Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Bachata by Sofia Reyes from Spanish to English.
A ella le rompieron el corazón
She had her heart broken
No me acuerdo bien, creo que fue un tal Ramón
I don't remember well, I think it was a guy named Ramón
El punto es que la hacía llorar y sin razón
The point is that he made her cry for no reason
Hasta que no pudo más
Until she couldn't take it anymore
Y una noche lo dejó y se fue a bailar
And one night she left him and went out to dance
Pasó de ser perreo a bachata
She went from perreo to bachata
Muy fan del coqueteo y del mezcal
A big fan of flirting and mezcal
Está más guapa
She looks more beautiful
En la pista se desata
She unleashes herself on the dance floor
Se tapa y se destapa, disfruta la soltería
She covers up and uncovers herself, enjoying her singleness
Nadie la atrapa
No one can catch her
Dice que está en una etapa
She says she's in a phase
Porque una relación ella no quiere todavía
Because she doesn't want a relationship yet
Bailamos bachata
We dance bachata
Bailamos bachata
We dance bachata
Bailamos bachata
We dance bachata
Bailamos bachata
We dance bachata
Ya no se mete con cualquier pendejo
She no longer gets involved with just any idiot
Ese baile, baile, baile es baile viejo
That dance, dance, dance is old news
Decide cómo y cuándo a su antojo
She decides how and when at her whim
Lo demás está de más
The rest is irrelevant
Y cada noche ella se arregla para bailar
And every night she gets ready to dance
Pasó de ser perreo a bachata
She went from perreo to bachata
Muy fan del coqueteo y del mezcal
A big fan of flirting and mezcal
Está más guapa
She looks more beautiful
En la pista se desata
She unleashes herself on the dance floor
Se tapa y se destapa, disfruta la soltería
She covers up and uncovers herself, enjoying her singleness
Nadie la atrapa
No one can catch her
Dice que está en una etapa
She says she's in a phase
Porque una relación ella no quiere todavía
Because she doesn't want a relationship yet
Bailamos bachata
We dance bachata
Bailamos bachata
We dance bachata
Bailamos bachata
We dance bachata
Bailamos bachata
We dance bachata
Bailamos bachata
We dance bachata
