. They feel trapped by doubts that are “prison bars,” yet they dream of one decisive kiss that could unlock a brand-new story together.
Under the catchy pop melody, the lyrics ask a tough question: should you stick with the safe choice or gamble on the sparks that flip your world upside down? Yatra admits he arrived late but promises he will stay longer; Aitana wrestles with the fear of letting go of what is “sure” for something “uncertain.” Their duet captures the push-and-pull of modern love, where timing, distance and indecision collide. Will they pack their bags for a shared future, or keep living half-written lives? The song leaves the answer open, inviting listeners to confront their own doubts—and maybe find the courage to kiss them away.
